I've always found film criticism to be like a fun competition. I love reading other reviews and having discussions on movies. The ability to really analyze a film and write a review better than anyone else is something that I strive for. My goal is to help promote the great film-makers that deserve attention and help guide you away from the films not worth your time. The more high-quality films we support, the more great films will be made.
Favorite Films: There Will Be Blood, Pulp Fiction, Minority Report, City of God, The Fountain, The Prestige, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, Star Wars.
Credits: DVD Reviewer for Movieweb.com (2006-2007).
