Review:

A man (Brad Pitt) and his wife (Jessica Chastain) raise three boys in the 1950’s in this wonderful story about life and growing up, but it’s not all fun and laughter. He wants the boys to be strong, to be able to stand up on their own, but his methods to get them there aren’t always the most generous or kind. The tough love that he shows them in childhood goes on to haunt the eldest as an adult (Sean Penn) who seeks out the meaning of his own life in the outside world. Read more…

Review:

Po (Jack Black), the lovable panda who reached the goal of being Dragon Warrior in the first movie is happy in the Valley of Peace, protecting it from evil that is always out there. Course this is a pretty easy job when he has a whole group of friends to help him. There is Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogan), Crane (David Cross), Viper (Lucy Liu) and Tigress (Angelina Jolie). But when Po discovers that he is adopted, which shouldn’t come as a shock considering his father is a goose, he decides to go in search of his real parents. Meanwhile, Lord Shen (Gary Oldman), an evil peacock has his own parent issues and wants to wreak havoc on the Valley of Peace as a way to deal. Will Po be able to stop him and discover what family really means? Read more…

Review:

The Hangover Part II continues a little while after the events of the first film. It seems that Stu, who was going to marry Heather Graham’s character in the first one, had a change of heart and they broke up. In this one, he has a new flame Lauren (Jamie Chung) with whom he sets a date to be married. Fearful though that his pre-wedding process will go awry like Phil’s did in Las Vegas, he opts for a more traditional brunch rather than a crazy bachelor party. And since it’s a calm event that couldn’t possibly go wrong, Lauren leaves the wolf pack (Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms, and Justin Bartha) in charge of her 16 year old brother Teddy. But when they wake up in Bangkok, they don’t know how they got there or where Teddy is. They must find him and get back before the wedding or heads will role, most likely Stu’s. Read more…

Review:

When a family visits Paris on business, they take along a young couple (Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams) who are just about to be married. But what they discover is that their idea of the grass being greener on the other side of the world is about to be shattered and it will have a profound effect on their relationship.

Gil Pender, a Hollywood writer, is fascinated with the city of Paris, all the culture, and where most of the great writers once worked. He loves the idea that writers were inspired in various restaurants across the French city, that they lived such a romantic life. Being that this is his first novel, he hopes the city too will inspire him to greatness. But in his quest for the perfection of a city, he finds that perhaps it’s not all that unique and special as he fantasizes it is. And that thought brings about a change in what’s inside of him.
