    The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare

    ★★★

    I feel like it's only right to tell you that I didn't type: The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare: every time - that is a long title.


    Guy Ritchie's The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is a film that offers a thrilling start but stumbles toward the finish line.

    Starring Chevy Chase as the hapless Clark Griswold, the film captures the essence of chaotic family gatherings, blending slapstick humor with…

    Memento

    ★★★★

    Is this Christopher Nolan's best movie?

    Memento, directed by now-renowned filmmaker Christopher Nolan, is one of the most creative pieces of visual storytelling and a movie is the perfect medium for this type of art. This script would not translate the same inside of a book; this is a great movie.

    From the film's opening, I was constantly reminded of another movie with a story similar to Memento. In Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island, we follow an unreliable narrator and detective…
