Hello all.

As we get into the thick of Oscar-bait season (look at all the glamorous performances by people trying to snag an Acting nomination), here is a review of a movie that won't even be remembered by Oscar time, Evan Almighty. Let's just say, it's not very good.

Here is a direct link to the review.

New Review: The Lives of Others (2006)

Today there is a new review posted of The Lives of Others, this year's Oscar-winner for Best Foreign Film. This German film tells the story of the surveillance of an artist by the East German secret police in the 1980s. Fascinating and complex, this thought-provoking film features an excellent script, sure direction, and strong performances.
