On the Edge (2001)
IMDB: On the Edge (2001)
- OVERALL: 87
- VISUAL: 82
- STORY: 94
- ACTING: 84
- BETTER THAN: Neverwas
- NOT AS GOOD AS: Secretary
- WAS MISSING: A cameo by Morrissey.
- SEE IT FOR: Proof that Dreamsicles make everything better. Seriously though, this is not for the squeamish or easily depressed. Cillian Murphy's baby blues tell a well-written story that is surrounded, unfortunately, by the mediocrity of the rest of the film.

Feast
IMDB: Feast
- OVERALL: 80
- VISUAL: 84
- STORY: 87
- ACTING: 68
- BETTER THAN: The Hills Have Eyes II (2007)
- NOT AS GOOD AS: The Descent
- WAS MISSING: There are so many ways that this is a tongue-and-cheek send up of bad horror-action films that it probably could've thrown in a bit more sex and rock and roll.
- SEE IT FOR: With about 10 characters each getting their own G.I. Joe profiles, there's bound to be at least a couple that you are rooting for. For every bad performance, there's somebody with a good one. Allen and Rollins are quite tasty, though you won't want to eat during this Feast. Jason Mewes as Jason Mewes is also something you don't see every day.

Miss Potter
IMDB: Miss Potter
- OVERALL: 85
- VISUAL: 95
- STORY: 89
- ACTING: 71
- BETTER THAN: Cool World
- NOT AS GOOD AS: Finding Neverland
- WAS MISSING: A complete bibliography worked into the movie or the DVD extra features, but sadly, it's missing.
- SEE IT FOR: Art coming alive. Literally, in the form of Peter Rabbit! While not an amazing story, it's a pretty heartwarming look at a life I knew nothing about. Who needs friends when you have art supplies?
