Really Great
This epic TV miniseries follows ex Texas Rangers (Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones) as they steal horses in Mexico then get involved in a cattle drive to Montana in the 1880’s. A little Kitschy at times, but endearing to watch the pair banter back and forth and perform their manly cowboy roles. …

Was this the film that inspired the TV show ‘Friday Night Lights’? It could have been, except it has more humor and the drama isn’t as heavy.. In the big state of Texas, Football is king, it is the place where a winning team and its coach are revered, and not much else matters – including…

Can you really make an entire feature length film out of a single day’s events following JFK’s assasination? Well, yes – by following four different stories: Zapruder the famous film-maker, The Oswalds, the law, and the emergency room doctors and nurses. The result is a bit muddled, but keeps …

The movie that sparked the highly successful TV series did so for a reason. Immersion in to small town football drama is like no other. Let Billy Bob Thornton and cast take you away for a while in to the land of Texas gridiron.

Finn Wittrock and Aaron Eckhart are great in this story about Freddie Steinmark. Freddie, who, despite never being made an all American, was identified by the Great UT Coach Royal as “his All American”. His heart and determination helped his team win a national championship, and his fight with…

I think this movie does an admirable job of portraying the struggle that youth in challenging situations must face: break free or succumb to environmental pressures. Cuba Gooding Jr was a top rate choice for the role as he exudes a look of genuine integrity. I really liked Laurene Fishburne as t…

Kevin Spacey is a natural as a weed-addicted psychotherapist to the stars on a downward spiral. Thanks to Kevin and the wacky cast of characters around him – all of whom behave in eccentric and badly behaving LA kind of ways, this movie is actually pretty funny. It is however a drama, with deep …

This movie is indeed the hallmark it is supposed to be. No matter that it was produced in the 50’s, the story works: kids in families with issues often end up with issues themselves. James Dean “Jimmy’s” weak father and naggy mother, Natalie Wood “Judy’s” shame spreading parents, to Sal Mineo "P…

Natalie Portman kills it as Jackie Kennedy. Who knows how accurate the post JFK death portrayal is, but her portrayal of Jackie’s poise, controlled speech, and control is a sight to behold. The vision of Camelot was all Jackie’s, and when the rug was pulled out from under her anyone but her wou…

Every possible plot you’d want from a western is weaved in to Tombstone, and a stellar cast makes this film a must-see on any fan of the genre’s “must see” list. Kurt Russel, Val Kilmer (who is great imho), Sam Elliott, Bill Paxton , Powers Boothe, Charlton Heston, Jason Priestley…. Need I g…
