Chico & Rita

In Chico & Rita, the animation is gorgeous, the music is fantastic. The story? That Rita is one crazy, opportunistic bitch. Could not warm up to her at all. Best animated cat fight though. Worth a look.

Men in Black 3

Nicole Scherzinger and a fabulous pair of Louboutins in the open scene of Men in Black 3, sets a fantastic tone for the film. The third in the Men in Black series is funny, poignant and action packed. The creature effects are entertaining and I really enjoyed the effects. I was surprised by a little emotional twist near the end. A nice addition to the series and a fun ride for the summer.

Newlyweds

Take a walk through Tribeca with the drama of Newlyweds, Ed Burns' latest love letter to New York. A newlywed couple has to deal with ex-spouses, siblings and the every day of their new life together. Well done.

Pariah

The film Pariah is a familiar story with amazing performances. When the woman who beat you says, "I hope you keep yourself safe", I just shake my head. I am not running, I am choosing. A powerful film I really liked.

The Avengers

I love a good action film. I love a good super-hero film. With 5 previous films, Marvel has set up the assembly of The Avengers. Captain America, Iron Man, The Hulk, Thor, Hawkeye and Black Widow join forces with S.H.I.E.L.D. to save the world. This movie is full of eye candy. Every hero gets their moment to shine. And did I mention crazy, super-villains? The action is fantastic, and so is this movie. Stay after the credits to be reminded that super-hero movies have a sense of humor. Well done.
