Yes, No, Maybe: Maybe
Stephen Dorff, Elle Fanning, Chris Pontius
Directed by Sofia Coppola
If I was in my twenties I owuld have loved this moview: beautifully shot, well-acted and well directed. The drawn out story, told mostly visually, of how shallow and empty the life of an extremely rich, well-liked, successful actor can be. But I've grown a lot since my twenties and I need more from a story that I've seen many times. But, if you're in your twenties, I think this may be an interesting watch because you may not have yet become jaded to this theme. I found it immensely preferable to I Am Love. Read a movei review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes!
Catherine Keener, Oliver Platt, Rebecca Hall, Amanda Peet, Sarah Steele
Director: Nicole Holofcener
That Catherine Keener - she is amazing: every movie she does is good and she's always good in it. In this one she has support by a strong cast, Platt, Hall, Peet, Steele and Ann Morgan Guilbert. I must admit her character hit close to home and perhaps Kate will resonate with many people in these dark times, when we're living quite well thank you very much and others are not. The movie stays true to it's story while making us laugh at ourselves and our predicaments. Read a Movie Review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Ryan Reynolds, Jose Luis García Perez and Robert Paterson. Director: Rodrigo Cortes
An entire movie with a guy trapped in a casket and buried - really? Really. It will have you on the edge of your seat for the whole 95 minutes. Keep reminding yourself it's a movie or else you'll start getting claustrophobic. Ryan Reynolds shows his true star power but holding us transfixed with just his presence. And at the end...well just remember to breathe. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake. Director: David Fincher
The movie that's on everyone's mind. Thought it was quite good but I think hearing all the hype, and currently under the spell of Sorkin's brilliant writing in the first years of The West Wing, I was expecting quite a lot. The sound wasn't great in the copy we received so maybe that was part of it. I think that, as a web designer, I'm burnt-out on people thinking they have to be on Facebook - or else! - and having to explain to them that FB is not magical road to search engine riches. But I digress: The acting was superb, the writing fast and smart, the story a compelling modern update of a familiar tragedy. The winners Facebook shareholders, the losers all those people who are giving away their privacy (that's 600 million and counting). Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes!
Banksy, Shepherd Fairey, Thierry Guetta and various players. Director: Banksy
What is art? Can street art be sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars and still be street art? Is visual art an investment or a pleasurable/thrilling/inspiring feast for the eyes? If a person directs the production of 'art' are they an 'artist'? There's lots more we'd like to say about ETTGS but we've been thinking about it for a week or two - now it's your turn.
Andy, we miss you.

