MOVIE REVIEW – DRIVE
Nicolas Winding Refn’s “Drive” feels like a throwback to the 1980s. But don’t expect Romy and Michelle to pop up, rather a mood and tone is created here that longs for “Manhunter”’s Will Graham to make an appearance, as Refn piles on gobs of visual style that would make Michael Mann proud.

Spoiler Alert: “Captain America” is awesome and “Cowboys & Aliens” isn’t.

Branagh does a good job of balancing the work of his actors with all the glitz, glitter and action sequences that abound in Asgard.

You may have wondered what the ladies were doing and talking about while the men were horsing around in films like “Wedding Crashers” and “The Hangover”.
MOVIE REVIEW – BORN TO BE WILD 3D
“Born to Be Wild 3D”, narrated by Morgan Freeman, manages to toe the fine line between high-tech and old school.
THE MIDDLE SEAT: “SIZE MATTERS”
Between my wife and I, screen size is a huge chasm of passion and indifference. I simply cannot watch a movie unless it is on a large screen.

MOVIE REVIEW – FAST FIVE
After watching “Fast Five”, I realized it would become a quick classic you’ll turn on while cleaning the living room or doing taxes
MOVIE REVIEW – WATER FOR ELEPHANTS
Overall, my masculine side says this film is a blockbuster that you’ll quickly forget you saw. My feminine side says Robert Pattison is hot.

Let’s talk this week about something that every single movie-goer experiences – artistic hijacked redundancy.

REPORTING FROM THE GEORGE LINDSEY UNA FILM FESTIVAL
With features, films in multiple languages, and several international entries, this film festival is so much more grandiose than its simple name would imply.

I’m clicking the weird, the wonderful and the what the hell were they thinking when they coughed up a budget for this piece of raw moose dung.
MOVIE REVIEW – LIMITLESS
A film like this demands a charismatic and vulnerable lead actor, and Bradley Cooper is quickly establishing himself as the right guy for those jobs.
MOVIE REVIEW – THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU
Matt Damon and Emily Blunt are maybe the first action film couple I’ve seen in years that had great chemistry.
THE MIDDLE SEAT: “CINEMATIC LITMUS TEST”
My initial thought is, we come up with a basic questionnaire, designed by people who enjoy and understand the art of cinema, and anyone who fails it gets put on the list.
MOVIE REVIEW – BEASTLY
Watching the filmmaking team’s decision-making process about what kind of look the beast would have would probably be much more fascinating than watching the movie.
