Intelligent Filmmaking, or Subpar Execution?
+ Risky business.
+ A winner.
Without a doubt, I love the film Michael Clayton. A big proponent for me about why I love films is the atmosphere they give off, and Michael Clayton oozes atmosphere. The dark blues, the deep blacks, the lingering almost haunting background music and the few loud, bright explosions make you jump. ...

Paramount Vantage
There Will Be Greed
+ Awesome!
Director Paul Thomas Anderson ("Magnolia") achieves something very rare in films, he manages to create a really extraordinary film whose main character Daniel Plainview played by Daniel Day-Lewis ("My Left Foot") is for the most part reprehensible. With the exception of rare moments of affection ...

Talk to Me (Widescreen Edition) 36 reviews
Don Cheadle, Chiwetel Ejiofor
Universal Studios, 2007
One of the best movies I have seen in a long time
+ 3.5-Highlights the life and the impact of 1960's radio icon
+ Just my opinion
This is a great movie-one of the best I have seen in years. You are just riveted by the story and waiting for the next thing Petey Green (Don Cheadle) is going to say. You also can't wait to see how other people in the story react to Petey, because that is always funny. Chiwetel Ejiofor's portrayal ...

Into the Wild (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)230 reviews
Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden
Paramount, 2008
Excellent
+ Moving and Inspiring
+ Theories and conjecture
If you watch the first 5 or so minutes, you might expect this movie to be lame, but it most certainly is not. Inspired by an amazing true story, it's a very powerful film about a guy you really want to learn about. Fine writing, fine acting, and amazing scenery. I'm impressed.
