Every Day (2010)


A New York City couple find themselves in romantic and family crises.

More melodrama than comedy, this movie is competently directed and lives through its excellent cast, but packs in a few problems too many and loses on credibility.

Maltin**1/2: "Well-cast film...Director Levine's screenplay offers no revelations, but it's reasonably credible and the performances are solid."

Katya Riabinkina


New Stuff: Cocco


I came across the Japanese singer-songwriter in the movie Kotoko in which she plays the title role; I thought I need to get one of her albums.

Moon (2009)



An astronaut has a quintessentially personal encounter toward the end of his three-year stint on the Moon, where he sends back to Earth parcels of a resource that has helped diminish our planet's power problems.

Gripping existential sci-fi drama with some references to the classics of the genre.

On second view: well worth an occasional rewatching.

Maltin ***: "A good example of how to make a resourceful movie and maintain viewer interest with minmal production components."
