“the king’s speech” film review

Posted on February 23, 2011 by t. sterling — Leave a comment

The King’s Speech is a pun. Well, the title is a pun. It’s all about how King George VI came to be in power and how he’s had to deal with his embarrassing speech impediment. All of this being based on a very…

true grit (2010): film review

Posted on February 20, 2011 by t. sterling — 3 Comments

I’m not too crazy about western movies, but I don’t hate them and I’ll watch them over a horror flick any day. Or most days. Plus I’m really starting to admire the talented and versatile actor that is Jeff Bridges. But if…

Posted on January 28, 2011 by t. sterling — Leave a comment

This might seem like an odd or obscure pick for me, only because of the video I’m posting along with it… which is why I’m posting two videos to explain why I chose this song. But then again, do I…

the inevitable oscar nod snub(s)

Posted on January 25, 2011 by t. sterling — Leave a comment

The Oscar nominations are in. (How cliché is that phrase today?) And closely followed is the “snubbed” list. Surely you can find the nomination list anywhere, and they probably have their own list of snubs and in a day or…

tron legacy: film review (video)

It normally doesn’t take me a week and a half to write a film review, but I’ve been experimenting with webcams lately and thought I’d try a video review. However, as much as I love writing, I went off-script and…

black swan: film review

Posted on December 14, 2010 by t. sterling — 1 Comment

The funny thing about Black Swan is that I didn’t have a strong interest or desire to see it in theaters, especially since learning it would be in limited release. Then with it doing well in the specialized markets, the…

running away with kanye west

Posted on October 25, 2010 by t. sterling — Leave a comment

I could be incorrectly using “Runaway” as a pun for this post, but as a title it works. I’ve watched Kanye West’s short film Runaway twice now and I had to let the images and music soak in before I…

my top 10 most hated movies

Posted on October 18, 2010 by t. sterling — Leave a comment

Creating this list wasn’t easy to do. Why? Because I had to search deep, deep, deep in my memory of films I’ve seen and truly disliked, hated, and/or made me angry. I have a weird switch in my brain that…

“the social network” film review

Posted on October 1, 2010 by t. sterling — 2 Comments

As I walked out of the theater, I asked myself how I was going to start this review. I try to avoid reading any reviews because I don’t like to get hyped up for something just to be let down.…
