The Big Empty

looks like a fun ride...I just hope it comes to portland, totally has a David Lynch "type" vibe to it. I think Jon Favreau has enough good sense to not STAR in a bad movie(but he will cameo). I soo enjoy... Full review

Every "quirky" or "offbeat" movie cliche you can think of has been thrown together in 90 minutes of sheer drivel. Usually when I go to a comedy I expect to laugh on occasion, but in THE BIG EMPTY (appropriate title) I... Full review

Even though the dialogue is a little cheesy, this movie has a very unique plot. It ties many strange stories around one lost man and I must tip the hat to Favreau. Overall good and unique movie.... Full review
