Gotta check out Joe Carnahan's latest since Lionsgate doesn't trust critics... there are a lot of kids here. I do try to give movies the benefit of the doubt when studios refuse to screen them in advance, and especially with this one that has so many people I like involved with it, from director Joe Carnahan (who co-wrote the script) to Kerry Washington and Mark Strong, probably one of my top 10 actors, and I love everything he does.

Another John Sayles movie I've known about but never seen. This was an absolutely terrific and powerful film about a West Virginia mining community in the 1920s with miners trying to form a union and being bulldozed by the company, and it's really amazing to watch this knowing some of Sayles' other films like Brother from Another Planet and the recently-watched City of Hope, because this is such a different setting and characters.

★★★½ Even Roger and Me didn't review the new Tsui Hark movie! Losers! :) Pretty cool to have Tsui Hark returning to a genre that he helped master in the '90s, and it's funny seeing this just a few weeks after seeing Zu: Warriors from the Magic Mountain, a movie he made over 40 years ago, because he's definitely gotten better at making these movies, especially with all the big special effects scenes, though the CG in this is a little wonky still.

I'm so happy that "Shoeless" Joe Jackson is going to finally be allowed back into the shoe store... you really can only go barefoot for so long.
Well, if both Jeff and David hated it, then I'm gonna have to jack up my box office prediction... cause they both tend to be wrong ;)
I don't always agree with @DavidPoland, but I've read everything he's written for the past 19 years. You should watch his daily videos, too. Today, DP offered his quick take on MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 8: It’s terrible. The new M:I movie is not the worst, but maybe the next-to-worst.
