MOVIE REVIEW – PAIN & GAIN
In the end, Bay has a made a film struggling with the fact that it’s a Michael Bay film. It’s fun to watch the best parts peak through Bay’s usual main ingredient – excess.

MOVIE REVIEW – FINDING NEMO 3D
I’m the first to get cynical when it comes to 3D re-issues, reboots, remakes and all that. But Pixar movies are timeless, and I think should be back in theaters every five years or so, 3D or not.
MOVIE REVIEW – RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK
Is this the best movie ever made? Well, the great thing about movies is that arguing what the best one of all time is can keep you arguing until you pass out. But this is certainly my favorite, hands down.

HEY MOVIES, I GOT YOUR BACK
It’s a horrible tragedy when violence upsets something like a sporting or holiday event. But when violence mars the arts, I find it especially disturbing.

MOVIE REVIEW – TED
On the whole, I can recommend “Ted”. There are a ton of good laughs and if you’re a “Family Guy” fan, the faithful were out at the screening I went to and it was a huge crowd-pleaser.
MOVIE REVIEW – BRAVE
After “Cars 2”, it’s good to know that some of Hollywood’s best filmmakers can pick themselves up and dust themselves off so quickly.
