Teasers

Hoodwinked
I can't remember the last time I was this impressed by a PG Animated movie. I originally rented it because someone told me it featured a Ben Folds song. 

It is much more layered an complex than I anticipated. The music and visuals will keep kids happily engaged, but adults can thoroughly enjoy it as well. Set upon the basic story of Little Red Riding Hood, Hoodwinked provides a fun ride from start to finish, using a Rashomon-like storytelling device.


Lucky Number Slevin
I rarely get surprised by movies anymore.

So it's a real treat when I get blown away by something, when everything I thought I knew about a movie gets turned on its head.
