weyes' wisdom of the day - 8/1/08

movie previews are often misleading. sideways was billed as an uproarious comedy, when, in this reviwer's opinion, it was quite sad. the big kahuna, one of my favorite movies of all time, was portrayed as a hilarious movie with a crowd of people in it when it was a serious drama with only 3 characters who had speaking parts. while reviews give a better idea of what a movie is about, it may give away important details or plot points without spoiler alerts. asking trusted friends is the most reliable way to find out what a movie really is all about without ruining it

.

tune in tomorrow.
