Keshara on Film: “42” intriguing biopic

It takes a great man with several amazing talents to push through the hatred of so many other men and still fuel the love he has for baseball. I watched the trailer for “42” last week, unaware of what it was exactly, having neglected my education of baseball history up until this part of my […]

Students willing to give sequels chance, say sequels don’t live up to originals

As long as the cast stays consistent and the entertainment keeps on coming, audiences will always want more of a good thing where movies are concerned. Sequels are intended to continue a good story on a new front. They are the continuation of familiarity with new aspects, jokes and adventures. Lucero Valencia, a freshman general […]

Keshara on Film: ‘The Host proves to be entertaining, well-filmed adventure

One thing I love about a good story is when humanity is at its most vulnerable and weakest points.  “The Host” does just that. This movie has been highly anticipated for a while because of its popularity as a book. Now, I love books with all my heart, and I think I actually owned this […]

Keshara on Film: ‘The Incredible Burt Wonderstone’ not incredibly funny

The humor in “The Incredible Burt Wonderstone” is even less sufficient than I anticipated and doesn’t quite meet my standards of hilarity.

Maybe it would prove itself to me, Jim Carrey would not play a tacky character, and I […]

Keshara on Film: Trailers make March month to look forward to

Sometimes the previews before the film are just as worthy of watch time as the film itself. When I see a movie, I’m always early so I absolutely do not miss the previews. If you have ever been in a movie theater with me at the time a trailer starts, you know that I become […]

Zombie boy finds unlikely life in ‘Warm Bodies’

“Warm Bodies” has presented the world with a lovely, unconventional saga of forbidden love and zombies. Though it is an uncommon story, its main theme of inner conflict with oneself is nothing new. The challenges of a person’s surroundings and circumstances when it comes to fighting for love and freedom from emotional and societal chaos […]

‘Hansel & Gretel’ not average classic tale

“Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters” is a fine example of a not-so-normal twist on a grimly classic tale. Not to say that the twist was horrible, but the movie as a whole was not far off from such. That being said, I loved it. The fairytale nature of the story still held, despite the changes and mostly bad script-writing. […]
