Movie Review: Man on Fire (2004)

The hype that surrounds your average movie seems to be overwhelming. There is no way that one can travel about their daily business and not be hit with inundations of various movies that just bury you with advertisement, promotional gimmicks, and hopes for big profits. Man on Fire is a movie...

Music Review: Beck "Guero"

Again, I'm not so great at this review thing, but I liked this cd so much I felt compelled to write up a little review. Beck is one artist for me that consistently releases excellent albums you can put in the cd player and listen to on repeat. This cd is no exception, and maybe even a return to...

Movie Review: 1984 (1984)

A film by Michael Radford Clever. Very clever. This movie was filmed in 1984 during the months that were specified in George Orwell s novel. It was also released in 1984. This fit perfectly with the title and gave a nice contrast between Orwell s vision of the future and what the world was like...

Movie Review: To End All Wars

I thought this was just going to be another telling of "Bridge on the River Kwai". I think it is the same basic story and may be based on the same source material (though "River Kwai" is also from a Pierre Boulle novel). But, the basic form of the story and the origins may be the same, but midway...

Book Review: Life of Pi - Yann Martel

Life of Pi is the winner of the Booker Prize and was given a ridiculous amount of critical praise. It was given so much so that I was a little unsure about reading it, that it could not possibly live up to the hype. In one sense, I was right. The novel did not live up the hype of the critical...
