This film, which is about a bunch of wannabe …

“The Brothers Grimm” was released in 2005 and–at first glance–seemed to be an intelligent take on those stories that many of us grew up hearing about. I had learned, by way of living for several years with a roommate who majored in film, to be skeptical. If I had …

I should start by saying that I did not enjoy this book. Perhaps my expectations were too high going in and the only outcome was my disappointment. I’m not sure but the author does make a bold assertion when he suggests in the title that his book …

21 Jump Street isn’t the greatest movie ever. In my opinion, it isn’t even close. However, that doesn’t mean that this movie isn’t worth watching. I find that it has some cheesy moments, a slight romance, but mostly comedy and action. I appreciate a good hardcore guns blazing shooting …
