Avoid knowing too much about “Lars and the Real Girl” starring Ryan Gosling, Emily Mortimer and Paul Schneider.
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
“Lars and the Real Girl” is an slightly absurdist and truly original story about family and love. It is incredibly well executed and the acting is ridiculously good. Ryan Gosling actually deserves an Oscar nomination. Do not seek out or read a plot summary of this film, should you stumble upon one. It was a […]

CineFile Video in Santa Monica, CA has very possibly made the coolest set of movie-related T-shirts ever, combining the best thing about heavy metal (the band logos of course!), and the best in legendary film directors from around the world. The only problem is they are saying that these hilarious designs are only available in […]

One of the toughest and most intangible things for a first-time director to capture onscreen is a consistent mood or tone.

It is familiar turf for Boston native Affleck, and his movie […]

Okay movie fans, you’ve had a week to mull over Eric’s choices for the Top 10 Best Sequels, now it’s time for “Sequels II: Electric Boogaloo.” J.D.’s list doesn’t include “The Godfather Part II” or “The Empire Strikes Back,” it does however throw down with one that is sure to make for lively conversation… […]

In addition, most of them were major letdowns. […]

As far as I can tell, the Farrelly Brothers did just one thing that’s different in this movie than they’ve done in their previous films. Unfortunately, I can’t tell you what that is without ruining the ending. So, lets talk about what they did…again. Eddie Cantrow (Ben Stiller) is a commitment-phobic sporting goods store owner […]
