Ted – Film Review
It might be hard to imagine but almost every adult comedy released during the past eighteen months or so have been raunchy, foul-mouthed duds that had me doubting my own sense of cinematic humor, until now.

After the end of the world news is […]

Sure there will always be those who either like or hate it, the basic division, but then, with Spring Awakening, you have audiences who love the music but find the play difficult to sit through, or there are […]
