Steven is a 32-year-old bilingual editor/(copy)writer from the Netherlands who indulges in the odd spot of creative writing. Bit of a pop culture junkie.Currently listing articles 12-1:
-
Book Review: I Am Not Myself These Days by Josh Kilmer-Purcell— A well-written memoir that lets you experience the life of a drunken drag queen vicariously.
-
TV Review: Torchwood— Plenty of wood in Torchwood, in every sense of the word. But give it a chance!
-
Book Review: Fish: A Memoir of a Boy in a Man's Prison by T. J. Parsell— In this fascinating memoir, Parsell shows there is a lot more to prison rape than 'dropping the soap'.
-
Movie Review: Barnyard— Udderly misguided animated movie that needs a script polish. (Gosh, I bet I am the first one making that 'udder' pun.)
-
Movie Review: Untraceable— Unbelievable but not unlikeable. Gory thrills with echoes of Saw.
-
Movie Review: Juno— A game cast will win you over in a sharp if slightly artificial story about a cheerfully knocked up girl.
-
Movie Review: Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem— The sci-fi horror that is short on runtime and big on running. Just don't step in the plotholes!
-
TV Review: Terminator - The Sarah Connor Chronicles— Rowdy robots and time-travel shenanigans. Paradox anyone? Or maybe some aspirin?
-
Nintendo DS Review: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice for All— It is good to be Wright: the defense attorney who uncovers the truth in wacky murder cases.
-
Movie Review: Sweeney Todd - the Demon Barber of Fleet Street— Beware the meat pies and heed the razors, lyrical slaughter is afoot!
-
Movie Review: The Kite Runner— More than just an "Oprah Book Club" selection of a movie...
-
Movie Review: Shutter— It's an Asian horror movie, so it must contain a creepy girl.
