Book of Eli

(2010)

Somehow this goofy Christian redux of The Road Warrior with amazing look and feel ends up a little flat.

From Time to Time

(2009)

Weird sad and boring but I kinda liked it.

The Interview

(2014)

I don’t know if there’s ever been a better man for exactly this kind of job than Franco.

Guardians of the Galaxy

(2014)

If you’re lucky enough to miss the opening scene this movie might be the best of its ilk.

Dracula Untold

(2014)

 Only in your most desperate hour.

A Christmas Story

(1983)

 Hands down the ultimate Christmas movie.

Hear and Now

(2007)

I’m trying to find a reason not to say that this is the most important film I’ve ever seen but really this is the most important film I’ve ever seen.

The Hundred Foot Journey

(2014)

What foodie could’ve imagined a heartfelt movie about food produced by Oprah the foodie Winfrey.

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

(2004)

For being the coolest looking movie I’ve ever seen it sure was hard to get through.

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

(2001-03)

Yes they’re basically monster movies and yes the female characters have as much development as a drippy nosed 14 year old boy BUT every winter I watch them religiously with a fire going and candles burning and every winter I love them.

Her

(2013)

Her is to dialogue what Cirque du Soleil is to tents.

Jodorowsky’s Dune

(2013)

We’re supposed to come away wishing he had been allowed to make DUNE but if you’ve seen El Topo and Holy Mountain then you know that for all his stunning visuals he still had the narrative skills of a drunk cokehead.

Godzilla

(2014)

They had a great thing goin until some dumbass decided to make it about kids losing their parents and thus insuring that it sucks.

Noah

(2014)

They got the look of the film right but then the movie is just one thing after another that they got wrong.
