Legends of the Fall [1994] Drama, Romantic Movie {On Netflix!}
Grade: C-Stars: 6.5
"It's a movie that shot for the stars and burnt up on reentry. It's a melodramatic smorgasbord of improperly paced and overreaching plot arcs. It felt like an entire first season of Dowton Abbey being broken down into pieces and slammed together into just over two hours. Everything but the thematic portrayal worked. Visually stunning, great acting, but in no way was the movie compelling or captivating--the two most important parts of a drama/romance."

Take Shelter [2011] Drama // Thriller
Stars: 9.3
Grade: A
"There is something refreshing about this type of subtly. Gripping. Suspenseful. Immersive. Compelling. These are just some of the words I would use to describe this master piece."

The Good Sheppard [2006] -- Crime // CIA // Drama
This is a film about a young CIA officer. It follows two connected story lines and is incredibly difficult to follow. It's tough to say more in two sentences. Shit that was three. Whoops. OH GOD SHTAP!
"This is the type of film that unless you lived it, studied it, or you're high as balls and don't care, you just wont enjoy. Don't let me deter you, if you've got the mind for it by all means watch it... but with a grain of salt that it's more a character study than a dramatic story of the CIA."

[2011] Byzantium -- Drama // Vampire
Byzantium is a movie about 2 Vampires living in the present day and their struggle.
"I would recommend this movie, but only to vampire genera lovers, or people who like easy to follow classical stories. It's great for a rainy day."

Gone Baby Gone [2007] -- Drama // Crime // 5-Stars
Gone Baby Gone is a story of a private investigator, tasked to find a kidnapped child in Boston. This is probably my favorite movie.
"I would recommend this movie to just about anyone who enjoys fine cinema and fantastic writing & directing. This movie will take your breath away, make your heart stop, make your head spin, and make your stomach churn. A+ movie!"
