F This Movie! - Spider-Man 3

Patrick and Adam Riske do whatever a spider can. And a Sandman. And a Venom. And a Green Goblin. And a Mr. Freeze. Probably a Ninja Turtle, too.

Review: The Great Gatsby

by Adam Riske

Find a nice quiet room. Turn on four stereos, each playing different styles of music. Now invite over 500 people who have been drinking all day and doing speed all night. Pick the most boring person of the bunch and ask them to read you The Great Gatsby. This, my friends, is what the first 30 minutes of Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby feels like. I wanted an ejector seat. It felt like Vietnam. Then a miracle happens. The movie settles down and while never becoming good, it ceases to be terrible.
