WALL-E
Everytime Pixar outdoes itself - but with WALL-E they have outdone themselves ten times over. This film was a joy to watch and experience from the first frame to the last - and believe me I stayed all the way until the very last credit had rolled. It’s that good.
Besides the amazing animation […]

The Happening
The only thing in The Happening is what is not happening. Its not scary, its not entertaining, its not creepy, its not fast-moving. Its just not good. Where is the Shyamalan that brought us The Sixth Sense? I want him back.

Hulk
Hulk green and mean. Hulk angry. Hulk […]

Probably the best comic-book adapted movie Ive seen since the first Spiderman. It blows everything away by a mile. Its gonna be a great summer for the movies if all the others live up to this one’s standard. Well done Marvel!

Speed Racer
Reviews of this movie has been horrible. Almost […]

Before the Devil Knows Youre Dead
Marisa Tomei is naked pretty much in the entire film which is awesome. So is Philip Seymour Hoffman, which is not so awesome.

We Own The Night
Just the run of the mill crime drama. Not bad, but predictable.

Away From Her
What do you do when all the other movies in the […]

Esquire asks whether Chris Nolan (director of Batman Begins and Dark Knight) the greatest director alive? Well, they just figured that out? I’ve loved Nolan’s work since 2000 - after watching the brilliantly amazing and awesomely original Memento. You need to watch it if you havent already.

Are these “the most advanced headphones ever?” Bullshit. I think Grado will disagree.

We’ll never get these guys to quit saying “FAIL.” At this point, it’s in their DNA. Like steampunk, Cheetos, and crying while masturbating.

The first War Crimes trial started in Gitmo Bay this week. Who is on trial you ask? A murderer of thousands? A mastermind of the terrorist attacks? Nope. Its for a fucking driver! They are charging a driver that drove Osama around for War Crimes. Hamdan is no doubt not without some sort of guilt, but War Crimes? Poor guy was just at the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is further proof of how little the Americans know of the culture of that part of the world. Growing up in Pakistan, I had not one but two drivers, as well as a lot of “domestic help.” Every middle-class family does. Did our driver know everything about our family? No. Learning about your “enemy” if more than half the battle, and the American’s cant even get that right.

If you thought Bush was bad - learn how much worse McCain could be. That old fart doesnt know anything except killing people, and I bet he would suck at that too.

The Presidential Memorial Commission was successful in their petition to add a measure to the San Francisco ballot in the November election to rename a sewage plant to “George W Bush Sewage Plant.” Ive said it before - California dances to its own beat and San Francisco is literally the best city in the world. Period.
