Tiny Movie Reviews

Here are super-tiny, bite-sized morsels of my opinions on some of the movies I've watched in the past 6 months or so:

Roll Bounce, 2005: I loved it all -- the music, the kids, DMC's cameo ... well, except the love interest (Naomi) was lame.

Grizzly Man, 2005: Woah! Truth is stranger than fiction, indeed.

The Ice Storm, 1997: Good, but a tad depressing for my taste. I do like the critique of supposed 70s "liberation."

The 40 Year-Old Virgin, 2005: Pretty good, but as with most comedies I grew a little tired of it.

The War of the Worlds, 1953: Excellent! Much better than the Spielberg version.

Northfork, 2003: More like "borefork"! Great visuals. Weird, sometimes silly, dialogue. Didn't make much sense.

The Sea, 2002: Oh no, another weird Icelandic movie! It had it moments.

Me and You and Everyone We Know, 2005: Very good; I liked it! You might not, though, so don't get mad at me.

Saved!, 2004: Not as good as it could have been, but I'll settle for it anyway.

Journey to the Center of the Earth, 1959: Classic. Wonderful and entertaining.
