Doug Reviews: Beck – Raleigh, NC – July 23, 2014
Beck plays his latest, “Blue Moon,” in Raleigh, NC
I was lucky enough to see Beck when he rolled through Raleigh two weeks ago on his tour supporting his latest album, Morning Phase. I’d never seen him live before, so I was pretty excited. Of course, my only fear was that the show would end up being an all-acoustic set or something considering that Morning Phase is sort of like the spiritual sequel to 2002’s Sea Change. Both the albums are great, but when I’m seeing Beck for the first time, I want to see Beck. Thankfully, he did not disappoint. Continue reading

Can’t say enough about this one, but we tried in our latest video review. Take a look! Continue reading
Doug Reviews: Guardians of the Galaxy
There’s no doubt that Marvel Studios has another great franchise on their hands with Guardians of the Galaxy. The Guardians themselves are extremely likable and the film is tons of fun. However, some of the elements around them keep the film from being king of the Marvel hill. Continue reading
Doug Reviews: Get on Up
James Brown was really not a nice guy, but he was entertaining as hell. That’s what I took away from Director Tate Taylor’s biopic, Get on Up, featuring a star-making turn by Chadwick Boseman as Brown. Continue reading
Episode 44: Lucy, A Most Wanted Man, Wish I Was Here, and the Rest
In Episode 44, Doug and Dirty A discuss four disappointments and one of the year’s best. We’ll let you guess which is which, but here’s a hint, the best one has Philip Seymour Hoffman in it. Continue reading
Doug Reviews: Wish I was Here
It’s easy to hate on Writer-Director Zach Braff’s latest film, Wish I was Here. In the years since his feature directorial debut, Garden State, there’s been a massive backlash against that film and then there was the whole Kickstarter page to help fund this latest one. I wish I could say that the naysayers were wrong, but Braff’s latest has good intentions, but it’s just not a very good movie. Continue reading
Doug Reviews: A Most Wanted Man
A Most Wanted Man made me angry. Don’t get me wrong, Director Anton Corbijn’s adaptation of John le Carré’s novel of the same name is a fantastic film, but it’s also the final film Philip Seymour Hoffman completed before his death of a drug overdose last year. I’m angry that we won’t see him lead another film. Continue reading
Doug Reviews: Lucy
Well, my old nemesis Luc Besson is at it again. This time, he brings us Lucy, a film that is based on a scientific myth and makes little to no sense from that point forward. Continue reading
