Gold Dust Movie Review

“Gold Dust” is an independent gem of a movie. It is not Fool’s Gold by a long shot. It is quirky and wacky release for DVD and Video-on-Demand, but I think it should be in Great Demand. It concerns a pair of oddball treasure hunters roaming throughout the Southwest desert looking for treasure, but finding mostly nothing but trouble. If you took “No Country for Old Men” and crossed it with crazy comedy — like ‘The Odd Couple’, you might get close to this movie. It might not have a huge budget or have major studio backing, but is a worth while nugget to find in these forlorn times. Read more

I Still Believe Movie Review

“I Still Believe” is a Christian themed story about a current Christian music star – Jeremy Camp – and the difficult journey he had with his wife, Melissa. Since this person is still around, the creators had Camp’s feedback and even his blessing on the way they tell his story. The story begins with him, but it ultimately gets back to his wife. She was stricken with a terrible physical burden and saw that it was lifted for a short time. Melissa then became ill once more, but her love and inspiration outlived her short experience on Earth.

Ordinary Love Movie Review

“Ordinary Love” is movie that is quite ordinary. If by that – ‘ordinary’ should mean: deeply emotional, very naturalistic, cleverly written (but not in a pretentious manner), wonderfully acted and full of subtle views of a strong and long-lasting marriage. In other words, this movie is not ordinary at all. But instead, it is a very positive portrayal of two people who are Best Friends – and just happen to be married. It is master-course in acting and shows how on-screen chemistry is the formula for beautiful way to see these characters. Read more

Call of the Wild Movie Review

“Call of the Wild” is based on the novel by Jack London. It is about the adventure and the danger found in the Yukon territory during the Gold Rush. The main character is a rugged outdoorsman, a prospector who values his freedom over gold. He meets up and befriends a very large dog, and they make their way up North into a massive and open wilderness. Harrison Ford plays the main role, and his adventures with Buck, the dog, are quite something to behold. Harrison Ford with a very, very big dog – you might want to call it “Raiders of the Lost Bark”, or “The Empire Barks Back”…. Read more

Sonic the Hedgehog Movie Review

“Sonic the Hedgehog” is a movie based on a video game of the same name. Just ask ‘Laura Croft: Tomb Raider’ how that usually works. (In a word – badly.) But lo-and-behold, the Sega Video Game people got all the correct creative types in a room and came up with – wait for it – a pretty darn good movie. It is attractive for kids who have played the game, and does not offend the parents of those same kids. Read more
