That building sure looks like the RBC tower on Bay at Front in Toronto.

Kick-Ass – a movie I think I want to see
Published by January 9th, 2010 in 2010, Cool Web Stuff and Movies. 0 CommentsVery funny movie.
More funny was the crowd at the Cineplex for the 5pm show. There was a fairly even split between thirtysomething’s and septuagenarians. It was very strange. Leah and I speculated that they were in the wrong theatre and that once the previews were complete and the movie started they’d all leave. But they [...]
On Saturday afternoon, Leah and I decided we needed a break, and stopped in for a movie. This film is exactly what you expect from the cast and team. It’s funny from start to finish, and avoids most of the tired pratfalls that other “bromance” movies succumb to…
The trailers are a bit misleading, and give [...]
Last night Leah and I finally saw Slumdog Millionaire – and it’s worthy of the hype, praise and awards. It presents a world so foreign, yet so familiar, that I was instantly hooked. The story, and the way it is presented, is engaging and the characters are completely believable.
Leaving the theatre with a smile on [...]
Last night Leah and I along with Mike and Nancy saw Zack & Miri Make A Porno at The Beach Theatre. The theatre is much different than our “home” theatre, aka The Queensway Cineplex. The Beach is small, quant, and quiet; the polar opposite of The Queensway. The only downer is that you have to [...]
REVIEW: Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
Published by October 15th, 2008 in 2008, Chris and Movies. 0 CommentsAnh.
Is that how you’d spell that sound that people make when they neither like or dislike something? If so, that’s what I thought of the movie. Michael Cera plays the same character he’s played in every movie I’ve seen him in. The “cameos” by John Cho (Harold of Harold and Kumar) and Andy Samberg (SNL, [...]
Burn After Reading is what they should have done with the script
Published by September 17th, 2008 in 2008, Chris, Complaints and Movies. 0 CommentsUggh…. there were a few funny spots but the even the “league of morons” featured was not enough to make this a worthwhile trip to the theatre.
Kudos to the trailer/commercial editors as they really sucked me in on this one… and it’s rare that I get this hosed on a movie not living up to [...]
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Published by April 20th, 2008 in 2008, Chris and Leah, Friends, Goin' Out and Movies. 0 CommentsWay back in December I posted a preview for this film, and today we’re going to see it with Trevor and Dana! The early reviews on Rotten Tomatoes are good, so it should be a good time at the theatre.
Making use of a gift card we received for Christmas, Leah and I hit the theatre this weekend to see “The Bank Job”.
The 60s, London fashion, corrupt cops, good guys disguised as bad guys and the appearance of a double cross or two kept my attention for the full two hours. Based on a [...]
MOVIE REVIEW: Definitely, Maybe
Published by March 12th, 2008 in 2008, Chris and Leah and Movies. 0 CommentsAnother love story from the people who brought us Love Actually and About A Boy, but this time it stars Van Wilder! Or at least the actor who played Van The Man – Ryan Reynolds. I can’t see him on screen and not think Van Wilder. And that really impacts my ability to enjoy a [...]
