So… Ben Stiller’s The Secret Life of Walter Mitty should have been a better movie. As it stands, it’s a good enough movie with some occasionally brilliant, inspiring, and beautiful moments and scenery but the overall quest or trek is … Continue reading
Saw Thor: The Dark World… a movie that happened. It was an acceptable story with acceptable action and a slightly creative action climax and then a roll-your-dice random ending. It’s best trait is a pretty decent sense of humor (and … Continue reading
