http://www.cinemaherald.com/ Welcome to "Cinema Herald". My aim is to bring movie reviews to a somewhat different level. I don't know about you guys but I'm sick and tired of Critics who dissect a movie to bits. Who cares about all that deep stuff, sometimes you just want to know if you'll be entertained or not. Is it worth me spending $10? Now don't get me wrong, sometimes when we watch a movie, it does require us to put on our thinking caps and I'll do that from time to time depending on the film I review but for the most part, I just want to know if I'm going to have a laugh or a cry or even crap my pants - in other words, will it take my mind off the fact that I'm broke and my rent is due for a few hours? Movies are a public service...they are to help us escape for a few hours and forget that we're overworked and under paid. en Sat, 20 Nov 2010 16:28:00 GMT Sat, 20 Nov 2010 16:28:00 GMT info@cinemaherald.com info@cinemaherald.com http://www.cinemaherald.com/images/herald12.jpg http://www.cinemaherald.com/ http://www.cinemaherald.com/on-hiatus-will-return-soon/ Hello Orble, I'm on hiatus for the moment dealing morning sickness and other writing commitments that require my immediate attention.
