Way late review: Contagion
Sterile. That is the first word that comes to mind when describing Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion, which is strange considering the film centers on a killer disease that threatens to finish off all of mankind. Maybe the paradox of a cold and calculated film about a disgusting and deadly disease is intentional. Outbreak it is not. …
Way late review: Meek’s Cutoff
If Meek’s Cutoff is close at all to portraying the life of those braving the conditions of the Oregon Trail in 1845 then it was incredibly brutal and, at the same time, a little boring to observe. Of course, no one was observing it. That’s what those of us in this century get to do …
Way late review: Candyman: The David Klein Story
Way late review: Let Me In
For those looking for an exciting horror film, Let Me In is almost sure to disappoint. It’s not that there aren’t moments of suspense or gore, but it is a much quieter film. Almost meditative in its telling of the story of a lonely boy who finds solace in a young female vampire. Some have …
Way late review: Warrior
I didn’t really intend on watching Warrior so soon after watching the entire Rocky saga. Netflix has this way of sometimes sending discs in not quite the order you expect. I wasn’t sure that I was ready to watch a movie that was likely so close to the Rocky flicks. Tom (Tom Hardy) and Brendan …
Way late review: A Little help
The independent dramedy. So full of cliches and quirkiness. And yet, I tend to have a soft spot for them. Enter A Little Help. A small film with some laughs and some tender moments. Laura (Jenna Fischer) is not having her “best life now” as a famous (ahem) preacher in the states would probably put …
Way late review: Bill Cunningham New York
Fashion and the industry that revolves around it are not my forte. Therefore it might come as a surprise that I enjoyed Bill Cunningham New York, a documentary that centers on an 80-year-old photographer who captures what people are wearing in New York City. While fashion is Bill’s obsession, the director (Richard Press) obsesses over …

Way late review: Dolphin Tale
No one tell the FBI that schools all around the country are likely violating copyright law by showing flicks to the public for the price of a suggested donation. These thieves are harming Hollywood and must be stopped! I can neither confirm or deny that I saw Dolphin Tale at such an event. Some might …
Way late review: Best Worse Movie
Is it any less bold to claim that you’ve made the worst movie ever or that you’ve made the best? Both are relative claims and hold little validity either way. Troll 2, the focus of the documentary Best Worse Movie, is said to be the worst movie ever. The zero (or near zero) scores on …
