Movie Review: Total Recall
Mike Finkelstein wants to be a cowboy. Sadly, he is not a cowboy. But then, one day, some random, skeevy looking place gives him the chance to make him think he’s a cowboy. Instead of working, though, the process really, really, really messes with his mind, and now, he looks like Jack Nicholson at the end of One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest. Next time, maybe he’ll just go to the movies. Here is his review of “Total Recall”.

Movie Review: The Amazing Spider-Man

Movie Review: To Rome With Love
Mike Finkelstein took a trip to Rome recently. It was a city filled with wonderful people, beautiful women, and gorgeous scenery.

Here is his review of “To Rome With Love”.

Here is his review of “Seeking a Friend for the End of the World”.

Movie Review: Safety Not Guaranteed
Mike Finkelstein wants someone to go back in time with him. This is not a joke. You’ll get paid after you get back.

But before Mike leaves, he needs to go see a movie to get some advice on time traveling. Here is his review of “Safety Not Guaranteed”.

Movie Review: Dark Shadows
Mike Finkelstein is a vampire. (You couldn’t tell by his white skin?)

To prepare, he went to the movies and after accusing the theater owners of witchcraft, he sat down and watched a new Tim Burton film. Here is his review of “Dark Shadowsâ€.
