Film Some Kind of Wonderful
Viewed by many as a gender switched redo of John Hughes and Howard Deutch previous collaboration Pretty in Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful is so much more than this and it is a kind of unfair label.

Hancock The Movie
“Hancock” is now officially my new favorite summer movies. I thought “Sex and the City” was good, but this movie blew them out of the water. First off, I do not recommend this movie for small children, or children in general for that matter. While the dialog was hilarious, …

Wait Until Dark: A Film by Terence Young, 1967
For most of Audrey Hepburn’s onscreen career, romantic films helped to greatly define her image as a beguiling female lead. It is why I feel a strong interest in seeing her other exclusive portrayals outside that “frivolous bubble,” yet all the while entertaining, of girl-falls-in-love flicks; I want …

Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy [Garth Jennings, 2005]

The Butterfly Effect (2004)
