The Cabin in the Woods The Cabin in the Woods

 

Horror Done Right

Elisabeth Leitch

A gem of absurd originality amidst a sea of over-processed unoriginality, Cabin has so much fun and is so committed to following its unique concept of horror through that it will have you jumping, screaming, and laughing from its beginning to its very end.

Beyond the Culture Wars 

CoachZ

We all have things like Donald Miller's umbrella that we do, simply because the culture tells us it is just the way things are done. Whatever your culture (Christian or non-Christian) is telling you to do with Jesus, question it.

Monsieur Lazhar Monsieur Lazhar

Darrel Manson

"I was interested in immigration, and I wanted to use that in a film," says Canadian director Falardeau. "Not necessarily to talk about immigrants, although I wanted to do that, but to talk about ourselves through the eyes of an immigrant."

Sarah Brock Love and Hollywood

Sarah Brock

Love. It's one of the main things that the Bible teaches us. It's something that we hear about at church all the time. We even dream about it. Love is the greatest feeling in the world, but it can also be misunderstood and even damaging.  

 

So, why am I bringing Hollywood into this?

 

For starters, it makes for a great story. Almost every story out there has some kind of link to love in it. Also, celebrities get together and get married all the time. It's completely normal to hear about famous couples.  

 

But, do you know what else is normal when it comes to Tinseltown?

Sharrer & Sahms

 

The headlines of the sports world have been swirling this past week, but not with the majesty of Opening Day in Major League Baseball or the sensational win by Bubba Watson at the Masters on Sunday.  

 

Instead, the focus has been on rules involving two teams in their offseasons.

 

Specifically, how far can you bend rules without breaking them? And should you be pushing them that far anyway?

 

The first example involves the New Orleans Saints, who have made their living recently by stretching the rules as far as they can to give their team success.


The second example hasn't been discussed as much, but the issue of playing by the rules still exists. 

The guilty party is a Baptist school known as Baylor University...

 Streep Becomes Her

Jacob Sahms

Now on Blu-ray. Meryl Streep makes you forget she's not Margaret Thatcher, but is that enough to make this movie "good?" The movie itself is told in starts and stops as memories themselves, and the overall film itself is not quite as entertaining as I hoped.
