Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
It’s as much part of the cannon as it is a satire spoofing it
-
Eat Pray Love
Gilbert's character sounds more like a spoiled post-grad than a successful author
-
The Other Guys
A delightfully hilarious yet all too by-the-book cop movie that pays homage to The Odd Couple
-
The Kids Are All Right
A quietly affecting welcome change of pace.
-
Salt
A gender-bending espionage caper that's puddle deep, but one hell of a ride.
-
Cyrus
A colorfully quirky rom-com from the post-mumblecore movement that sadly lands just wide of the mark.
TV
-
Rubicon
AMC's latest bid for greatness is both intriguing and confounding in equal measure.

The times they are a-changin.

A truly unique experience well worth the price of admission, which is nothing.

Red Dead Redemption
As solid a free-roaming adventure game as you will ever play.
