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 Lovely Bones

For some reason, I only briefly recall the trailer for this show. Not sure why, though.

I'm not going to beat around the bush. I expected more from Peter Jackson (King Kong, The Lord of the Rings trilogy). While this was a good movie, it wasn't what I have come to expect from Mr. Jackson. The story was good, as well as the acting. I did enjoy the way that "the in between" was portrayed. The ending—let's just say I wanted more closure than I got.

Also, after watching this, I am never going to let my kids walk home from school. Ever.
