Almost to 50!

My goal when starting this blog back in December was to have 50 reviews and then submit my application to the Online Film Critics Society and try to get added to Rotten Tomatoes. I'm happy to say that as of January 12 I am 5 reviews away from 50!

I'm not sure what happens next but I'm actually kind of excited. I'm going to keep reviewing the biggest releases on Tuesday or Wednesday while spending the rest of the week picking up my back catalogue. Thanks to everyone who's been reading. Be sure to share the site with your friends. I thought about renaming the site but Tabula Imago is starting to grow on me. I hope it is for you too.

Thoughts on Man on Wire

While it probably is the best documentary of the year, I do think it's a little overhyped. The documentary plays more like a heist film, following a very specific time frame (pretty much just the day of the walk) and does a great job.

I wanted to know more about Petit though and what happened to him afterwords. I know that the film had a very narrow vision, I guess I was just hoping for more. I still gave it five stars because it is really good, it just wasn't what I was expecting. Not the film's fault for that.
