New reviews...

will be coming as soon as I get out to see some freakin' movies. I'm looking at checking out Very Long Engagement or Alexander.

Yes, I know Alexander is supposed to suck. I never listen to reviews on Ollie Stone movies...I don't think most critics appreciate his style fully. His movies are never intended to be viewed as accurate recordings of history. He makes impressionistic, over-the-top thrillers about real-world events, and I usually find them invigorating, entertaining and expertly put together. This includes typically maligned Stone films like Nixon, JFK, Wall Street, Born on the Fourth of July, The Doors, and will quite possibly include Alexander, if I ever get around to actually seeing it.
