Movie review: Divergent: Insurgent( 101 % special)

Tris is Divergent. Not ten percent. Not forty percent. She is one hundred percent Divergent according to the Divergent scanner. We are halfway into Insurgent when this is established for a fact by the bad guys who capture and subsequently scan her. What Divergent exactly is remains a mystery, but it has something to do…

Movie review: American Sniper

Movie review: Fury

Whenever a Tiger I tank and SS troops appear together in a movie you can bet the federal gold reserve on it that this movie is not about historical accuracy. This doesn’t mean that Fury has no a sense of historicity, but world war II movies are actually never about world war II but about…

Henry and Kristl did not last to see 13 Assassins
“Gosh,” said Henry. He and Kristl were both gaping at the large screen that adorned one side of the wall and which had, mercifully, gone black. A soft sound of static emitted from the screen. It was the only sound in the otherwise silent room. Kristl pressed a button on her wrist watch and glanced…

Henry and Kristl spaced out on The Road(2009)
“Bleak, bleaker, bleakest. Is there a word that would top bleakest?” “Sunshine,” Henry said. “Sunshine?” Kristl’s jaw dropped and she gave Henry a look of incredulity. “Yes. It certainly would top bleakest.” “I am somehow missing…” “After the rain comes sunshine. Every dark cloud has silver lining. Come winter, come summer. So despair will inevitably…
