Righteous Kill – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ September 20, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

MetaCritic score: 37 The Godfather, Raging Bull, Dog Day Afternoon, Taxi Driver, Scent of a Woman, and Goodfellas. These are six of the reasons why, against my better judgment, I went to see Righteous Kill, a film that earned almost entirely scathing reviews. Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are legends. They’ve starred in many [...]

Cinebarre / Traitor Review Addendum – Podcast!

By David Heiser ⋅ September 18, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

In a first for me, I went down to the George Street Observer office on campus the other day to record a little discussion of my Cinebarre/Traitor review with my section’s editor Brian Wilder (of the DubiousOne blog as well). In case you’re interested in checking out what I had to say, or just in [...]

Cinebarre / Traitor – Mt. Pleasant Restaurant and Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ September 13, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s Friday afternoon. You promised your girlfriend you’d take her out to dinner and a movie, but there’s also a party you really want to get to. Let us say dinner takes an hour and a half and you’re going to a two hour movie. Depending on what time your movie starts, that could take [...]

The Bank Job – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ September 8, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

MetaCritic Score: 69 I’ve spent some time on this blog making fun of actors, like Ben Stiller, who play essentially the same character in every movie they’re in. That being said, it may be sort of hypocritical to admit that I’m a big Jason Statham fan because, apart from Snatch and Lock Stock & Two [...]

The Last Winter – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ August 26, 2008 ⋅ One comment

MetaCritic score: 69 An Inconvenient Truth won two Oscars. Some people may even have found the implications of its message to be frightening. Even still, the consequences of our actions that are outlined in Gore’s film seem abstract because they don’t threaten our immediate future and may not necessarily affect each of us individually. The [...]

Big Week for DH

By David Heiser ⋅ August 26, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

This is going to be a big, very busy week for both me and my blog. I start class Wednesday, I’ve got some events coming up, and I’ve got a bunch of writing to do (not including any homework I may get assigned). Some things to look forward to: 1. I’m about halfway done with [...]

The Bucket List – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ August 20, 2008 ⋅ One comment

MetaCritic score: 42 I’m a sucker for Morgan Freeman movies. Ever since I saw The Shawshank Redemption (which immediately became one of my all-time favorites), essentially everything with his name attached ends up in my hands at one point or another. I know I’m just basing this on the characters that he’s played, but I [...]

Pineapple Express – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ August 17, 2008 ⋅ One comment

MetaCritic Score: 64 There’s no doubt about it, Seth Rogen is Hollywood’s new comedy golden boy, and he’s got the rapidly growing resume to prove it. Since bursting into the spotlight last summer with the hugely successful Knocked Up and Superbad, he has been in six films and has five more due out between now [...]

Paranoid Park – Movie Review

By David Heiser ⋅ August 11, 2008 ⋅ 2 comments

MetaCritic Score: 83 “No one is ever really ready for Paranoid Park” – These words are spoken to Alex, the film’s main character just before his first trip to Portland’s famed haven for skateboarders, street kids, and punks. This warning, though seeming innocent enough, ends up vastly understating Alex’s unpreparedness for, not only the events [...]
