I love movies

Ever since I was a young boy sitting next to my parents in the movie theater watching "The Jungle Book", I have enjoyed the escapism associated with those couple of hours in front of the "Big screen". Although I have a propensity for action flix, there is no subject that I thought was a waste of my time. Nonetheless, I can't say that I understand, "2001, A Space Odyssey", to this day. (Even with studying it in college almost 20 years ago) It doesn't mean that I can't appreciate Stanley's vision, however.

What I intend to do with this site is to comment on current movie releases as well as reminisce about some of the past achievements. It is important that I make one thing clear. Admittedly, there are good and bad movies out there. (God knows I've seen my share of both) But my comments will be driven with the intention of the celebrating the craft. My hat is off to those who sit in the director's chair, behind the camera, in the editing room, etc. Sometimes, the finished product is a big WOW! Your life feels enhanced in some way. And others, you walk away wondering if you could have better spent the time cleaning the dirt from underneath your toenails. Regardless of the result, it is not my intention to focus on the good or the bad of cinema. I watch movies to be entertained! Anyone who looks at it any other way has bigger issues than making sure that their "review" is timely posted.
