A Review of Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Super Bowl Special-The Corner Critic Reviews Half time Shows
UPDATE 2011: I used to look forward with eagerness at the Super Bowl Half Time Show. Janet Jackson, for a while, was the best thing to happen to them; it forced the NFL to actually pick great artists to perform, … Continue reading

A Double Bill-A Review of Blood for Dracula/Flesh for Frankenstein
These two films are often placed on a double bill together, and frankly share so many themes, actors, set pieces, mise en scenes, etc. that it has become impossible to separate them. Taken as a whole, the films represent Warhol’s … Continue reading
