  • Django Unchained 2012

    ★★★★★ Added

    Another winner from Tarantino. The cast is fantastic with DiCaprio, Waltz, and Sam Jackson being absolute scene stealers. Jamie Foxx is great as Django but has a more serious role that does not allow him to truly shine until the end. The script is very well written and Tarantino does a great job making the audience laugh and cheer in one moment, and feel disturbed in the next. The violence is everything you would expect and then some and the soundtrack is perfect. The most fun I have had in the theaters this year. A blast from beginning to end.

  • Silver Linings Playbook 2012

    ★★★★★ Added

    A funny and heartfelt story with real emotion, real characters, and great acting. My third favorite film of the year and one that I will definitely be seeing again and again.

  • Life of Pi 2012

    ★★★★★ Added 2

    It has been quite some time that a movie has truly blown me away on multiple levels. Life of Pi is a reminder of the power of cinema. A beautiful film with the best visuals I have seen since Avatar, but where Avatar was lacking, Life of Pi succeeds. The visuals are not the only component of this breathtaking film. The story is an emotional ride with a great message. The score is haunting and wonderfully composed to each scene…

  • Dead Poets Society 1989

    A great story filled with fantastic performances from Robin Williams and the students. The story is captivating, a bit depressing, but also inspiring. This movie is poetry on film. A powerful film that everyone needs to see. Carpe diem.
