G.B.F. (Gay Best Friend)
By Kevin Taft | Saturday May 25, 2013
A frothy, over-the-top confection that wins you over with its sass and makes stars out of Michael J. Willett and pop-singer JoJo.
Face 2 Face
By Bill Biss | Tuesday May 14, 2013
Leave it to Katherine Brooks’ "Face 2 Face" for a loving push to get to the heart of life’s journey. It could be that all Brooks needs is some love and a switch-up of "medicate" to "meditate."
The Great Gatsby
By Kilian Melloy | Friday May 10, 2013
This film is so amped up it could fly right into the fourth, fifth, and sixth dimensions, were they available. As it is, "Gatsby" has to content itself with a magnificent foray into 3D.

By Kilian Melloy | Friday Apr 26, 2013
A new feature film about Thor Heyerdal’s crossing of the Pacific ocean on a primitive balsa wood raft paints a complex picture of the man; but the dramatic maritime passage feels more than a little forced.

In the House
By Kevin Langson | Friday Apr 19, 2013
"In the House" is Francois Ozon in top form. The prolific French director turns out some forgettable fare along the way, but the faithful know not to write him off because he always comes back with something that packs a punch.
42
By Padraic Maroney | Friday Apr 12, 2013
A failed attempt to tell the story of Jackie Robinson by giving him the Lifetime movie treatment.
Evil Dead
By Kevin Taft | Friday Apr 5, 2013
The movie touted as "The Most Terrifying Film You Will Ever Experience" is met with a resounding "meh."
