Spotlight: Amy Adams
AMY ADAMS || The first thing I ever remember seeing Amy Adams in was Cruel Intentions 2 (2000), taking on essentially the same role Sarah Michelle Gellar had inhabited in the original (I also saw her first role in Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999), but that was later). From there, her star would rise immeasurably. I remember my heart breaking for her as Brenda Strong … Read More Spotlight: Amy Adams
Oscars Watch: 72nd Annual Golden Globe Winners
Since the Oscar ballots were already turned in, the Golden Globes have very little bearing on who will get nominated this Thursday when the nominees are announced, but what the Globes do is potentially shift the Academy into picking different winners based on their speeches and likability throughout the night. It also solidifies certain momentum, say the supporting categories in which J.K. Simmons (“Whiplash”) … Read More Oscars Watch: 72nd Annual Golden Globe Winners

Movie Review: Her (2013)
HER BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLDECEMBER 26, 2013 I have never smiled so much or felt so much emotion during a film this year than I did with “Her.” Feeling the presence of a smile while you’re watching a film is a rare thing, at least for me. The immense glow of emotion coming from this film is brought on, not just by the lavish performances, … Read More Movie Review: Her (2013)

New Trailer: Her – Official Trailer #1
HER // It’s about time Spike Jonze goes back to directing sincere, quirky films that put him on the map (“Adaptation.”, “Being John Malkovich”). “Her” is an emotional romance film, except instead of a man and a woman falling madly in love, it’s a man falling in love with a computer operating system. Sounds hot right? And somewhat laughable? But if there’s one thing … Read More New Trailer: Her – Official Trailer #1
Quick Review: Man Of Steel (2013)
MAN OF STEEL BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJUNE 14, 2013 Coming from someone who could have given a shit less about Superman as a character, “Man Of Steel” is the best re-envisioning of the iconic superhero, for which you could ask.
