Pieta (2012)
By: Henry J. Fromage (Four Beers) – South Korea has gotten quite the reputation as an exporter of delightful, fully little romantic comedies fit for the whole family. This summer, Pieta will roll into theaters, and right into your hearts… Record scratch Nope, this is South Korean critically acclaimed fare, and furthermore, it’s from provocateur
Shutter Island (2010)
By: Eddie Duncan (Two Beers) - In the wake of a classic turned movie’s recent premiere, The Great Gatsby for those left wondering, I thought it might be nice to take a short stroll down memory lane of one of the greatest actors of all time: Leonardo DiCaprio in ‘Shutter Island’. Another book turned movie
The Loneliest Planet (2012)
By: Henry J. Fromage (Two Beers) – If you happen to be a fan both of globetrotting and movies, you’ve probably noticed by now the lack of films that properly convey what it feels like to travel on the cheap and off the beaten path. Basically, if you aren’t Hilton rich, you’ve probably never had
Jiro Dreams of Sushi (2011)
By: Henry J. Fromage (A Toast) – I like food as much as the next guy, but with my college-dulled palate, I’ve never been much of a foodie.

The Chumscrubber (2005)
By: Byron Davel (A Toast) - What an interesting movie. I first watched this movie when I was about 12, down in Durban and didn’t know what on earth was happening. But second and third time round, damn was it brilliant, a movie about ‘ The Chumscrubber’ a person who helps kids and parents deal with problems
Gone with the Wind (1939)
By: Oberst Von Berauscht (Six Pack) - Arguably the most beloved movie of all time, and adjusted for inflation, still by far the most successful. Gone with the Wind tells the story of Scarlett O’Hara (Vivian Leigh), the spoiled daughter of a plantation owner, and her quest for an unhappy life by falling in love
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. And they’re both lesbian. Very, very . . . well, you see where I’m going. What was the darling of many independent film festivals in
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. Still, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) fought through the prejudices of others
