The Curious Case of Benjamin Button review

When I saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I saw the first trailer to The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and I’ll admit that I was creeped out and I didn’t like the trailer at all. In fact I thought it looked completely terrible but how can that be when you have David Fincher directing, Brad Pitt starring and Eric Roth writing the screenplay.

Basically under each movie I’ve posted very brief comments about that film. You can consider them Extra Quick Thoughts …

Gran Torino review

Do you remember a several months back when rumors surfaced that Clint Eastwood was starring in a new movie called Gran Torino and everyone thought it was another Dirty Harry film?  Well it wasn’t, which sucks, but Gran Torino turned out to be just as entertaining as any Eastwood film.  Why?  Because it’s Clint Eastwood being Clint Eastwood and that makes Gran Torino one of my personal favorites of the year.  We all know that Eastwood has is own brand of acting that only he can pull off and just like …
