Anonymous John Delia |  Nov 11, 2011 I hope the film Anonymous is true because as being a former Theatre (plays) critic it has always intrigued me if William Shakespeare did or didn't write his sonnets and plays.  So, being the kind... Full Review  | Grade: A

J. Edgar John Delia |  Nov 09, 2011 The interesting and historical J. Edgar has reached local movie theatres with very good performances by Leonardo DiCaprio, Naomi Watts and Judi Dench.  The film has a few flaws, but it do... Full Review  | Grade: C

Puss in Boots Marco Chacon |  Oct 27, 2011 In the original story, Puss is a pretty arrogant cat.  He is not much of a sword-fighter, but is very smart as well as smartly dressed.  In Shrek, he is Antonio Bandaras, and he is a... Full Review  | Grade: C

The Three Musketeers Chris Rebholz |  Oct 23, 2011 It is beyond amazing at how easily someone can take a classic tale and turn it into something unentertaining. What was once an epic tale has been watered down for the sake of the 3D craze and instead... Full Review  | Grade: D

The Thing John Delia |  Oct 13, 2011 Fans of the film The Thing beware; even though the movie takes you back to the Norwegian outpost providing a beginning to John Carpenter's 1982 film with the same title, it may as well hav... Full Review  | Grade: B
