Matt Zoller Seitz on Game of Thrones

Last updated on: October 2, 2012 at 6:09 pm By Jeffrey Overstreet

I don’t have HBO, so I’ll be waiting for Netflix or DVDs, but I’m so excited to see a celebrated fantasy epic being given a slow, patient miniseries treatment, with an impressive cast and a focus on character development instead of razzle-dazzle. Here’s how Matt Zoller Seitz describes it: (more…) Read more

Gratitude for Thoughtful Reviews of The Ale Boy’s Feast

Last updated on: October 2, 2012 at 6:13 pm By Jeffrey Overstreet

As a reader in a community of readers, I know that all of us have unique responses to the books we read. My opinion of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone or No Country for Old Men or Never Let Me Go will be different from yours, even if we both give them a thumbs’ up or a thumbs’ down. As a reviewer, I know that there is a huge difference between a review — a thoughtful examination of plot,... Read more

Of Gods and Men: One of those movies we need, but few people really want.

Last updated on: October 2, 2012 at 8:34 pm By Jeffrey Overstreet

I finally saw Of Gods and Men. The film received a rave review from my favorite film critic, Steven Greydanus, so it’s been high on my list of must-see priorities. I’m so glad I spent a Saturday afternoon and eight bucks on it. It’s a quiet, powerful film, profound and inspiring in its picture of faithful Christians.
