Review of Sound of My Voice (2011)

By Nels W (52) on 07 Sep 2012

Review of Failure to Launch (2006)

By Nels W (52) on 04 Sep 2012

Definitely a 2-beer minimum movie, but SJP makes up for MM and Zooey is probably worth a star for her usual dry humor…

Review of Hall Pass (2011)

By Nels W (52) on 03 Sep 2012

Funny in that Owen Wilson / Jason Sudekis style of silly banter. The emotional / relationship acting was pretty bad though…

By Nels W (52) on 30 Jun 2012

Review of Another Earth (2011)

By Nels W (52) on 30 Apr 2012
