reviews of movies we haven’t seen

For every culture in the world, there’s a greedy young asshole willing to exploit it to advance his Hollywood career. And with the number of Burning Man attendees now at 50,000, you had to figure there would be a “major motion picture” about life on the playa sooner or later.
But rather than go to the [...]

You are a pretty smart person, so you can already tell by the title and the look on Kevin Costner’s face there that this is a movie in which Kevin Costner plays a baseball player who goes around licking people’s balls to make them vote for Obama.
So what you need me for is not to [...]
