The Double


Two Eisenbergs are not better than one in this dull Dostoyevsky depiction.  Feels like a stage-play directed by Gilliam’s corpse and populated by un-empathetic caricatures of uninteresting people.  Ayoade achieves a singular vision. Unfortunately, it isn’t one worth seeing.  Perhaps film was intended as the double for its impressive Enemy.

Capitalism: A Love Story

One Moore crockumentary from the Democratic Limbaugh. This time he makes some legitimate points but again manages to brutally undercut his integrity with shameless editorial manipulation and dependence on emotional pleas. Further hurt by self-indulgent begging for billions and CEO arrest scenes. And the presence of a legitimate actor… Inconceivable!

Toy Story 3

One of Pixar’s best and a satisfying follow-up to an overrated sequel. Phenomenal opening reintroduces characters and plays perfectly into emotional yet funny thrill ride. A few moments may be a bit too horrifying or emotionally disturbing for kids, but these instances are too perfect to omit. Es muy excelente.
