    Side Effects review

    Side Effects review

    Side Effects, with Jude Law, Rooney Mara, Catherine Zeta-Jones & Channing Tatum.  Steven Soderbergh, director.  Not giving too much credence to the received word of mouth that this was a “good thriller” of some quality, but desperate to see anything that might be Continue reading →

    in_the_news_marcwinger-com_0519131203mw A New York teacher is criticizing Angelina Jolie’s double breast removal broadcast.  Apparently she’s not happy that the incident is being seen as an illustration for everyone to follow.  Denoting that she, like many middle class people, don’t have the funds, the time & wherewithal to do Continue reading →

    Dark Skies review

    Dark Skies review

    Dark Skies, with Josh Hamilton & Keri Russell.  Director, Scott Stewart.  An astonishingly, sufficient film about abduction.  I have to say that because that’s what the film is about.  Hopefully, it’s not spoiling it for anyone.  The trailer implied all this anyway, as I remember.

    What could otherwise have been a rotten film, was saved by good acting & minimal special effects.  Cheap actors would have made this a joke & Hamilton & Russell are each fairly sound actors.  Creating a drama with the story that was believable Continue reading →

    in_the_news_marcwinger-com_0519131203mw Eddie Furlong has been arrested yet again.  The unctuous, child star of Terminator 2, last seen by us in Assault on Wall Street, is being held, on bond, for violating a restraining order in favor of his ex-girlfriend.  With his ex-wife also, previously, filing & Continue reading →

    Star Trek Into Darkness review

    Star Trek Into Darkness review

    Star Trek Into Darkness, with Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto & Zoe Saldana.  Director, J. J. Abrams.  Thinking about how the previous installment left off, I was a little surprised Continue reading →

    Dark Circles review

    Dark Circles review

    Dark Circles, with Johnathon Schaech & Pell James.  Paul Soter, director.  Perhaps the things, at the beginning of the film, that annoyed me were calculated to keep the audience off guard.  I would like to think so.  After all; an annoying couple,  Continue reading →
