My Review of ‘Coffy’ (1973)

My Review of ‘Malone’ (1987)

My Review of ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’ (1969)
Apparently, this film includes “virtually everything in the novel” it’s based upon, according to Wikipedia. That, in itself, is unusual. But it is hardly the movie’s only peculiarity. If you’ve never seen this entry in the James Bond franchise, but … Continue reading

Reel Infatuation with De Niro and Grodin in ‘Midnight Run’
Not long ago, someone asked me to recommend a good comedy. This movie was one that came right to mind. When I told this person that Robert De Niro was hilarious in it, the response was one of complete disbelief. … Continue reading

My Review of ‘Attack the Block’ (2011)
I’m not a big horror fan, but there are notable exceptions. And this film is much more than a gory blood-fest with monsters lurking in the shadows. It is, in fact, the most astounding piece of sci-fi/horror/action-adventure/comedy I’ve ever seen. … Continue reading
