After The Sunset (2004)

A showy heist film full of pretty people but shallow characters. Not developed enough to make me care about the actors or what happened to them. Ending was pretty lame too.

Run Ronnie Run (2002)

Being a huge fan of Mr Show with David Cross and Bob Odenkirk, I had to check out this collaboration film/sketch project, even though I heard they weren't happy with the outcome. As I expected, it was hit and miss. Really funny in some parts, and really off mark in others. This movie had an unbelievable amount of cameos by every comedian in town. If you are a fan of theirs, it's worth checking out.

Wall-E (2008)

Wonderful. Pixar never ceases to amaze. (Until they finally did with Brave) Can be enjoyed by children as well as adults—no small feat for an animated film. Creative, funny, warm, and thought-provoking.

Safety Not Guaranteed (2012)

A gem of an indie. A time travel movie that isn’t really about time travel at all. Funny, hip, and smart without being condescending. Definitely a contender for Top 10 Films of the Year.

Toy Story 3 (2010)

Entertaining once again. Loved the Ken & Barbie scenes. Story was a little weak, but it was just backdrop for the fun and familiar characters to work their magic.

ParaNorman (2012)

A pretty cool animated film about zombies, witches, and ghosts. In the style of A Nightmare Before Christmas. Plenty of adult humor that kids will miss, assuming kids were into this movie. It’s probably a bit scary for them.
