Bio: Chris graduated with a degree in Film and TV Production, and currently works in the software industry. This is his second attempt at becoming an entertainment critic, after a failed attempt in the late 1990’s. The new and improved Chris has been writing for the past two and a half years at a fast and furious pace, with somewhere in the realm of 1000 reviews covering film, television, and music. If he could only watch five movies for the rest of his life, they would be Star Wars, The Crow, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Kill Bill. If he could only listen to five bands: Dream Theater, Fear Factory, Warren Zevon, Insane Clown Posse, and David Bowie. Five television shows: Farscape, Battlestar Galactica, Scrubs, Seinfeld, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. All choices subject to change without notice.

DVD Review: Walk the Line – Extended Cut A few years back we got a film about a musician who over came great odds and family tragedy to become world renowned, well respected, a legend in his own lifetime. His life was not an easy one, it was fraught with drug abuse, infidelity, and just overall troubles, all despite his considerable music talent that connected with a legion of fans, and whose influence is felt to this day.

How to describe Sunshine? Well, it’s a blend of 2001, Event Horizon, Solaris, and even has a dash of Jason X for balance. An odd mix to be certain, but even with all of those flavors, director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland make it all seem fresh. |
