Review of Lars and the Real Girl
Ryan and the Real Actor...A great movie about family, love, and mental illness - all of which we all have at one time or another (even if we care to ignore it) Gosling turns in another teriffic performance, as does Paul Schneider and Emily Mortimer. The battle of loneliness versus hospitality and love is ... read morePosted on 10/29/2007 by dougiejr3 
Review of Nine Lives
Just Nine?Insightful and visual, this film is reality film at its best, with an all star cast, dealing with real life situations, chemistry, and consequences. Stellar performances all around, but the division of the nine stories made it seem a bit drawn out. Dakota Fanning, Jason Isaacs, Glenn Close, Robin Wright ... read morePosted on 10/29/2007 by dougiejr3 
Review of Friends With Money
Living With Choices...First off, an all star cast drives this amazing Drama vehicle by detailing the lives of very different, but similar, friends. Those that have money, and those that are striving to make ends meet. Frances McDormand shines, as does Jason Isaacs, and Jennifer Aniston. The film's premise opens the dialogue ... read morePosted on 10/29/2007 by dougiejr3 
Review of 2001: A Space Odyssey
Before There Was Star Wars, There Was...Groundbreaking in so many ways, but did not expect anything less from Stanley Kubrick, 2001: A Space Odyssey is an exceptionally thought provoking film about evolution, control, and the brevity of life. With only 37 minutes of dialogue, much is left to the visual, as well as the abstract. Also, ... read morePosted on 10/22/2007 by dougiejr3

Review of The Last Temptation of Christ
What If?As a Christian, myself, I might be a little biased towards this movie, but really don't understand why it came under so much fire when it was released! Marty directed a masterful tale, from Kazantzakis, that details the life of Christ. From His upbringing, to His 3 year mission, and ... read morePosted on 10/10/2007 by dougiejr3 
Review of Pieces of April
Katie Holmes ShinesIn only one of two movies that I've ever seen, that Katie Holmes does a terrific job, this film is definitely a keeper! Holmes drives this piece as a young girl, trying to find her place in the world - and in her family. Dealing with the emotional stress of ... read morePosted on 10/09/2007 by dougiejr3 
Review of In America
Will Melt Your Heart!This film was absolutely an amazing gem to find at a local theatre! Not only did it make me cry, but also takes you on a heartwarming journey about being a part of a family - new beginnings, loving your family, and those that become a part of it. Djimon ... read morePosted on 10/09/2007 by dougiejr3

Review of The Jane Austen Book Club
Warm and Inviting Love StoryThis film centers around the six novels that Jane Austen penned, and the uncanny relevance that these novels have in the lives of the six individuals that are a part of a book club.
