THE GREATEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME

SO YOU WANT TO IMPROVE OSCAR NIGHT…
This is a refrain heard every year, it seems, just after The Academy Awards broadcast. People sharpen their swords to slice through everything that was wrong with that year’s ceremony.
OSCAR NOMINEE MOVIE REVIEW – WHIPLASH
WHIPLASH is a story about the pursuit of excellence. To me, it was the best picture I saw all of last year.

OSCAR NOMINEE MOVIE REVIEW – GRAVITY
In a movie age where more and more is being thrown on the screen – more computer effects, bigger armies of monsters and baddies, numbingly epic running times – “Gravity” shows the beauty that can result in paring down.

THE MOVIE GUYS REWRITE: BLADE RUNNER
Ridley Scott’s neo-noir, cyberpunk vision of Los Angeles in 2019 is one of those touchstone filmic environments that is so imaginative and so fully realized onscreen that it immediately transports you into its reality. Would it were that something more memorable happened there.
THE DARK KNIGHT RAISES (QUESTIONS IT CAN’T ANSWER)
Perhaps in years to come, once we’ve gotten a little more distance on it, the entire Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy will be thought of in the public mind less as an entire piece, and more along the lines of “The one with Heath Ledger in it as Joker, and the other two.”
THE MOVIE GUYS’ SECOND-EVER HOLIDAY SPECIAL
The Movie Guys enjoy the 2011 holiday season with music, comedy, stories, food and even a visit from St. Nicholas. They also find time to preview the newest movies in theaters, including “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy”, “The Darkest Hour”, “The Lady”, “The Sitter”, “Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows”, “Carnage”, “Young Adult”, “Albert Nobbs”, “The Iron Lady”, “We Bought a Zoo”, “New Year’s Eve”, “Shame”, “War Horse”, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo”, “The Adventures of Tintin” and “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol”

RANTING ON A CLASSIC: NETWORK
I’ve seen this film and, while it’s certainly not bad (it makes a decent enough rental), it’s also not the monumental satire everyone claims it to be.
GHOSTBUSTERS – WHY WE GONNA CALL?
“Ghostbusters” deserved (and deserves) either an incredible sequel – or a non-existent one.

THE MOVIE GUYS REWRITE: RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK
This “re-write” is not mine at all – it actually sprang from the minds of the men who created “Raiders” in the first place.
RANTING ON A CLASSIC: CADDYSHACK
“Caddyshack”‘s stature has grown to the point where it now stands alone as the undisputed master of the raunch-comedy – the standard bearer by which all others are judged.
THE MOVIE GUYS REWRITE: VERTIGO
There is such a thing as going too far afield in your plot construction.
RANTING ON A CLASSIC: ONE FROM THE HEART
Or, “Ranting On A (Not Quite) Classic” or “Re-examining a Failure”. You choose.
Movie Review – Straight Time
Hoffman holds it all together – possibly his best performance ever.
OVERLOOKED GEMS, PART 3: BAD MOVIE NIGHT
Classics? Perhaps not. But considerably better than their rep, and worth at least a look-see by the discriminating cinephile.
Movie Review – Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
I go back and forth in my mind whether this or RAIDERS is the best of the series.
Movie Review – Being John Malkovich
Don’t expect any comic masterpiece.
Movie Review – Alice in Wonderland
Do you KNOW what kind of films Tim Burton makes? Do you know what kind of a work “Alice in Wonderland” is? If so, you already know whether you want to see this movie or not.
