Perfect
The War To End All Wars gets its closeup in 1917, titled after a year little known to we 21st century people. WWI has been largely terra incognita at the movies, even as WWII flicks are dime a dozen, a Dirty Dozen. The struggle against t…

Really Great
Stephen King’s version of Nebraska corn farming life. Take a down home farmer in 1922, throw in a twisted psyche, and voila – a macabre cornfield horror-drama. Don’t let the horror genre label turn you off; It is very well done. Even Edgar Allen Poe and Alfred Hitchcock would be impressed.

OK
Modestly entertaining, this fictionalized depiction of the real life collegiate geeks who card count their way to blackjack millions fails to establish more than a smidgen of dread, drama or depravity. It’s like drawing an 11 against an ace: Excitement dims pretty quickly when a quality set-up e…

Barely OK
Ok, I must admit up front – 21 Grams could not keep me awake at the end of a long and tiring day. While I was alert, I experienced a very confusing story with some darned good dramatic acting about people who are brought together under tragic circumstances. So, what can I say? If you appreciate …

Great
This emotional look at the tragic events outside Oslo brings up many difficult subjects. Mass murder, extremism, socio-cultural dealings with all of it and a unique and unforgettable glimpse in to the hearts of the Norwegian people. Not to be missed.

Good
Highly stylized though affecting movie brings a comik sensibility to an ancient battle. I ended up liking it more than I thought I would, since King Leonidas makes a great hero and his wife a worthy Queen.

Very Good
300: Rise of an Empire is Greek history through a fantasy lens darkly, prequel and sequel to the ‘06 hit about King Leonidas and his band of 300. The new movie’s nearly 4x Reality factor stems from Frank Miller’s graphic novel, full of vainglorious liberties, supernatural contrivances and hist…
