Yikes. I am wayyyyyyy behind on movie reviews. Between Emerald City, a heavy freelance gig, copyediting Bobby Pins and Mary Janes, and getting sick, it's been a hellacious couple of weeks and I've become the kind of writer I really don't like: one who can't get things done. I'm on the mend, though, and getting back in the saddle. Here's what I've managed since last I updated:
NEW TO THEATRES...
* The Cabin in the Woods, a fun puzzle of horror and comedy. Avoid info on this one, just go!
UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...
* A Night to Remember, the 1958 adaptation of the Titanic story. Looks great on Blu-Ray, and overall, is more powerful than I recalled.
THIS WEEK IN DVD/BD REVIEWS...
* The Double Hour, this recent Italian thriller is a must-see. The debut of director Giuseppe Capotondi, and starring Filippo Timi
* Jb Smoove: That's How I Dooz It, a disappointing stand-up special from the Curb Your Enthusiasm Actor.
* The Sitter, the latest in the decline of David Gordon Green. A tepid comedy starring Jonah Hill.
* This is Not a Movie: Three Edward Furlongs, one bad script.
Current Soundtrack: Love Spit Love, Love Spit Love
