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.

From Paris with Love

I confess, I am a John Travolta fan—but only when the movie is right. In From Paris with Love, Travolta's character is memorable to a fault. Jonathan Rhys Meyers plays a young agent who gets teamed up with a veteran agent who lives life on the edge and bends almost all the rules in the book. I love the the tagline "Two agents. One city. No merci."

Aside from some rough language (thanks to Mr. Travolta) and some violence (mostly shoot 'em up), this was a great flick. I do wished they would have carried the vase through the entire film, though. That would have been funny.
