(500) Days of Summer Review

Gary Smith

This is not a love story, or so the tagline goes. It’s also not a chick flick, which in this instance works for the films benefit. (500) Days of Summer is a romantic-comedy that is completely different from every other film in the genre, and that fact makes the movie worth watching and much more realistic. It’s the story of Tom Hansen (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and his relationship with Summer Finn (Zooey Deschanel) over the course of 500 days. Tom, a greeting card writer, is smitten with Summer…

The Big Lebowski Review

William McPherson2 Comments

The Big Lebowski is a difficult film for me to review. I have probably spent more time watching this movie than any other movie in existence, but yet, I cannot say that it truly ranks with the all time classics of cinema and maintain my editorial credibility here. From a plot point of view, it’s simply a tangled mess that collapses in on itself many times over. It’s based, loosely, on the classic novel and film, ‘The Big Sleep’ by Raymond Chandler, but instead of having the protagonists be ace…

Dead Man Wins Election Review

Gary Smith

With Election Day just a few hours away, it's the perfect time to sit down and read a book that does a great job of showing just how useless politicians are and how corrupt many of these people are. This book is packed with tales of stupid public servants, corrupt elections, the idiocy of voters, and any other "wacky and unbelievable" thing you can think of. If, for whatever reason, you haven't already lost all faith in government and the idea of elections, then this book will probably help push…

Wedding Crashers Review

Wedding Crashers is the story of John (Owen Wilson) and Jeremy (Vince Vaughn), who are two divorce mediators who go to weddings during wedding season (Spring) to pick up chicks and get some free food/alcoholic beverages. The film starts with the duo being shown in action at various weddings, weaving all sorts of lies to fit whatever persona's they use at each individual wedding. As the wedding season comes to a close, Jeremy talks John into crashing one last wedding, a wedding that Jeremy refers…

Airheads Review

William McPherson

Chazz and Rex are testing Chris Moore CHAZZ: Let me ask you a question. Which side did you take in the big Van Halen / David Lee Roth split? MOORE: Uh...what do you mean? (Chris Moore fidgets nervously.) MILO: What kind of question is that? CHAZZ: Which way did you go, man? Roth or Halen? MOORE: Van Halen? IAN: He's a cop. (Chazz tosses Chris Moore's wallet to the ground.) CHAZZ: Later, bacon. REX: Oink oink! MOORE: Come on, come on! That's strictly a judgment call, those guys sold a lot of…

The Other Guys Review

William McPherson1 Comment

The one remaining thought in my mind after having now watched ‘The Other Guys’ isn’t how good an action comedy it is, which it is, to be sure, or how funny a pair that Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg make, which they do, but that, I now, more than anything, need for there to be an entire movie pairing up Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson as badass detectives in a major metropolitan city. Though these two were not nearly as big a part of the movie as the trailers suggested they still…

Idiocracy Review

William McPherson1 Comment

“The Future Is A No Brainer.” “Damn… I’m pregnant again!” decries one trailer bound woman holding a home pregnancy test at the beginning of this film. It’s a shame this movie wasn’t released during last year’s election cycle, because Idiocracy is the perfect antidote to the socialistic liberal policy of financially rewarding and encouraging those families who keep having child after child even though they don’t have the means to support any of them monetarily, in order that there will be…
