The Trotsky
Good 5 Points 2009

A funny indie comedy about a 17 y/o student who believes he is the re-incarnation of Leon Trotsky, the communist revolutionary who created the Red Army. Leon Bronstein (Jay Baruchel) is the son of an upper middle-class family, who happens to share the same name as Trotsky. He’s also convinced…

Death of a Pres...
Barely OK 5 Points 2006

In the mockumentary Death of a President, reality becomes blurred with fiction, as George W. Bush is "assassinated.”

Played out as a pseudo-documentary that you may see on the History Channel, the movie integrates real film clips with staged scenes and fake interviews with actors portrayin…

Taxi Driver
Very Good 16 Points 1976

In my first viewing of Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver, I thought it was a very well made film and respected the fact that it was in fact one of the greatest films ever made. However, I simply didn’t like it as much as other people did. There was something missing that made Scorsese’s other films…

Man On Fire
OK 17 Points 2004

Denzel does a reasonable job as a bad-guy-you-want-to-root-for ex assassin on a vigilante mission. The movie drags on too long, but has its moments as a tug at your heart-strings human interest story as well as a macho take no prisoners action film.

The American
OK 22 Points 2010

I expected more from this George Clooney spy thriller set in a gorgeous Italian town. George plays an assassin “Jack” who is sequestered to a sleepy town for safe keeping only to be dragged in to another job. Of course, just like he isn’t supposed to, he befriends the locals – most notably the v…

Vantage Point
Barely OK 44 Points 2008

A fun and exciting movie that delivers even though it is via a “gimick”. At first I thought it wouldn’t work, but the progressive re-telling of the story from different vantage points worked well. Each time the story is told, we are revealed a little more about what was really going on. My only …
