DVD Reviews: Cars 2

Cars 2 Was this bound to happen? Nothing could have topped Toy Story 3. Does Pixar’s first feature after Toy Story 3 have to be so bad? Unfortunately yes. Pixar could not have made modern animated classics for almost 20 years just to produce this film. This has to be someone’s fault. OK maybe I’m being too harsh. It was not that bad, but with Pixar the viewer expects a lot. It's amusing, it's comic, it's ostentatious, it's filled with fast, spy mischiefs, but it's also flat, and ... continue reading...

DVD Reviews: Winnie the Pooh

Winnie the Pooh While I know that I grew up on Winnie the Pooh I have lost all memory of it. I remember being obsessed with Ghostbuster, Nintendo, Thunder-Cats, Transformers and even My Pet Monster.

DVD Reviews: Rabbit Hole

Rabbit Hole I hate Nicole Kidman. I really have a lot of trouble watching her on screen. As a result, I was really apprehensive before starting this one. However when you turn over the cover of the jacket you see John Cameron Mitchell’s name in the directors place. I don’t expect you to know who he is, but his two previous features were amazing pictures about sexual awaking (one about transsexual culture and one about a whole variety of different types of commitments). Both of those films ... continue reading...
