An Open Letter From Sean Collins-Smith Looks Back, Forward, and Everywhere Else
The Avengers
As far as comic book films go, you'd be hard pressed to find one better than Joss Whedon's "The Avengers", the culmination of years' worth of planning by Marvel Studios. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Fright Night
Oh another vampire movie? That’s original. And it’s a remake? Maybe I can take a nap until David Tennant shows up. WRONG. By Allie Dahl.
Babel
Though we've seen this technique before in films like "Crash", "Babel"'s insistence on focusing on the harmful consequences of language barriers makes it a unique exploration of the interconnectedness of our world. By Nate King.
The Last Picture Show
The Last Picture Show, Peter Bogdanovich’s masterpiece about the sexual angst of a small Texas town, not only discusses a disappearance of classic Hollywood Cinema prior to a nation in warfare, it is itself the very example of cinema that has disappeared. By Nate King.
Cowboys & Aliens
Daniel Craig has got a bionic wristwatch that shoots lasers and the only good use it's put to is blowing up a few aliens. There was so much potential. Think of James Bond, Casino Royale. Think of what Daniel Craig is capable of. The screenwriters just really didn't give him anything to do. Such a shame. By Nate King.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II
Everything comes together in the conclusion to this 8-part film series, a wonderful combination of great acting, terrific writing, and magical wondrousness that has captivated millions of viewers for the last decade. By Mel Mollick.
Bad Teacher
As far as raunchy R-rated comedies go, you could do a lot worse than Jake Kasdan’s Bad Teacher, a film which uses its cast to great effect yet succumbs to a sadly predictable ending. By Sean Collins-Smith.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon
If you can get past the cardboard characters, the awful new actress and the boring first 90 minutes, there's a halfway decent action flick here. It just takes forever to get there. By Sean Collins-Smith.



Star Trek: Into Darkness (IMAX-3D)
A cold, unimaginative sequel, "Star Trek: Into Darkness" leaves you wanting more - and not in a good way. By Sean Collins-Smith.
