Welcome!

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new."
-Anton Ego, Ratatouille

With aspirations to become an arts/entertainment reporter or critic, I have started this website to post weekly reviews of the latest cinematic offerings from Hollywood and around the world. Currently studying Film and Journalism at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario, I hope my reviews here are the start to a long and fulfilling road down the path of reporting.

Here Comes the Bride All Dressed in Raunch

For eight weeks this spring, I am on an internship placement with Tribute, a Canadian entertainment magazine. I have grown up reading Tribute ever since I started going to the movies as a young child, and still do today. The magazine is still distributed at over half of the movie houses in Canada, mainly with the exceptions of cinemas under the Cineplex Entertainment banner (which has its own in-house magazine, Cineplex Magazine).
For this internship, I am writing stories on upcoming films and features for the magazine. In addition, I am also writing reviews for the website (www.tribute.ca). Due to my contract with Tribute, I am not allowed to write the same reviews on my blog that I have written for their website. Regardless, I will be posting links to my reviews featured on Tribute.ca here.
I had the privilege of seeing Bridesmaids, the new comedy starring Kristen Wiig, directed by Paul Feig and produced by Judd Apatow, earlier this week. I am posting a link to my review underneath. There is no star-rating system on the website, but I would give Bridesmaids a *** out of ****. Enjoy!
