Let’s Scare Jessica To Death – Quickie Review
I saw this as a kid, I haven’t seen it since. It scared the bejesus out of me. However, it’s probably pretty tame by today’s standards. Rewatch mandatory.

Cloud Atlas – Quickie Review
I know I’m in the minority, but I loved this film. Totally ambitious, and completely riveting from start to finish.
Goon – Quickie Review
Best hockey movie outside of Slap Shot, hands down. Liev Schreiber is so authentic.
Stand By Me – Quickie Review
Great movie. Best dubbing and editing for a movie playing on Family Channel ever.
E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial – Quickie Review
This was the first movie I ever saw twice in the theatre. It’s still perfect with guns, less perfect with walkie-talkies.
Visitor, The – Quickie Review
Richard Jenkins is a revelation. Beautiful perfomance, beautifully moving film.
Forrest Gump – Quickie Review
Don’t get me started on how much I hate this movie. How did this movie beat out both Pulp Fiction and The Shawshank Redemption for Best Picture at the Academy Awards?
Near Dark – Quickie Review
Near perfect vampire road movie. The film belongs to Bill Paxton.
A-Team, The – Quickie Review
Best aerial tank sequence ever, and totally plausible. Sharlto Copley is a hoot.
Rambo – Quickie Review
Over the top action, over the top gore, over the top villains. A kid being thrown into a burning building has never been funnier.
