DVD Reviews: Lola Versus
Lola Versus Romantic comedies are rarely hip and sexy and generally suck these days. I’m blaming my generation. Callow, soulless, selfish film makers that think their self-obsession is hilarious. My whole generation wants to be some post modern Woody Allen. We want our romantic comedies to be funny glib post modern way while saying “I know how you feel.” This style can be pulled off Girls, on HBO, is an excellent example, its smart, funny, and poignant. So, how does Lola Versus stack ... continue reading...
DVD Reviews: Bait 3D
Bait 3D As you all know I get all gleeful and stuff during shark movies. No matter how bad I usually enjoy them (even Jersey Shore Shark Attack). So Bait is a no-brainer for me.

DVD Reviews: Delicacy
Delicacy [Blu-ray] Audrey Tautou is absolutely adorable in everything she is in. It’s a problem. Not unlike Audrey Hepburn, they can do nothing and just frankly filled with close up shots and you will still be captivated. Her ability to own the screen is simply a pleasure to watch. Whether she is sad, happy, shocked or even random, Audrey can seamlessly connects with the audience at its very core. So I am a complete sucker for her in anything. Will this continue with Delicacy? The scenario ... continue reading...
