• The Throwbacks: “Boogie Nights” 25 Years Later

  

  By Christian DiMartino I have sung the praises of Paul Thomas Anderson a plethora of times, both on this site and in general. Whether it be Magnolia, or something a little more polarizing as Punch Drunk Love, or something as recent as Licorice Pizza, he’s a truly original and creative artist who makes movies that […]

• The Best Christian Bale Performances

  

  By Christian DiMartino Sometimes, I honestly, truly believe that Academy Award winner Christian Bale might be our best actor. Daniel Day Lewis, for similar reasons, is on that list, and of course Leonardo DiCaprio is right there with them. Those two might be the best, and their cinematic track records might be more impressive, but […]

• Every Tim Burton Movie, Ranked

  

  By Christian DiMartino Tim Burton turned 64 on August 25, and with that and the upcoming release of his Netflix series, The Addams Family spinoff Wednesday, I thought it would be a good enough excuse to talk about his body of work. Of which, I am honestly a big fan of. Many think that Burton […]

• A Trip Back To: The Happening (2008)

  

  “Cheese and crackers!” Recent Emmy winner Jeremy Strong (Succession) is the one who has the misfortune of uttering this exclamation in M. Night Shyamalan’s The Happening. Strong plays one Private Auster, who, under M. Night’s direction, almost acts as if he’s on the spectrum. Anyways, upon finding out that the next town over has a […]

• Review: Deepwater Horizon

  By Christian DiMartino Is it terrible that the chorus of the Ke$ha song “Blow” was stuck in my head while watching Peter Berg’s Deepwater Horizon? Yeah probably, but I never said I was a good person. Basically if you are aware of the story, you know that this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Alright, I’m done. Deepwater […]

• Tim Burton films: RANKED

  By Christian DiMartino I was sitting in some bulls**t class about maps or some s**t and it occurred to me: Tim Burton has a new movie coming out. So… I should rank his others. Because why would I pay attention to the maps? I personally love Burton, for the most part. His films, if all […]

• Great Movies: The Departed

  By Christian DiMartino I find it baffling that Martin Scorsese didn’t win an Oscar until The Departed. I mean sure, it was very well earned. But he should have picked up gold for Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and Goodfellas, to say the least. Still, his Oscar for The Departed was very well deserved, not even because the decades of snubbing, but also […]
