Get ready, readers. All 4 of you. I’m about to lose all credibility.
I liked The House Bunny.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it was a good movie in terms of acting, writing or direction. But I did like it. I really did.
I used to watch Anna Faris with a wrinkled nose, begrudging her of [...]
Sliding Doors is a movie for girls. I am a girl. I love this movie.
It’s one of those WHAT IF movies that starts with WHAT IF Gwyneth Paltrow does a British accent?
WHAT IF she is adorable and misses her train so she doesn’t find out that her boyfriend with the bad haircut is cheating on [...]
Ratatouille just beat out Persepolis for Best Animated Feature at the Oscars (boo) and then it showed up from Netflix yesterday! Since it beat such an awesome (if subtitled) movie and has been advertised as The Best Reviewed Movie Of The Year, I was hoping it would be pretty great. But it was [...]
I Am Legend.
Will Smith is ripped.
Dogs are awesome.
Chicks suck at surviving the apocalypse.
Ok, maybe I’m on some totally misogynistic kick because like, my estrogen levels are depleted or something crazy, but once again, I hated this totally woman-centric ‘documentary’: Tierney Gearon: The Mother Project. So, the movie was actually made by a couple of dudes (if I’m remembering right, because IMDb sure doesn’t know) but it’s about this [...]
Friends with Money came on TV last night. I had been wanting to see it (I like Catherine Keener and am a little smitten with Jennifer Aniston. I mean, come on, who isn’t?) so I watched it all the way through.
It’s telling that this is the first review where I felt compelled to add an [...]
I really miss the days when it was totally acceptable for someone who looked like Dexter Fletcher (nice name!) to be the romantic lead opposite Ione Skye at the peak of her hotness. Actually, no, I don’t. But such was the world in 1989 and it was this world that brought us The Rachel Papers [...]
I was not a cool kid. My parents didn’t turn me on to The Beatles or The Who or, more relevantly, Bob Dylan, when I was 8 or anything like that. After talking to or seeing my parents, a lot of times I’m left wondering how I ended up with any kind of good taste [...]
So, it might be a tiny bit of a stretch to connect this LA Times article by my new favorite person Carina Chocano to my recent viewing of Shopgirl, since it’s not a comedy and does center around a woman, but the article really forced me to reconsider my feelings about the movie. I watched [...]
Last night I watched an episode of Last Comic Standing that has been sitting on my DVR for like a week. It was ho-hum for the most part. Arj Barker got kicked off which I was a little sad about, but he’s on Flight of the Conchords, so I think he’s doing OK for himself. [...]
