Diary Doesn\'t Disappoint, Unfortunately That\'s the Problem
| Tyler Perry strikes again as he brings his hugely successful theatrical stage play Diary of a Mad Black Woman to movie theatres nation wide. A cultural phenomenon this is Perry’s chance to bring his plays to a larger audience, unfortunately the movie, much like his plays falls flat.

Shame on Oprah
| I like Oprah with the best of them but I’m sorely disappointed in her interpretation of Zora Neale Hurston’s classic novel Their Eyes Were Watching God. I’m not sure if it was in interest of time, universal appeal or just a desire to focus on the love story of Tea Cake and Janie, but taking all of the racial elements out of the movie destroyed what is a beautiful love story and also made the movie’s narrative disjointed and rushed |
How to Write Great Movie Reviews for Your Entertainment Website
| If you have an entertainment oriented website then you’re always looking for fresh, new, fun and interesting material to keep your readers coming back for more. Movie reviews are a great way to do that. People always want to know what someone else thinks about the movie they want to see and they will scour the web to look for these opinions. Now you could syndicate another site’s reviews, but why do that? You want your readers to be loyal to you and your site and honestly, they want to hear what you have to say and what you think. If you’re thinking you haven’t the foggiest idea on how to write fun, compelling movie reviews, then think again. I’m going to tell you all you need to know.

So You Want to be a Movie Critic Part. I
| So you want to be a movie critic? Who doesn’t. It is a great job to have. I mean if you love movies, then what better way to make a living then watching them and telling people what you think about the movie you just saw. Most of us are already critics, but it is a big jump from just telling your friends what you think to making money telling the world what you think. The jump is big but not insurmountable and the first step is to know how to write a good review. Well of course, you may say, but it is not as easy as it may seem. Anybody can write a review, but not everyone can write a good, compelling, I have to read this person’s review before I go to the movie’s this weekend, review. What’s the difference?

Miss Congeniality 2 : Unfunny and Inept
| Well, it’s not awful. And that is the best I can say for Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous, the sequel to the surprise hit of 2000 Ms. Congeniality. Sandra Bullock reprises her role as Gracie Hart, the bumbling FBI agent who is skilled as an agent but woefully inept socially. |
Guess Who: Not Great but Not Bad Either
| A mix of “Meet the Parents” and “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner,” Guess Who is just funny enough. Starring Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher, Guess Who tells the tale of Simon Green (Kutcher) as he travels home with his girlfriend Theresa (Zoe Saladana) to meet her family. Of course she has failed to mention to anyone, particularly her father (Bernie Mac) that her new boyfriend is white.

Beauty Shop a Blast from the Past
| Beauty Shop tells the story of Gina (Queen Latifah) as she moves to Atlanta so her daughter can go to an exclusive music school. She finds a job as a stylist at a high end salon but after a confrontation with her boss leaves and opens her own beauty shop |
The Hitchhiker\'s Guide to the Galaxy
| The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy had the potential to be the best movie of the year. And yes, I sincerely mean that. Really, look at all it had going for it: it’s based on a classic book that has a cult following that could rival the Lord of the Rings trilogy. A very funny and talented cast that includes Tim Freeman (BBC hit series The Office) as everyman Arthur Dent, Sam Rockwell as the two headed, split brain, charming President of the Galaxy Zaphod Beeblevrox, Alan Rickman as the voice of the paranoid android Marvin who incidentally resembles an oversized storm trooper and Mos Def as the quirky and lovable, towel wielding alien and author of the guide, Ford Perfect. Throw in the fact that Jim Henson’s Puppet Shop created all of the aliens and creatures in the film so none of them end up looking like bad CGI you should have a innovative, funny, and ingenious movie on your hands….but that’s not what happened, not quite anyway.

A Lot Like Love
| Ashton Kutcher isn’t a great actor. Let’s face it he isn’t going to win any acting awards anytime in the near future. However he is quite competent at playing variations of Kelso the character that made him famous on the hit FOX series That 70’s Show. Kelso is bumbling, inept and manages to posses an uncanny combination of insecurity and confidence. Kutcher’s film roles don’t stray much from that formula and his character Oliver in his new movie A Lot Like Love isn’t an exception to the rule. While being light-years ahead of Kelso in the intelligence department he has all the other characteristics that make him just as endearing and lovable and fun to watch.
