As I am now writing film reviews for examiner.com, I will no longer (not that I had been for a while now anyway) be posting movie reviews here, at least not in full. I will try to remember to post a bit of each and a link to the examiner page. Please, if you like them, become a subscriber. This job pays, but not much.
