  • The Hangover Part III 2013

    ★½ Watched 23 May, 2013

    There were minutes upon minutes that went by in THE HANGOVER PART III without a laugh. Not just from me, but from my friends and the 8 other people who were in the theater on an opening Thursday. That was because sometimes the jokes and situations just fell flat and other times because there was nothing funny happening... ON PURPOSE!

  • The Great Gatsby 2013

    ★★★★★ Added 3

    I remember when JACKIE BROWN opened on Christmas Day in 1997. I didn't get to see it that day because it was sold out, and rightly so. After a few year hiatus following PULP FICTION, the world couldn't wait to see the next film from arguably the most influential director since Orson Welles. Eventually I did get to see JACKIE BROWN and to this day it's still my favorite Q.T. movie.
