Mini-Review: Loud and ridiculous, but above all: absurdly entertaining. A well-executed modernization of a classic television show. Although, the plot is as predictable as plates spinning due to motion; it succeeds at capturing the spirit and essence of the show. The faces of the characters are different, however, the witty, sarcastic, no-holds-barred and relentless attitude remains the same. Thus, if you don't like this adrenaline fueled film, then in the immortal words of B.A. Baracus: "I' kill you fool!"

Mini-Review: A romantic comedy that transcends the cookie-cutter stereotypes of guy meets girl. This film is smart, charming, heartwarming and hilarious. The characters sleight-of-hand and dripping sardonic remarks are rarely found with such precision in contemporary films. The interplay between Billy Crystals' devil-may-care attitude and Meg Ryan's perfectionist nature reveals the irrationally of a hidden love within a friendship, but shows the irrationality of love is the most rational of all things.

Mini-Review: A highly fashionable and stylistic detective intrigue. Guy Ritchie has directed his best movie to date by capturing the spirit and heart of the beloved tandem and character of both Holmes and Watson. Moreover, Downey Jr. is charming, misanthropic, pompous and above all: ready to duel even the mightiest of foes with uncanny wit and intelligence. However, the fast-pace filmmaking and blend of preposterous storytelling creates a disjointed, incoherent and very chaotic atmosphere that lacks flow.

Mini-Review: Scrumptious, enticing and perfectly orchestrated with all the clamor and superfluousness of the passionate but cold Victorian Age. The cast is depicted as a lovely family that nonetheless lives in a very sexually repressed period, coupled by the authoritarian values of obedience and discipline. In spite of the lush and pristine camera work mirroring the ethos of the age, it however, belabors far too much on the nature of emotional love without separating itself from prior films.

Mini-Review: A pithy yet complicated love story. The interweaving flashbacks provide an interesting outlook on love. Aside from that, the film flounders from Kaufman's self-revealing neurosis, verging on the same level to that of Nietzsche, screaming emphatically 'Why I am so wise.' Moreover, Kaufman's adulation of Nietzsche is evinced by the story surrounding the concept of eternal recurrence. Peel away the orange of post-modernism; and what the audience discovers is an old kernel of truth: love is hard.
