The summer 2012 season of “

Tonight’s episode of “Reel Faith,” is the season finale, and partly for that reason this week I attended an almost unprecedented four screenings: the latest
Twilight,
Happy Feet Two,
Arthur Christmas and
The Muppets. Another reason for the heavy screenings was for the sake of my Friday morning radio shows (since of course I’ll be off next week.

Contagion may not be everyone’s ideal date movie, but I’m married to an RN who prefers a good medical thriller to a trite chick flick. Suz was impressed with the technical realism of
Contagion. I was impressed too. Here’s my 30-second take.

Neither of the two reviews posting today is for a newly opening movie, but with the summer winding down, vacation behind me and “Reel Faith”’s summer season ending with
next week’s finale (
edit: not tonight’s finale; preempted for World Youth Day), I’m trying to catch up. After
Cowboys & Aliens and
Crazy, Stupid, Love, movies I’ve screened that I’d like to write about including today’s
Fright Night as well as
The Help,
30 Seconds or Less and even
The Smurfs.

Now that “Reel Faith” is back in production, I have to face the sad truth that I no longer have the time to invest writing 30-second reviews in verse. We’re still doing 30-second reviews, but they’re more straightforward now. Here are the latest from both David and myself, including
Green Lantern,
Mr. Popper’s Penguins,
Super 8 and
Tree of Life.

Okay, technically that’s misleading since it isn’t really
my Union suit: I rented this Yankee soldier uniform from the helpful folks at the
Party Stop & Costume Corner in Westfield, NJ for this 30-second review of the Civil War-era film
The Conspirator. I really dug the film, and I had a
lot of fun doing this review. Enjoy!

Paying tribute to
Winter’s Bone in a 30-second rhyming review presented some challenges. I decided to riff on one of the bluegrass songs in the film, although without instruments (and with only 30 seconds to get it out) I had to make some adjustments to the rhythm and melody.
