Review of Catch a Fire (2006)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for FilmStew.com (638) on 28 Oct 2006

Review of The Break-Up (2006)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Now Playing Magazine (128) on 21 Sep 2006

There's nothing broken about The Break-Up, which turns rom-com conventions on their side in free-wheeling fashion, and in doing so colorfully,…

Review of Monster House (2006)
