‘A Most Violent Year,’ A Most Wonderful Film (Movie Review)

There is something I find fascinating about a man struggling not to be a criminal.  This was something played to near-perfection by Al Pacino in The Godfather films, but it is a character type that we have seen a lot in the crime and gangster films before and since those first two ‘masterpieces.’  In regards […]

Aside from Blu-ray press releases, these WonderCon posts over the past few days, and upcoming posts for Comic Con this year, I generally do not post various movie news and announcements for upcoming features, sticking to the reviews instead.  That said, Finding Nemo is one of my favorite Pixar films and seeing news about the […]

Drive (Blu-ray Review)

Every once in awhile, a film comes around that’s so hard to classify and/or nail down to a specific genre.  One can argue that 2011’s Drive just might be one of these movies.  Is it a mainstream picture?  Is it art house?  Is it an independent film?  Is it film noir?  Is it a thriller?  […]

Aaron’s Top 10 Films of 2011 & Other Yearly Wrap-Up Stuff
