Movie Of The Month - March

About this time every month, I give you my pick for the Movie Of The Month from the previous month. And now it's time for March. I will give you the pick for the best and worst movies last month, and an honorable mention with each, a runner-up. The movies must have been released to theaters in the Akron area to be eligible for this month. So here we go, the movies of the month - March!

The Best movie of the month - March

Brooklyn's Finest - Richard Gere, Don Cheadle and Ethan Hawke. This is a brilliantly crafted
police drama about three Brooklyn cops all at different stages of their career. The
unrelated stories are skillfully woven together. This is very heavy drama, and is
graphically violent at times as it takes you to the worst part of the New York City
drug trade. But this is really a good movie.

Honorable mention - March

Ghost Writer - Ewan McGregor and Pierce Brosnan. Drama about a ghost writer writing
the controversial biography of a fictional former Prime Minister of England. Very
well done and though provoking.

Worst movie of the month - March

Our Family Wedding - It is hard to put into words how horrible this movie really is. It's
a comedy I guess. Trouble is it's not funny. Or anything good. This was a big waste
of time, money and effort. Movies get no worse than this.

Honorable mention - March.

Repo Men - Man, again nothing here worth seeing. good cast, bad story, that on one really
cares about. Gross, violent and just bad.

Catch up with us next week, we'll have the April results. E-mail me with your thoughts. scott@wqmx.com
