Last year I reviewed two films from Korean director Chan-wook Park: his new release, Stoker, which I’ve referenced several times since then, and his most famous film, Oldboy. I watched these films a couple weeks apart, and it’s been over a year since then. I needed that year. I really needed it. Oldboy, for anyone who…
Baddie – Probably American ignorance, again. Lesson – I’m…not really sure. Given the impending awesomeness that will be Godzilla, I thought I would take a crack at a another Gareth Edwards film that’s been on my Instant Queue for a long time.

To remind everyone, next season will be the sixth and last, so hopefully it’ll be topnotch.…
As you hopefully know by now, this blog is dedicated to movies. And TV. But let’s say primarily movies. As writers and critics, we try to address every aspect of a film, especially those that make a film great. Alas, 700-1200 words isn’t quite enough to address every strength of a really strong movie.
