Sunday Short Reviews

Every Sunday, Gill delves into his archive of over 800 movie reviews and randomly selects three for your enjoyment! Here are this week’s…

The Rocky Horror Picture Show
The music is awesome, Tim Curry is brilliant, and it’s the coolest interactive midnight movie you’ll ever see. Go to a showing on Halloween and you’ll agree – Rocky rules. Don’t dream it, be it.
5 out of 5

Where the Buffalo Roam
A nice attempt at capturing the legend of Hunter Thompson on film. Bill Murray gives a good depiction of the famous Gonzo journalist in this fictionalized interpretation of actual events. A treat for Thompson fans, and a prime example of just how much of a cultural icon the manic, insane writer really was.
3.5 out of 5

o Brother, Where Art Thou?
The Coen Brothers’ interpretation of Homer’s “The Odyssey” shines as one of the most interesting, quirky, period piece/quasi-musicals in movie history. Watch it for the characters, stay for the soundtrack, then watch it a million more times just for the fun of it.
