Quick Reviews for the Impatient

Will you Definitely, believe in this love story told with a solid heart by Ryan Reynolds and starring three of the most beautiful women (Isla Fisher, Elizabeth Banks, and Rachel Weisz) in the entire industry? Maybe. *** Stars

With some explosive laughs, a great spoof at a brilliant documentary (Morgan Spurlock’s Super Size Me), and some important historical references about protesting and trying to legalize weed, Doug Benson and company have created a perfect movie for your 4/20 fixes. I liked what I saw, but I wanted more. *** Stars

Lovely music and solid performances can’t save this melodrama from forgetting its tone. What starts off promising does end with a fitting finale, but too bad there is all that stuff in between. **1/2 Stars

While Transformers let the world know that Shia Lebeouf could dominate the box-office, this was his sleeper hit that solidified him as an up and coming movie star. This is a solid twist of a remake of the brilliant Rear Window. *** Stars

Remember Channing Tatum from Step Up? He was terrible in that. Remember Channing Tatum in A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints? He was a wonder in that. First impressions can be the equivalent of incest. They can be just plain wrong. With a cast of dreams including Robert Downey Jr, Shia Lebeouf, Rosario Dawson, Chazz Palminteri, and Tatum, this is a powerful reminder to audiences just how important independent cinema can be. **** Stars

Establishes itself as a sequel so terrible, so mind-numbingly disgusting, and so accidentally hilarious, that you almost start rooting for the mutants to make sure they have their way with the humans as fast as possible. 88-minutes go by like being lost in the desert. Oh the irony. 0 Stars

Remember 1968? Nah, nothing happened that year except Oliver! winning Best Picture and some war that was on this thing call a television.

Kidding.

1968 is one of the most important American years to study. Bobby is an account of R.F.K’s final day of life, one that truly does live in infamy. On the level with Robert Altman, director Emilio Estevez (Yes, also known as Gordon Bombay) and his stellar cast of some of the biggest names in Hollywood (From Anthony Hopkins, to Shia Lebeouf, to Christian Slater) give us a piece of history we as a nation should embrace as both tragic and inspiring. **** Stars
