Movies Fall 2016 Movie Reviews Time for another post of quick movie reviews that have accumulated. I'm just going from my IMDB rankings list, so there may be some there I watched earlier and just got around to ranking. Also there are a few "blockbuster" movies I
Movies Late 2015 quick movie reviews I've been keeping a list of movies I watch in order to write reviews later, but for a while I haven't had time/been interested. So instead of a bunch of longer reviews I'm going to do a quick clearing of the backlog with
Movies How I rate movies I realized the other day that I've never explained the rating system I use for movies. It's not all that critical, most people have a general understanding of the difference between 1/10 and 10/10. But I've noticed some subtle differences in rating

Movies Movies I've watched recently - Feb 2013, part 1 Wow, it's been almost a year since I posted anything here about movies. Sooo... I'll go through what I rated things on IMDB since my last post and see what I can remember. Unfortunately, this isn't going to include anything I've re-watched and didn't
Movies Movie - Body of Lies I recently watched Body of Lies. At a high level, it's a movie about an increasingly jaded CIA agent in the Middle East (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his jerk of a handler back in the US (Russell Crowe). The production quality overall was great --