Anton Newcombe, Joel Gion, Courtney Taylor-Taylor, Matt Hollywood
Director: Ondi Timoner
You may have heard of the Dandy Warhols but if you haven't heard of their friends/nemesi Brian Jonestown Massacre then you're in for a treat. While the Dandy's spun off into a music contract, slick videos, and sylists, the BJM's stayed true to their drink, drugs and the hippest, trippiest, coolest, most inspiring, psychedelic music to never hit the airwaves. As Exit Through The Gift Shop made one ponder about art, Dig! get you wondering what success is and how do you stay alive and pay the rent while comitting yourself to a passionate and wild project. If only Hunter S. Thompson was still around to discuss these important wordly matters with. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes!
Soledad Villamil, Ricardo Darín, Pablo Rago, Carla Quevedo.
Director: Juan JosE Campanella
Academy Award Winner, Best Foreign Film 2010. Set in Argentina this film so good that you are going to freak out. I thought it had ended several times and was ready to pack it in and say what a great film and it just kept on going on with it's powerful story. It's got it all: drama, suspense, art house, love story, mystery and creepy. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: No
George Clooney, Paolo Bonacelli, Violante Placido, Irina Björklund.
Director: Anton Corbijn
I'm usually a fan of Clooney and his choice of movies but this one just didn't measure up to his high standards. It's on it's way to cool town but never quite manages to gas up and reach city limits. It's stylish Clooney but the plot moves so slowly that I had to pinch myself to stay with it and for the first time I really didn't care what happened to the man, he didn't seem like someone I'd want to know or cared what happened to him. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor, August Diehl.
Director: Phillip Noyce
Not a huge fan of Jolie but she makes a good secret agent: ala Bond or Bourne. Salt works for the CIA, is she a double agent really working for the Russians; the movie will keep you guessing. What I would like to see are more women in the story either as friends or foes - it seemed to be Angie vs the world of men. Let's get a whole crew of kick ass women rockin' the world. As a fast paced entertainment, the movie was good and there's no question it's not the last we've seen of Salt. And here's something interesting: Tom Cruise was offered the role but chose Knight & Day instead. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Shia LaBeouf, Michael Douglas, Carey Mulligan, Josh Brolin, Susan Saradon.
Director: Oliver Stone
Picking up where the original Wall Street left off, the new Oliver Stone Wall Street is star-studded with a nice cameo by the young guy from the first film. Stone follows the current economic farce pretty factually wtih a thinly veiled Goldman Sachs company in the villian role. Stone has Gekko out telling the truth, which may be the first time many have heard, and that's great. But it doesn't hold and soon we're back to movie land with a predictable outcome. It's too bad the story didn't keep up it's worthwhile message, but what can one expect - it's entertainment after all. It's our political representatives who should be rolling out the truth.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes, But Very Heavy
Noomi Rapace, Michael Nyqvist, Lena Endre, Peter Haber. Director: Niels Arden Oplev
The first of the Stieg Larsson books to be made into a movie and the most difficult one to watch due to it's subject matter. The 'girl' is amazingly strong and smart, role-model anyone? The story, acting, directing and staging are all very professional and worth watching, but let me just say once again - with subject matter that was very difficult to watch. A star-studded American remake of the Swedish one is already in production - can't anyone read subtitles anymore?

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes and Yes
Noomi Rapace, Michael Nyqvist, Lena Endre, Peter Andersson
Director: Daniel Alfredson - both movies
The second and third of the Stieg Larsson thirllers - it's ironic that even though the story line is not as gruesome (for me anyway) so I should be happy, I thought the tension and suspense of the first movie was much higher and therefore better. These movies go hand in hand with The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest picking up exactly where The Girl Who Played With Fire left off. Some things that were very cool in the first movie, are a little less amazing, but still worthwhile to round out the trilogy and get answers to a lot of questions. Read a The Girl Who Played with Fire review. Read a The Girl Who Kicked Hornet's Nest review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman, Burl Ives, Judith Anderson, Madeleine Sherwood.
Director: Richard Brooks
If you want to see what all the fuss was about Taylor and Newman, check into this Tennessee Williams play from 1958. And you see why they were the stars of their day.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Benicio Del Toro, Julia Ormond, Oscar Isaac, Rodrigo Santoro.
Director: Steven Soderbergh
An Argentinian and a group of Cuban exiles return to Cuba in 1956 to topple the US-friendly regime of dictator Batista. These two films follow Ernesto 'Che' Guevara for his years in Cuba and his tragic mission in Bolivia. An excellent recounting of Che's journey and why he is still admired are his idealistic life. Watch for the cameo by Matt Damon. Part Two is difficult to watch. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Philippe Petit, Jean François Heckel, Ardis Campbell, Jean-Louis Blondeau
Director: James Marsh
The amazing story of how a wire walking Frenchman brought his crazy idea to New York and managed to put up a wire between the (now gone) Twin Towers and balance himself as he crossed high above the heads of mere mortals. And then how he becomes mortal himself after the event. Very interesting from a post-2010 viewpoint - the minimal security that we all lived with in North America pre-2010. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Colin Firth, Julianne Moore, Matthew Goode, Nicholas Hoult. Director: Tom Ford
A stylish movie (how could it not be with Ford both writing and directing) with brilliant acting by Firth and Moore. Based on a Christopher Isherwood novel about a man who has lost his partner, this movie is as much about it's time, the early 1960's as it is about the impeccably dressed, intelligent characters.

