Contagion

Contagion

By Fr. Ernest Daly on September 22, 2011

A movie that makes you real­ize how frag­ile life is. When a new, deadly virus breaks in Hong Kong it quickly spreads through­out the world, cre­at­ing tragedy and chaos. This is a fic­tional film, but many dis­ease experts say it does depict a real pos­si­bil­ity. The movie high­lights the plight of one fam­ily which is […]

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber: Will it last?

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber: Will it last?

By Fr. Ernest Daly on September 22, 2011

They’ve been an item for about six months now. Teen hearthrobs Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber seem like an almost ideal cou­ple. They share the same val­ues. They both have suc­cess­ful careers. They are both beau­ti­ful. And it is obvi­ous that they are both very attracted to each other. So will it last? That depends […]

7 Days In Utopia

7 Days In Utopia

By Fr. Ernest Daly on September 7, 2011

Actor Robert Duvall has pro­duced a beau­ti­ful movie about rela­tion­ships and find­ing peace in our lives. He presents a trou­bled young golfer who is haunted by his father’s impos­si­ble demands for per­fec­tion and suc­cess. The young man breaks under the pres­sure and tries to run away from golf and his father: prob­a­bly a good idea […]

Sarah’s Key

Sarah’s Key

By Fr. Ernest Daly on August 31, 2011

An extremely beau­ti­ful but extremely sad movie. It tells the story of a lit­tle Jew­ish girl who escapes depor­ta­tion to the Nazi exter­mi­na­tion camps in order to come back and  res­cue her lit­tle brother. The story is told by a woman reporter who dis­cov­ers a strange link to the story of this lit­tle girl. The […]

The Smurfs

The Smurfs

By Fr. Ernest Daly on August 25, 2011

Fan­tas­tic movie for it’s fam­ily val­ues and light-​​​​hearted fun, but it is almost ruined by a bit of gross humor in a scene about the cat cough­ing up some traces of the Smurfs for the bad guy. The scene is totally unnec­es­sary, or could have been done in another way. I. See the movie, though. […]

The Tree of Life

The Tree of Life

By Fr. Ernest Daly on June 20, 2011

This is an exper­i­men­tal film that tries to por­tray a Chris­t­ian mes­sage in a poetic and dif­fer­ent way, but is way too long and com­pli­cated. Take out the long part about the cre­ation of the uni­verse. Leave in the human drama: just that part alone would have made a great movie and com­mu­ni­cated the message […]

Super 8

Super 8

By Fr. Ernest Daly on June 15, 2011

Good movie. I find almost all sci-​​​​fi movies corny, but the human drama in this movie is pos­i­tive, fun, and inter­est­ing.  And , truth be told, the sci-​​​​fi ele­ment does add thrills and adven­ture, even if it is totally unbe­liev­able. Regard­ing the human drama, it presents the prob­lems of sad­ness about death in a family, […]

What If…

What If…

By Fr. Ernest Daly on September 17, 2010

This movie is one of the few Chris­t­ian movies that I’ve seen that does not fall into the “corny” category.

Lady Gaga: Fame Monster

By Alex Kubik on September 7, 2010

Every decade or two, a con­tro­ver­sial fig­ure emerges on the music scene. An artist who is com­pletely ded­i­cated to push­ing the extreme lim­its of what soci­ety can han­dle, both musi­cally and visu­ally. Lady Gaga is with­out ques­tion this artist today.
