To Kill a Mockingbird (1962)

A very significant masterpiece of all time. A must see for all ages, classes and races around the world.

The Echo (2008)

Haven't seen the original (Siagw [2004]) yet but I guess it's a decent remake overall. A good ghost story set on a 'noisy' old apartment building. Worth a watch.

Whoever said that the opening montage was a little sad hit the nail on the head there - though I find that the subject matter of death was treated in a respectful and gentle way, doesn't bring the overall tone of the film down so much, just throws some melancholy into the mix - it's a good introduction to the character. It's a nice tale of moving on, love, loss, rediscovery of passion and friendship, and expectations not always turning out as one might think in life. Very solid film if you ask me, for all ages. It's funny too, and I think in regards to the animation some of the textures are really, unbelievably good.


"UP" 8/10 ^^ Couldn't have said it better myself.

The original's alright, but nothing incredible. The rotting face stain in the ceiling was pretty creepy, but other than that, it was pretty mediocre... I did like how the tenant wasn't the only person who heard the apparitions making noise.

Trick R Treat – Not sure why everyone was so excited about this. It wasn’t a bad movie, but it sure wasn’t anything to get excited about and was far from scary. Oh well.

I don't have any 'A++' grade in my book, buddy:) but yes..there is 'A+' which I like to keep for supreme masterpieces of cinema. And Mocking Bird was actually very close to that for sure.

The Majestic (2001)

A good collaboration of Darabont & Carry. Liked this movie.

Yes, everyone knows A+ is the highest grade. Myself included.

This is the only movie in history which I give an A++. Its that special. Don't know if anyone else shares my sentiments.

It is #1 in my all-time faves list. And it will always be #1.

Really good adaptation of the book (well kinda) - loved the sets, Langella was great (although a little Goth Romantic) - Olivier was a bit of a dissapointment in it....

Poor Quincey - he never gets a look in on these movies.

I have a very distant connection to this movie. The script it was based on had its original production at the Cherry Streey Theater, off-broadway, directed by Robert Hall. The very same Robert Hall, years earlier had directed me in my first three real plays, for the Omaha Junior Theatre. He later went on to draw for Marvel Comics- Godzilla among other titles.
