I’m very late in seeing this movie. I loved the trailer. You see, the trailer shows a little boy discovering a far away land of imagination and adventure and there’s this super uplifting Arcade Fire track to underline it all. It’s like a fantastical journey and it makes you wish you were a child again…

I love this movie for the beautiful niche that it fills but I cannot, in good conscience, recommend you see it.

His stand-up routine did not impress me. Out-dated and lazy.

Ingrid’s new album So it seems that I’ve been put on the list of people to notify if there’s any interesting news related to Ingrid Micahelson. All because I blogged about attending her fabulous gig in Seattle. Not that I’m complaining, I love her music to bits. So our girl from Staten Island has a…

Have you heard of Zeitgeist – The Movie? It is film aptly described as “internet bullshit“. Long story short: I am greatly intrigued by the film’s content but I absolutely detest the film itself. Zeitgeist is a big conspiracy movie that is meant to make you outraged and fight the power. Open your eyes. It…

Forgive this indulgence but I’m going to take you for a detour into mid-90′s, popular Hong Kong cinema and I’m going to season it with a boatload of links to Wikipedia. The name of the movie is Forbidden City Cop starring Stephen Chow, a popular Hong Kong entertainer who is only now being recognized by…

Wow. What can I say about this movie? Well first of all, 9/10. Loved it. Right from the start, you’re treated to a gritty, hardboiled mystery. Who is on the other end of the phone? What are all these names? What’s with this strange slang they speak? Our protagonist is Brendan (played by the boy…

Wow. This movie may be Michael Moore’s most important work to date. If you haven’t heard, Michael Moore’s SiCKO is a movie that examines America’s market-driven health insurance system and the glaring lack of universal health care that the majority of other developed nations provide. Michael Moore’s introduction to the movie and a call to…

BUY IT. Shut up and buy it Reasons not to buy it: You can’t afford it You don’t take photos with your phone You don’t use internet features on your phone You need a phone with a button for each letter of the alphabet

I’m ashamed to say this, but I’ve been watching a lot of movies at home. Warning: Amazon links ahead Hoodwinked – 3 stars On the repeated recommendations from Karan and the fact that he seems to hold this movie in higher regard than Happy Feet (blasphemy!), I decided to watch this. It’s clever with a…

Borat is a shit movie. I expected some sort of very dark comedy with lots of social commentary on the attitudes towards weird foreign culture and exposing all the political incorrectness in the US. I hoped to expose some of the fervent racism and sexism out there. Shed some light on the extreme fanaticism and…

The Depahhhhhrted. Not being from the US, I had no idea that Bostonians had that sort of accent. It grows on you though. I wish I could say ‘car’ with such gusto. Blood Spray! Anyway, it’s a good movie. A lot of violence is deliberately unglamourous. There’s an interesting contrast with the film’s title referencing…

I mentioned in my first post that I wouldn’t recommend Typo for anyone looking to install a blog engine. Rails Fever I started playing with Typo because I thought, finally a capable blog engine with some decent development momentum behind it. I’m a natural tinkerer and I like being able to upgrade things and see…
