The Vow is exactly what you expect from watching the trailer. This is a good thing, generally, because it means that you can watch those three minutes and know, absolutely, if this movie is going to be worth your time. But let me help you even further.

Nowadays, it’s really easy to get lost on the Internet. Days can go by before you realize you haven’t left that blue glow and you’re still wrapped in the towel you showered in from Tuesday morning. It happens to the best of us; I know from personal experience. And don’t get me wrong – the […]
People always seem incredibly surprised when they find out I had, until recently, never seen The Laramie Project. I’m big on gay rights, extreme violence irks me more than almost anything else on earth, I’m a sucker for life-based theatre and I even grew up in a small town that made national news because an […]

But Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close should have moved me. It made me cry, I’ll admit to that, but it didn’t move me- and yes, […]
I hate New England. I hate New England so much it makes me forget how much I hate New York. The life of an NFL fan is a tough one, especially for us Philadelphians. I’m a mid-20’s man living in between two cities (Boston and New York) who not only get more respect than my home […]
