Oscars in Black and White

New review of “The King’s Speech” (thank you LadyOscar23!). 12 nominations for the film – should be an interesting battle on Oscar night!

New review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part One ! Good movie. Tough competition in the nominated categories.

New review of Blue Valentine (and reviews of all the movies we’ve watched so far at the 2010 (Nominated) Movies – Reviews page).

Blue Valentine was a tough movie to watch, and a tough movie to review. I was surprised at how much I liked in the movie, and yet it still falls short of greatness. Bravo to the cast and art direction, however.

New review of Gasland.

Trailer from HBO:

One year of human-time corresponds seven for dogs, at least according to the popular myth. See “Dogtooth” and live through several  dog-years (new review of Dogtooth available).

Invitations to the 22nd (almost) annual black-and-white soiree are out!

Also, new reviews of Alice in Wonderland, and Exit Through The Gift Shop.

New review of Salt. A fine installment in the action film genre. Set-up to be another Bourne franchise, time will tell if this Salt keeps well.

A new review of Black Swan.

A total thumbs-up for the contributed review, and … a thumbs-down for the film.

Want to experience an insightful insight into madness? Try Apocalypse Now, for example. As a superficial exposition, Black Swan offers a monotonic insight into this world.

Good performance(s), and not much more.

New review for How To Train Your Dragon. Good dragon!

A review of The Kids Are All Right – the most unfunny comedy of the year! Good performances, weak story. Annette Bening was solid.
