Why I love the Nightmare Before Christmas
Growing up around the holidays I would have to say this was one of two films I found myself watching constantly. Especially around Halloween. It’s a timeless classic with a bit of a dark side to it. But why do I love it so much? Perhaps it’s because of the dark images. Maybe it was…

Divergent: My Take
Overall, I would have to say this film wasn’t all that bad. It wasn’t the best, but it could have been worse. This was more like a cliff notes version of the book for anyone who read the book, which is a good thing and a bad thing. Some of the stuff they cut out…
