Movie Review – Assassin’s Creed
The first thing Fassbender is guilty of is hiring a director of photography who doesn’t own a light kit.
Movie Review – Manchester By The Sea
Kenneth Lonergan’s deeply truthful drama is one of the year’s best films.
Movie Review – Girl on the Train
About halfway through the movie, I came to the following realization: “This movie is a real downer.”

OSCAR NOMINEE MOVIE REVIEW – SELMA
For all who are uninitiated, “Selma” is not just about Martin Luther King Jr, although he is a key player in its history. Just as fascinating are all the supporting players that were integral to the historical events that took place in Selma, Alabama.

MOVIE REVIEW – BOYHOOD
I’m probably late to the game, but that does not prevent me from singing the praises of the best film (so far) of 2014.
“SAVING MR. BANKS” & THE PROBLEM WITH BIOPICS
I doubt any conscious film viewer would deem it wise to take any one biopic as authority on a certain subject. Any individual movie cannot be an authority over a whole, complicated life.

Movie Review – As Good as it Gets
One of the most entertaining pictures I’ve ever seen, extremely funny and quite emotionally affecting.
Movie Review – Blue Velvet
BLUE VELVET seems almost benign in our over stimulated, shock value society, but let me tell you it still holds its own where depravity is concerned.

Movie Review – Straight Time
Hoffman holds it all together – possibly his best performance ever.
Movie Review – Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
I go back and forth in my mind whether this or RAIDERS is the best of the series.
Movie Review – Being John Malkovich
Don’t expect any comic masterpiece.

Contrary to popular belief Jack Torrance is not the antagonist in the film.
