If you want to read lengthy, drawn-out reviews of the movies in theaters now (or soon to be) then this isn't the blog you should be reading. Most of the posts from The Other Critic are short, sweet and to the point; that's how we roll here.

We also don't just focus on current movies. Let's face it, there are plenty of good movies that have been made, and sometimes viewers have a tendency to forget that there is more to life than movies in the theaters.

With all that said, please enjoy the short and concise, and sometimes opinionated reviews. If you don't like them, that's okay—we won't hold it against you.

First Impression Friday

Oh boy, oh boy have I got a few trailers I want to share with you!

First up is Law Abiding Citizen (Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler). Check out the trailer:

Holy cow, does this look like a good show. Reminds me of a combination of a few shows, like Taken with Liam Neeson. I got the chills watching this trailer.

Next up is Whiteout with Kate Beckinsale. Check out the trailer:


Nothing good EVER happens when the setting for a movie is Antarctica. Nothing. This looks good—maybe a bit predictable, but you never know. Might be worth watching in the theater. We'll see.

The last First Impression for today is Legion with Paul Bettany and Dennis Quaid. Check out the trailer:


From the trailer, I think this is what you'd get if you took Dawn of the Dead and smashed it together with Constantine, with a little Dogma sprinkled on top. Not sure how I feel about this one. It might end up being a rental. I do like Paul Bettany, though.

That's it for this installment of First Impression Friday.
