Star Trek Into Darkness
Star Trek into LENS FLAIRS! Abrams delivers again. I know fans are mixed on this installment but as a pure action/adventure film this was a lot of fun. First blockbuster this summer that works for me, makes Iron Man 3 look amateurish.

Thanks for following me! Yeah, I've really been diving into portuguese cinema lately. Tabu was one of my favorites last year and I can't wait to checkout Joao Pedro Rodrigues' Last Time I Saw Macao. Also can't wait for Olivera's Gebo and the Shadow.

Hey, i saw your review of Argo, and i thought i could agree on a lot of different aspects you raised. Do you think Ben Affleck has any potential to make a more, umm, i don't know how to put it, 'better' film? Hmm

He absolutely could make a better film. He's not untalented. I just think he could try to make something a little less pandering to the lowest common denominator. Gone Baby Gone is still his best film and a very solid one. I think he can get over casting himself and just focus on directing he might come up with a better film.

Argo
Argo is with out a doubt the film most undeserving of awards and accolades this awards season. Easily Affleck’s weakest directorial effort, Argo’s story is a Dateline segment or New York Times article… read review

Boogie Nights is the most fun you can have in cinema with your pants on(while subsequently watching a lot of people take their’s off). I’ve been revisiting all of the films from director Paul Thomas… read review
The Long Goodbye
I put off seeing Robert Altman’s The Long Goodbye, mostly because I had mixed feelings on some of Altman’s output. Although I loved many of Altman’s 70’s films particularly McCabe and Mrs. Miller… read review
