In 2013, our main Doppelganger films were Olympus Has Fallen and White House Down. The former was mostly serious with some jokes, the latter, full on action comedy in the middle of summer. And you know what? I liked both of them. They had their charms and were unique enough from each other that I …

I, Frankenstein
When I first saw the trailer for I, Frankenstein. I sighed. I like Aaron Eckhart, technically. Or at least, I liked Thank You For Smoking. My favorite part of The Dark Knight was Two-Face. But there is an even bigger list of movies that I don’t like him in. Man. Maybe it is that I …

Guest Review: Erased

Olympus Has Fallen
As you all know, I am a patriotic American, so if there is a movie out there that will increase my patriotism, by golly, I will see it! Not that I needed any more convincing to see Olympus Has Fallen. I love a lot of the actors in this movie, even though certain male leads …

Love Happens
Never heard of Love Happens. But can Love Happens end the recent string of “bad movies with Love in the title?” Nope. Burke (Aaron Eckhart) is a motivational speaker/grief counselor type person. His wife died in a car accident. He was sad over it, wrote a book. Now he is famous, and definitely over it …

Meet Bill
About a year and a half ago a local independent rental store was going out of business. Unfortunately I didn’t realize this until the last day, but I was still able to walk away with about twenty movies. Needless to say a lot of them didn’t work. Including Meet Bill! I was sad. But turns …

Conversations With Other Women
I personally feel a bit British just saying the title of this movie. Conversations With Other Women. It feels so proper, and pretensions. Yet at the same time, so adulterous. While also potentially having a lot of talking. And by that I mean tons of talking. That is all the movie is! But good dialogue …

The Dark Knight
Hooray! Review 450! That in no way is a real significant number, just that it is divisible by 50. Normally this is where I do a big long review of a bad movie, spoil the shit out of it, and make you laugh. Twilight series and High School Musical stuff so far. But the next …

The Rum Diary
Ah ha! A Johnny Depp movie! Not only that, The Rum Diary is the kind of prequel to everyone’s favorite movie from 1997, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. That movie and this one were both written by the same guy, and both kind of about his life. The Rum Diary was written in the …

Rabbit Hole
Hey readers! Do you want to feel super sad and upset? Do you want to feel raw emotion of anger and more sadness? I guess I am asking if you want to cry. Because then it is pretty easy to suggest the film, Rabbit Hole. Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart give a great performance here …
