We as a people have a seemingly voracious appetite for all things dinosaur, especially after John Ostrom’s works about the Deinonychus Antirrhopus became public in the mid-1960s. And before we take another journey back to "Jurassic Park" next year, we have the animated anthology movie "Dinotasia" to keep us engaged. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2093 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 23:00:00 EST The first warning that "The Freebie" might not be everything it could have been is the omission of a credited writer in the opening credits, and that lack of a structured storyline resonates throughout star and first time director Katie Aselton's film. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2092 Thu, 28 Oct 2010 14:30:00 EDT As many people may know, Best Short Film is a category recognized by the Academy Awards. What most people may not know is that, through the years, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has actively been attempting to eliminate this category from official competition. "Invisible" is a good reason not to. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2091 Sun, 15 Aug 2010 18:57:22 EDT Exceptionally well executed, this product of the AFI Directing Workshop for Women demonstrates the relevancy of the short film as a format and why it is so important to encourage the development of women filmmakers. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2090 Sun, 15 Aug 2010 18:49:37 EDT A hyper adaptation of the comic book series that ran from 2003 to 2006, "The Losers"t makes a nice, loud impression on the big screen. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2089 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:42:11 EDT It's possible that Michael Douglas is merely acting in "Solitary Man," playing a womanizing smooth-talker facing his dire twilight years while the world seems to get younger and younger, perhaps out of spite. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2088 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:40:53 EDT At this point, there are as many oceanic documentaries as there are stars in the sky, or perhaps fish in the sea. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2087 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:40:10 EDT On the plus side, Jennifer Lopez is the most appealing she's been in quite some time in "The Back-Up Plan." http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2086 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:39:18 EDT I found it extremely tiring to accurately deduce what the documentary "Exit Through the Gift Shop" is attempting to communicate. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2085 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:38:02 EDT Chasing a dose of speed with a shot of Sergio Leone, the South Korean western "The Good, The Bad, The Weird" is an exaggerated, highly charged valentine to the Spaghetti Western. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2084 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:37:29 EDT In the 12 years since James Cameron last directed a feature film (a little art-house number called "Titanic," heard of it?), much has changed in the growing field of special effects. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2083 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:36:27 EDT "A Shine of Rainbows" is a film trapped in amber. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2082 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:35:06 EDT It's ballsy to even attempt a workplace comedy after Mike Judge's "Office Space" locked down the genre over a decade ago. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2081 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:34:18 EDT The Walt Disney Animation Studio has such a storied history of screen classics, it's nearly impossible to fully consider the artistic roller coaster ride the company has endured since Walt introduced the world to the miracle of feature-length animation back in 1937, with "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2080 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 08:46:49 EDT It's difficult to tell exactly how "Kick-Ass" considers the comic book/superhero genre. http://www.filmjerk.com/reviews/article.php?id_rev=2079 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 08:45:54 EDT
