Airplane Films [Movie Reviews]


I've been flying around a lot and consequently have been force fed a series of films. Unfortunately, I'm sad to say that none of them were terribly inspiring. I did, however, get to see Milk in the Castro last week. To watch a film and then spill into the street where it all took place was both emotional and inspirational.

Here are a couple reviews:

Milk

Harvey Milk's journey
film story crescendoes, arcs
Sean and Josh connect
[4/5]

Burn after Reading
Cohens take DC
web of intrigue, spooks, ego
Ridiculous quirk
[2.5/5]

Sixty Six
Boy vies for a nod
Bar Mitzvah on World Cup Day
Bit Cheesy, Stirring
[2.2/5]

Flash of Genius
Ford steals invention
Author draws line, fights machine
standard biopic
[2.1/5]

The Day The Earth Stood Still
Is man destructive?
Keanu decides man's fate
So predictable
[2.0/5]

The Long Shot
Cube coaches football
Girl inspires team as QB
Too many cliches
[1/5]
