When I Find the Ocean (review)
Ill-conceived, poorly written, badly acted, and incompetently directed, this is a disaster from start to finish.
Step Brothers (review)
Finally, here is a movie that satirizes the trend that’s all the rage now: men wallowing in adolescence through their 30s.
American Teen (review)
Does life change after high school, or is it just more of the same old shit? Seems to me it must be a little bit of both…

‘Sarah Connor Chronicles’ blogging: “Vick’s Chip”/“What He Beheld”
(previous: “The Demon Hand”) Man, I hate it when a network promotes a season finale as a two-hour spectacular or something and then it turns out to be just two one-hour episodes smashed up against each other.

Oh, you don’t like the way you’re being treated on the set, Actor Boy? Not getting enough lines? Asking for more money? Well, hey, look: We’ll just strip your Terminator character down to his metal … more…
