Mini-Review: It is beyond difficult to reinvent a franchise for the mainstream audience while not upsetting the hardcore fanbase. JJ Abrams has surpassed all expectations with his own adaption of the Star Trek universe. Its was a fun and memorable movie throughout. What really got me though, was the dead on casting of all the characters. I throughouly enjoyed seeing Simon Pegg in this movie more than anything. A great popcorn action flick.

Mini-Review: For someone that is not a big fan of anime films to begin with, this film literally blew me away. Visually brilliant but intelligent enough so you can enjoy it. Immersive at even its lowest quality...a marvelous achievement.

Mini-Review: Probably one my favorite cop movies of all time. The film that made me love Clint Eastwood.

Mini-Review: Possibly Tarantino's masterpiece. The script is sheer genius and the movie dazzles on the screen. Christoph Waltz literally steals the show and gives one of the best acting performances I've ever seen.

Mini-Review: Peter Jackson brings imagination and visionary cinematography to life in the Lovely Bones. Despite the fact that this a beautiful and touching film, there just isnt enough plot in it to justify its own runtime. The film starts to drag and veer off course early on and diminishes the world around it. With more of an adaptive screenplay, something truly exciting could have been achieved here. Jackson's work is still worth seeing the film, just not the admission ticket.
