I saw this back in August on an advance screening. Before the movie began, they told us that the special effect wasn't final yet, but I didn't really mind as the main draw for me to see this is the cast, mainly Helen Mirren, Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, AND John Malkovich. I thought that even if …

Well, I didn't get a chance to see The Social Network this weekend, though they hardly need my patronage to take the top spot for the second weekend, dropping only 30% to take in $15.5 mil (per Box Office Mojo).

I've been saving this to coincide with his recently-released Facebook movie The Social Network, as well as the upcoming …
FlixChatter Review: Secretariat
I saw this on day 4 of the film festival last week. There aren't a lot of movies with strong female roles in Hollywood, so it's nice that three out of four of the studio films at TCFF feature characters based on real-life strong women in a male-dominated arena. Secretariat is more than just a …

I just learned yesterday, thanks to Dez @ HollywoodSpy about Charlize Theron and Patrick Wilson starring in Diablo Cody's new movie Young Adult. The Minnesota-native, Oscar-winning writer is collaborating again with Juno's director Jason Reitman (who did the acclaimed Up in the Air last year).
