Schindler’s List

May 5, 2008

9.5/10
Schindler’s List is one of the most moving movies I have ever experienced. It is the story of Oskar Schindler a war profiteer, and member of the nazi party that saves 1100 Polish Jews during the war. It is a super powerful, tragic story and the movie tells it well. Everything about the movie is amazing. [...]

Cinderella Man

April 21, 2008

9/10
Cinderella Man is the inspiring true story about James Braddock a boxer during the Great Depression. Braddock (Russell Crowe) is a down and out has been barely getting by, and trying to support his family. He goes every day to the docks looking for work and sometimes gets a fight at night.

Orange County

April 14, 2008

6/10
Orange County like its main character wants to be more than it really is. The main character Shaun (Colin Hanks) succeeds but the movie itself does not get much outside of being a dumb teen comedy without much comedy. It tries to blend comedy with drama and comes out as movie that is just lacking. Shaun is a regular [...]

The Illusionist

March 6, 2008

8/10
The Illusionist is the story of Eisenheim(Edward Norton) the magician who is in love with a prince’s fiance Sophie von Teschen(Jessica Biel). This sounds pretty cheezy but it’s actually a decent but simple story that gets more interesting and enjoyable as it goes along. Basically Eisenheim and Sophie were in love when they were younger but [...]

Walk the Line

February 29, 2008

8.5/10
Walk the Line is the story of the man in black Johnny Cash. If you somehow don’t know who this is you really need to get out more. The movie follows his life of transformation through the good and bad, fame and the failures, and religious struggles. It goes through all his troubles with drug addiction, women, and basically self destruction. [...]

A Beautiful Mind

February 21, 2008

9/10
A Beautiful Mind is the true story about nobel prize winner John Nash. Nash is a mathmatic genius who struggles with schizophrenia. I cannot tell much of the story without spoiling alot of the movie but the story of Nash’s life is truly amazing. Russell Crowe plays John Nash and gives a powerful performance that [...]

The Passion of the Christ

October 17, 2007

10/10
Wow, this has to be the most moving movie I have ever experienced. I remember when I watched it how amazed I felt at what Jesus went through for me. I knew Christ suffered but this movie made me realize how much terrible stuff He went through. This is probably the best movie out there [...]
