Tom Hanks' latest offering centered around the events of 9/11 proves to be a misjudged and overly sentimental tale that falls on its implausability. read more »

Too many adverbs
I’m sure this film could be cathartic for all those affected by 9/11, but this was a hard movie to sit through in more ways than one. I was in equal parts ... read more »

Silence is Golden: Oscar Report 2012
- 27 Feb 2012
As expected, The Artist trumped all-comers in the Oscars 2012, picking up the top prizes in the categories for which it had a fighting chance: Best Picture, Director, and Actor, as well as Score and Costume (though losing Supporting Actress to Octavia Spencer in The Help).
