    A Taste of: ALEXANDER and the Terrible, Horrible, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY

    October 9, 2014 /

    I was going to skip seeing Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, thinking I wasn’t in the mood for a tween type flick.  But after seeing the trailer several times, I had to admit the energy seemed crazy and fast paced, so I was curious to see if it lived up to the hype – it did, but not as I’d anticipated. The pacing is good (Directed by Miguel Arteta / Screenplay by Rob Lieber), but it’s not really a zany movie – even though, a series of No Good, Very Bad things do happen to the Cooper family, on one, incredibly long, very full day.…

    Wanted to Stay: THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU

    September 19, 2014 /

    Are you closer to your siblings now that everyone’s an adult, or was the bond tighter as children?

    Candi’s Corner: THE SPECTACULAR NOW

    August 21, 2013 /

      In the Age of “YOLO”– A Review of The Spectacular Now By Candace Cordelia Being the good and curious film reviewer that I am, I had to read some other movie reviews about The Spectacular Now before seeing the movie. Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a 92%, certified fresh rating, with critics calling it “original”, “zesty”, “humane” with lead actors Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley, described as “wonderful” and “one of the most appealing onscreen couples in recent memory”. When so much praise is given to a movie, my first feeling is excitement… and then skepticism crawls in. There have been a lot of movies that have been called…
