Monsters Inc. (2001) Review

July 22, 2013September 9, 2018 Ben

The key to Pixar’s success isn’t the animation, the voices or even the comedy – it’s the original storytelling. The best of Pixar has the most original stories, creating whole worlds that most people couldn’t come close to imagining. They … Continue reading Monsters Inc. (2001) Review

The Imposter (2012) Review

July 15, 2013May 25, 2014 Ben

“Based on a True Story” or “Inspired by Real Events” usually means a movie has taken huge liberties with the facts and truth surrounding an event a film has been inspired by. I can think of a few examples where … Continue reading The Imposter (2012) Review

The Dark Knight Returns: Part 1 (2012) Review

July 8, 2013May 25, 2014 Ben

The most accurate and faithful adaptations of superheroes, Batman particularly, have been animated.

The Dictator (2012) Review

July 7, 2013May 25, 2014 Ben

Sacha Baron Cohen works best with no script and very little structure. His best work by far is Borat and Bruno. Both had very little script (although there was an overall story and direction) and relied on “everyday people’s” reactions and perceptions … Continue reading The Dictator (2012) Review

When is a Spoiler no longer a Spoiler?

July 2, 2013 Ben

There is nothing worse than a spoiler! Or more specifically, nothing worst than the tool that ends up spoiling a film/tv show for you. It’s probably top of my “soft hatred” list. (things you hate that aren’t a big deal!) Whenever … Continue reading When is a Spoiler no longer a Spoiler?

Despicable Me 2 (2013) Review

July 1, 2013May 25, 2014 Ben

  A movie’s popularity and success is never enough to justify a sequel. You need a story, flexible and adaptable characters and enough material to keep an audience entertained for at least ninety minutes. The problem with the film industry … Continue reading Despicable Me 2 (2013) Review

Despicable Me (2010) Review

June 29, 2013May 25, 2014 Ben

Any film, particularly comedies and even more so with animated comedies, relies on a certain element of luck. You can have the greatest script, fantastic cast and amazing director but if the chemistry doesn’t fit or the audience don’t quite “get … Continue reading Despicable Me (2010) Review
