This post contains a complete list of all of the movie reviews I've posted to date. The list is sorted two ways for ease of use. The first section is sorted by rating (from best to worst), and the second section is sorted alphabetically by title.

For each film, I write a few sentences (as little as possible, really), then give it a star rating of 1- ( Read more... )

OVER HER DEAD BODY [ IMDB ]
I really like Paul Rudd (like REALLY), and I have nothing against a decent romantic comedy (especially when I’m feeling sad or under the weather), but this movie is definitely not going to make it into my rotation. Paul Rudd’s sweet smile and sensitive guy routine is the only reason I can manage to give it a star at all.

BURN AFTER READING [ IMDB ]
Frank summed it up best when, 15 minutes into the movie, he said, “This feels like one of those movies where everyone is dead by the end.” That may or may not be how it went, but that feeling is so dead-on. It’s awkward and sometimes uncomfortable, but mostly makes you curious enough to keep watching (at least once).

REVOLUTIONARY ROAD [ IMDB ]
Kate and Leo are perfect as a disenchanted, suburban couple in the 50s. They make you hope that they can be their best selves, all while having a gut feeling that they never will.

WALL-E [ IMDB ]
More haunting (and beautifully animated) science fiction film than children’s flick, WALL-E is simultaneously heartbreaking and uplifting. The first 40 minutes or so of the movie are completely without speech, and set the viewer up to love and root for the movie’s namesake.

FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL [ IMDB ]
This movie surprised me with how funny it is. It’s from the 40 Year Old Virgin/Superbad/Knocked Up family, but has a very different feeling (which is one I can appreciate a bit more). I have a soft spot for Kristen Bell, and she doesn’t disappoint… neither does Jason Segal (who plays the lead & wrote the movie).

THE AIR I BREATHE [ IMDB ]
The movie is broken up into a few different character stories, each based on a character who embodies one of four emotions: Happiness, Sorrow, Pleasure, and Love. The cast is mostly brilliant, and Sarah Michelle Gellar is especially great as Sorrow. Her scenes with Brendan Frasier are some of the best of the film. The ( Read more... )

RECOUNT [ IMDB ]
if the amount of anger i felt after watching this movie is any indication, it certainly did its job. the lies told and fraud committed during the 2000 presidential election (my first time to vote) will stick with me forever. this film is dead on in making you re-live those few months, but from behind the scenes this time, instead ( Read more... )

HANCOCK [ IMDB ]
the least heroic superhero movie i’ve ever seen. it’s lonely and depressing at times. jason bateman’s comedic relief is highly appreciated. he’s charming and just the right bit of dorky, as usual. charlize theron plays a much more central role in the film than the trailers led me to believe. it’s watchable, but only if you’re not ( Read more... )