Jonah Hill, Russell Brand, Elisabeth Moss, Rose Byrne, Sean Combs.

Not bad, but not enough laughs to recommend.
First time seeing Brand in a film and he was pretty okay.

Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, John Hurt, Tom Wilkinson, Joanne Whalley
Director: Malcolm Venville
The movie is more like a play so if you're looking for action, this isn't it. But if you're looking for great acting this is your movie. I'd say it's for a more mature audience who understand subtly and appreciate the actors Shakespearean qualities. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Andrew Garfield, David Morrissey, Paddy Considine, Warren Clarke
Director: Jarrold, Marsh, Tucker
Three BBC movies that are tragic and black and you wonder who writes this stuff, who makes this stuff and who watches this stuff - oh, I watched it. Quality acting is what makes this trilogy worth the effort although prepare to go to bed each night depressed. Must say I didn't like the way women were portrayed - weak and misguided.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes!
Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Rachel McAdams, Mark Strong
Kelly Reilly, Eddie Marsan
Director: Guy Ritchie
I like Guy Ritchie movies, even when they're good they are fun to watch and stylin' to look at and listen to. Now everyone is going to like Guy Ritchie because this version of Holmes is really good. The energy between Downey and Law is so fun that the movie just flies along and you don't want it to end. Luckily it does end on a franchise note. Who knew Ritchie would go mainstream and make even Mr Kermode like his film? Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Melissa George, Michael Dorman, Joshua McIvor, Henry Nixon
Rachael Carpanierrr
Director: Eric Canuel
I hadn't heard of this until my nephew told me it was his favourite movie - good choice. A real Canadian buddy movie: tough guy, woosy guy; styling, kitchy; dramatic, dark humour kind of film that includes Mr Canada - Rick Mercer and that shows that Canada needs both the English and the French - Idiot.

Yes, No, Maybe: No
Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer, Charlie Creed-Miles, David Bradley, Iain Glen, Sean Harris

I know what you're thinking, revenge movies are a dime a dozen, been there done that so many times. But this one stars one of your, and everybody else's, faves, Mr Michael Caine, so you take a chance. Stop! Don't do it! Even the mighty Mr Caine can't save this one. Better to watch Clint's Gran Torino's for the 10th time. Read a movie review.

Adam Scott, Brittany Snow
Alex Frost, J.K. Simmons
Director: Lee Toland Krieger
Really liked this. Pretty much just the four actors: I like JK Simmons in whatever he does. More isn't said than is, which is always a good sign. If you like smart movies, you like this one. Some say it uses the Sundance formula, maybe, but in a world of Hollywood, I'll take Sundance anytime. Looking forward to what the young (24) writer/director Krieger does next. Read a movie review.

I'm not good with horror movies. This one was really good, so good I had to leave. But my partner watched to the end and in his words 'that was wild'. He told me how it ended and it's very cool. More a psychological thriller than horror it's worth the price of admission. Just watch it with a friend who'll go the distance if you're a fraidy cat like me. Read a movie review.

Sweet Original story and Sam Rockwell does a great job. I'm not onf for sci-fi, kind of like folk music - don't go out of my way but usually I like it when I see it - this had me totally glued and I was cheering for Rockwell. Impressive. Read a movie review.

Yes, No, Maybe: Yes
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel, Geoffrey Arend, Chloe Moretz, Matthew Gray Gubler. Director: Marc Webb
Let me just say that if Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in it, I like that movie, really like it. From Brick, The Lookout, The Brothers Bloom - okay he is uncredited in The BB. But this kid is good. 500 Days is in the vein of Eternal Sunshine, of course not as perfect, that would be impossible it goes without saying, but this is a quirky love story where one believes and the other doesn't and then, no it's not what you think. And that's why I watch every JGL movie I can. Read a movie reivew.
