Shoot the Glass

Here at Shoot the Glass, you’ll find a variation of movie reviews and other notes and observations. To stop myself from rambling on about any movie I see (there are lots of them), I have chosen a couple of “lists”, like the IMDb Top 250 and the AFI Top 100, and every time I watch a movie on any of the lists, I will write a review on that movie (and tick it off the list).

I thrive on feedback, so if you have something to say, please feel free to comment. I also have a ratings feature where you can rate any movie I’ve reviewed. I’m very interested to find out how other film fanatics like the movies I write about, so please do rate ay you’ve seen.

I suggest you start by reading my explanation to the ratings to get a better frame of reference for my reviews.

Asides
  • I’m back from my vacation now (best.week.ever) and have some catchin up to do. In August, I will write those last IMDb250 reviews that I didn’t get to in July, and then I’ll get back to work on my Resolutions and the Alphabet Project.
