It's been nearly six months!!

Here is a quick list of movies I've seen in the last few months with my equally quick recommendations. *Note, since it's Oscar time, you best be willing to head out to your local Art House Cinema...or Blockbuster...

Pan's Labyrinth: SEE IT NOW!

Curse of the Golden Flower: AVOID IT ALWAYS!

Letters from Iwo Jima: SEE IT NOW...but only in a stadium style theatre as I kept having to lean to one side to see all of the subtitles around the guy's head in front of me.

Little Children: Read Kevin Smith's blog, he said it best: The One That Would've Won Best Picture If Harvey Weinstein Had Released It Four Years Ago, Circa Miramax. **Note for anyone who knows Helen Carey: She's Jean!

Notes on a Scandal: ...C'mon, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, and Cate Blanchett, do I even need to write something here?

Shortbus: RENT IT LATER...but don't watch it with your mother, unless you and your mother regularly watch porn together.

The Departed: SEE IT NOW or RENT IT TUESDAY!

Borat: Eh...There are worse things you could do with your time.

For Your Consideration: SEE IT NOW! Christopher Guest's Gang at their best!

The Pursuit of Happyness: Will Smith doing what Will Smith does best: making you love him! And his kid's nothing to scoff at either!

The Break Up: Um, yes please. Please break up "And burn the tape" says co-contributor, AJ.

The Queen: Long live Queen Mirren!

Marie Antoinette: RENT IT NOW! Even with Kirsten Dunst, it's a pretty spectacular piece of film...but it is pretty long, use that pause button!

Little Miss Sunshine: RENT IT NOW!! So very, very wonderful!

Snakes on a Plane: SEE IT DRUNK!!


I'm sure there are many other movies that I saw between the time that I saw Wordplay and last weekend when I saw The Departed. Keep an eye out for Lindsey's one-sentence reviews, Episode Two: Back to the Reviews Three!
