Inception (2010) – a new frontier in filmmaking

Here’s a great infographic for Inception that actually manages to explain the movie’s multiple layers. It does so visually, and with a geometrically impossible object – which is the in-joke, of course. The film spends so much time establishing the rules of its universe, as it begins to observe some characters break those rules, the [...]

Alice in Wonderland (2010)

Tim Burton has done it again – a visual marvel of a film, a pretty close adaptation of a timeless classic book, great performances (although a little too heavy on screen time for Depp and Bonham Carter), and a lovely, rebellious Alice.

The screening was fun, we howled, took home t-shirts, and promised to tell others about it.  The movie is so much [...]

When this series was announced back in spring – about a small town dealing with the aftermath of a nuclear attack on USA – everything seemed compelling except for the little puppy-eyes skinny kid from [...]
