I saw Dreamgirls (2006) today and I must say that the movie was pretty darn good - ok, it was excellent. I was blown away by Jennifer Hudson’s performance. She thoroughly deserved all the hype she has been receiving for her portrayal of Effie White. She delivered majorly. Her voice brought tears to my eyes […]

I recently saw Derailed (2005) starring Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston and I have to say that I actually enjoyed it. (Don’t throw eggs.)

Wow, stop the presses, but I actually made it back into a movie theatre for the first time in a few months.
I saw “The Pursuit of Happyness” at an afternoon matinee, and I must say that I was not disappointed. Will Smith (looking a lot like Jesse Jackson) gave a stellar performance as a […]
