    Red Lights (Cortés)

    New film from the director of the overlooked Buried.

    First half or so looks excellent, then it gets a bit hammy and silly with De Niro's character. Looks interestingly lit, at least.

    I rather liked Buried, so I'm looking forward to this. Like the cast (always good to see Cillian Murphy in a lead role). Reception at Sundance was mixed, but I think I'll at least enjoy it.

    That looks terrible. Then again, I thought Buried was rightfully overlooked.

    Great rating on Little Caesar! I love those old-school gangster flicks. I went on quite a kick of them for a while last year. Found some new favorites.

    I do find it hard, though, to hear Edward G. Robinson talk and not laugh, because all I hear is Chief Wiggum.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?
