He said/she said: Transformers: Dark of the Moon
I’ve only seen most of the first Transformers movie, none of the second, and most recently the third, after much positive buzz. So I don’t know a ton on the background of the plot and Shia LaBeouf’s character Sam. That said, I really enjoyed this third installment.

Here’s what I’ve been watching lately. Life in Flight : This was an uber short movie, well only an hour and 20 minutes.

Instead of the typical documentary following the main performing artists, this film offered a point of view we haven’t gotten before. Demetri Martin is Elliot Teichberg — a young man … Continue reading
I was pleasantly surprised while watching The King’s Speech from Director Tom Hooper (“EastEnders”) and writer David Seidler (The King and I). English films while usually always good in the end, aren’t top picks for me. I’d much rather watch American actors and directors. But I wholeheartedly enjoyed seeing into the life of English royalty … Continue reading
