Mosquita y Mari (2012)
By: Rob Perez (Two Beers) - So you know how it is. You hear about a film where the central characters are female. Interested. They’re both young. Still interested. Latina. Very interested.

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010)
By: Chris Sheridan (A Toast) - You all know the story: a human girl falls in love with a vampire guy. It is a forbidden love, but as we know, the most alluring things are the ones we should not have.

The Great Gatsby (2013)
By: B-Side (Three Beers) - The best thing in the world for a Baz Lurhmann movie to be is a beautiful little fool.

Upstream Color (2013)

By: Jenna Zine & Larry Crane (A Toast) – Welcome to Pillow Talk, a He Said/ She Said review of films! We’re just a married couple trying to navigate sharing the Netflix queue while balancing our diverging tastes in movie genres. Sometimes we agree – and sometimes one of us loses our place in line!
To the Wonder (2013)
By: Bill Arceneaux (A Toast) - There aren’t very many filmmakers that I can name that are “bulletproof” to reviews. I don’t mean from reviews that would hurt their box office (a status that Dennis Dugan enjoys), but from getting bad reviews in general – from me, I mean. Terrence Malick is the only one
Vanilla Sky (2001)
By: Matt Conway (A Toast) – Tom Cruise is one of the most polarizing stars in Hollywood, but also one of the biggest.
