TRANSCENDENCE – Not Quite
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Warning, this review has slight spoilers It’s nice to see a movie where Johnny Depp looks like Johnny Depp, or at least like a real person for a change. I read an interview where Depp says he doesn’t like the way he looks, which is why he hides behind elaborate characters. What kind of dysmorphic nonsense is that! In Transcendence, Depp plays Dr. Will Castor, a leading authority on Artificial Intelligence, with a scholarly, science-geek kinda sexy going on. Of course we don’t get to enjoy Depp in the flesh for long, as he’s soon targeted with radiation poisoning and begins to look ghastly. By…

HER
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor LOVE TECHNOLOGY STYLE – HER Every year there’s that film that critics decide to laud and it gets agreed upon this is the one to tell audiences to see – this year that movie is “her“, a film by Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Where the Wild Things Are) a filmmaker who seems to be in the inner circle when it comes to praise, even from the harshest critics. I suppose I sound like I’m about to disagree with their choice – ummm…, well, no. I wouldn’t disagree with the fact that Her is very creative with an interesting concept and opens up good…
