This could be the worst Jennifer Aniston movie ever!

Why? Well, let me get to that.

First off, what's it about?

Review: Munich

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

Is it all worth it?

Vengeance is a dirty business. It is the kind of thing we all contemplate, from the smallest gut reaction to the eventual harming of another human being. Yes, it is probably true that in some circumstances it is justified, but at what price?

Review: Fun with Dick and Jane

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  December 21, 2005 @ 11:59am

After witnessing many of the trailers and advertising campaigns for Fun With Dick and Jane, I was quite worried that this film would be another disastrous comedy. Well, I was pleasantly surprised.

Jim Carrey stars as Dick Harper, a sleek up-and-coming executive who has been dreaming about that all-important promotion.

Review: The Producers

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  December 16, 2005 @ 11:59am

What would it be like to see Broadway make its way onto the silver screen in such a way that the screen would be seamless with the stage?

Many of a great director has tried to capture the magic of Broadway onto a flickering movie screen. Many have failed, very few have succeeded.

There are many ways to accomplish such a lofty goal.

Review: The Producers

I love Mel Brooks â€" always have. Ever since Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder appeared in The Producers in 1968, Mr. Brooks has made me laugh.

Okay, when was the last time that we had a holiday movie that didn't involve Tim Allen, Santa Claus, an elf, or something nostalgic?

Well I am happy to report that the new holiday film, The Family Stone, is probably the best holiday film I have seen in years.

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  December 14, 2005 @ 11:59am

Three Burials has a lot to offer â€" it is a murder mystery, redemption film, and character study. The film is directed by and stars Tommy Lee Jones as ranch hand Pete Perkins, who falls to pieces after one of his best friends if suddenly murdered.

Review: King Kong

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  December 14, 2005 @ 11:59am

I have always had affection for the original 1933 classic monster film, King Kong. I am not sure why, but from such a young age I have been enthralled by "creature features". The thing that always stood out the most for me when it came to Kong was the over-the-top classic Hollywood ending that I am sure is one of the most memorable ever.

Review: King Kong

Posted by: Jeremy Maron  •  December 14, 2005 @ 11:59am

Okay, here's the deal. I though the first Lord of the Rings movie was so boring and long that I made a conscious decision to avoid the next two. Granted, it was pretty to look at, but all the walking, strolling, and traveling became tedious after awhile.

Review: Brokeback Mountain

Posted by: Tom Milroy  •  December 9, 2005 @ 11:59am

Director Ang Lee makes good movies: Sense and Sensibility, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and The Hulk â€" well, two out of three ain't bad. He also made Brokeback Mountain.

I admit, I was not looking forward to seeing this movie. A story of two gay men in 1960s Wyoming was about as appealing as watching The Princess Diaries again. But I was impressed.
