I went to see 2012 because New Moon was sold out and although I give Dawn a hard time about not wanting to see the vampire flick, I think it will actually be pretty decent. I was happy to take in 2012 though because I have wanted to see it ever since I took in [...]

No Comments »Maybe we should lighten up on Angelina Jolie?
November 16th, 2009 Chris Doelle Okay – so I’ve never been a big fan of Angelina Jolie. Sure, she’s not hard to look at. Sure, she has some amazing… uh, assets. I finally saw the movie that took her personal quest and made it visual – Beyond Borders. Okay, I admit it. I started writing this review about fifteen minutes [...]

October 22nd, 2009 Chris Doelle It seems that as things get settled into a more normal routine, I am remembering more and more films that I have seen and not reviewed. First off, let’s cover the most recent film I have seen first – Where the Wild Things Are. I was struck by a few things with this film. First, [...]

June 24th, 2009 Chris Doelle I’ve fallen woefully behind in my movie reviews, so I’m not gonna waste any time – let’s jump right in. Since this is going to be a very long post, I thought I would list the ones that I reviewed up front so you can decide which ones you want to read. They range from [...]

June 4th, 2009 Chris Doelle I have to admit that when I saw the previews for Kung Fu Panda, I was not at all inspired to see it. Hey, I dig the animated/CGI children’s movie genre, but this one just didn’t do anything for me. Then, in a moment of boredom while being unable to locate anything decent on Netflix, [...]

May 20th, 2009 Chris Doelle It’s been a while since I did a film review and I figure its high time I went ahead and knocked a few out. I have no choice but to start with the film that surprised me the most. Sure, I knew it would be all that and more when it came to everything that [...]

April 9th, 2009 Chris Doelle I watched Quantum of Solace tonight and have to say that Daniel Craig still remains one of my favorite Bonds – if not THE favorite. One of the few beefs I had with the film is minor when laid side-by-side with the entire 007 movie archive. Bond has always been over-the-top on impossible jumps, explosions, [...]

April 8th, 2009 Chris Doelle I finally saw the 1989 documentary Roger & Me by Michael Moore. I have stated that I am not a big fan of Moore’s. I often agree with his point of view, but find his documentaries a bit over-the-top and hyperbolic. All the extra theatrics and political slanting take away from his credibility and thus [...]

January 25th, 2009 Chris Doelle It feels like a crime to review these two films in the same post, but I thought the irony of seeing two excellent films back-to-back that are so wildly different was too much to pass up. The first one I saw was Zack and Miri Make a Porno starring Seth Rogan and Elizabeth Banks. It [...]

August 23rd, 2003 Chris Doelle I saw Tears of the Sun on DVD the other day. I was really expecting it to be a good movie despite the fact that it tanked at the theaters, because I am a big Bruce Willis fan. Well, turns out – it tanked for a reason…. it stunk. The writing was pretty lame – [...]
