Review: THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN

Steven Spielberg was born to direct animation. He's easily one of the most cinematically creative people of all time, and The Adventures of Tintin is mind-blowing showcase of what movies would look like if Spielberg was not limited to the restrictions of live-action. The Adventures of Tintin is, if nothing else, Steven Spielberg without limits.

Review: THE EAGLE

               The Eagle is so much like an old school period piece that it feels almost new on how it goes about telling a story. It is the type of story that would have been told in the pre-CGI era when making things blow up was too expensive to have in every movie. The Eagle seems to be the type of story Ridley Scott would make if studio executives wouldn't interfere and inject CGI-steroids into his projects. The Eagle is a grounded down-to-earth movie that draws its strength from its simplicity.
