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.

The Maiden Heist

Interesting enough, I think this is one title that probably didn't get a lot of attention when it came out, but I have to tell you, I was pleasantly surprised with this one.

Christopher Walken, Morgan Freeman and William H. Macy play the role of three museum guards who over the years have come to be quite attached to certain pieces of art. Besides a bit of a Mr. Rodgers slow start, this was a great no-brainer of a movie. It reminded me a little of the whole Night at the Museum movie with Ben Stiller, minus most of the laughs and a little more suspense.

Worth renting, especially if you've seen almost everything else.
