Okay, so Miracle at St. Anna was not as good as some may have thought. But Burn After Reading was not disappointing at all. A worthy follow up and return to the darkly humorous side of the Coen Brothers. Well there is no shortage of great film coming this autumn, so keep a watchful eye on these (hopefully) brilliant movies coming to theaters this fall…

Some are expecting it to bomb and some are expecting it to be the next ”Passion of the Christ.” If anything, it’ll be like World Trade Center; lukewarm and not controversial enough. But I could be wrong. It could very well be an Oscar contender.

Just in time for Halloween, a film for fans of horror and French weirdness should be very happy with this wildly inventive and visually dazzling collection of fearful tales by six of the world’s most renowned comic and graphic artists – Blutch, Charles Burns, Marie Caillou, Pierre Di Sciullo, Lorenzo Mattotti, and Richard McGuire.

The Soloist

A film that analyzes the insanity inside all of us and our deep love for music. It seems as though Robert Downey Jr. is quickly becoming one of my favorite actors. He’s had quite a year and this film may solidify his rightful place among the great actors of our generation. Oh and Jamie Foxx is awesome as usual.
