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.

Edge of Darkness

So, Mel Gibson's back. In this gritty police detective drama, Mel is no spring chicken—like in the Lethal Weapon series—but don't hold that against him.

Edge of Darkness is gritty. It's dark and full of emotion. The action, in between the talking parts, was extreme and well done; very realistic and down to earth. I enjoyed the conspiracy theories intertwined with the story, very well done, in my opinion.

Gritty and dark, but very well done with an ending that leaves you with a small, warm fuzzy.
