Beasts of the Southern Wild

Beasts of the Southern Wild

Review: This film has been critically acclaimed and talked about. I had really looked forward to seeing it, but I'm sorry to say that I wasn't impressed. There were some really good acting in it, but the story itself didn't move me one bit and I actually became a bit bored after a while. 

Rating: 5/10

Movie 43

Movie 43

Review: There is only one question that pops up in my head after watching this film. How the hell did the producers convince so many good actors to be apart of this flick?

Rating: 3/10


The Central Park Five

The Central Park Five

Review: This is a really well made and interesting documentary about The Central Park Five, and the injustices that they suffered at the hands of the legal and political system. I had never heard of the case before, but you don't have to in order to enjoy this one. One of the better documentaries in a long time.

Rating: 7/10

Jack Reacher

Jack Reacher

Review: I've never been a fan of Tom Cruise, far from it. But at the same time I have to admit that he has a knack for chosing his films. They are seldom really bad, just not that memorable. Jack Reacher is a good action flick, no more, no less. Worth watching when you want some easy entertainment.

Rating: 6/10

Louder Than a Bomb

Louder Than a Bomb

Review: Louder Than a Bomb is a documentary covering some of the teams competing for the world's largest poetry slam competion. With the risk of sounding cheesy, it was a really emotional watch. Getting to hear both the poetry itself, but also hear the stories of the poets themselves shows a lot of heart as well as talent. A recommended watch.

Rating: 7/10

Gangster Squad

Gangster Squad

Review: I had really looked forward to seeing this film. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. Sure, it was a nice homage to the old school gangster flicks, but it left me quite bored nonetheless.
