The Karate Kid
The Karate Kid is best viewed through the eyes of today’s youth, as opposed to the eyes of aging fans (like me) of the original. I have a soft spot…
Solitary Man
There are some movies that do not add up to the sum of their parts. Solitary Man is one of those films. The acting is great. Michael Douglas, Susan Sarandon,…

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Ka-Ching! There’s no way this franchise won’t continue to make millions (upon millions upon millions), no matter what the critics - or any Twilight naysayers- might have to say about…
Get Him to the Greek
If you’re in need of a laugh, get yourself to a theater to see Get Him to the Greek. I went in not expecting too much – perhaps to be…
The A-Team
I don't remember much about The A-Team television show from the 1980s. I do remember my little brother was a big fan of the crew of misfits who traveled around…
Knight and Day
With star power like Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz you expect more than you get with Knight and Day. Not that it is a bad movie; it just doesn’t really…
El Secreto de Sus Ojos (The Secret in their Eyes)
El Secreto de Sus Ojos was the very deserving winner of the 2010 Academy Award for best Foreign Film. (I have to admit it is the only one of those…

Summer Movies
Summer is upon us and where are the blockbusters? Here is a list of some of the flix that people will be watching and talking about. Not too much that…
Robin Hood
No men in tights here. No borrowing from the rich to give to the poor either. This new Robin Hood is Ridley Scott's prequel to all that. We first meet…
Sex And The City 2
Did you enjoy the first Sex And The City movie? Did you gather up the gal pals (and maybe even some guy pals) to down a few cosmopolitans and watch…
Mother and Child
I’m not quite sure how I ended up watching Mother and Child instead of Shrek 4 this weekend, but I think it was the casting that ultimately roped me in.…
Babies
“Oh how cute!” That’s what I found myself saying out loud in the theater throughout the documentary Babies. (I’d apologize to those sitting around me if they weren’t all doing…
Letters To Juliet
Letters to Juliet is a total chick flick but (thankfully) not a weep-fest, so you can leave the tissues at home and bring on the popcorn! The consensus among the…
