UPDATE! -- New and improved Critic's Corner Review has arrived!

The Critic's Corner movie review blog has been on a recent hiatus over the past month or so due to my transitioning into a new job.

Now that I'm no longer a full-time reporter of the Lake County Leader and not located in the Polson area anymore, the Critic's Corner reviews will no longer be directly affiliated with Polson Theaters Inc or solely focused on those films being shown in Polson and Ronan.

That was a great time for the Corner, and I thank the Leader and Polson Theaters for their joint cooperation in making that happen.But now we're moving on. This is the new Corner blog site which promises to be better and bolder, with added features such as a weekly rental review of either a new release DVD or an under the radar classic on DVD.

Plus as all the movies I see will now be coming purely out of my own pocket, I will be giving moviegoing readers the full skinny on whether it's worth your money or to skip it, and I won't be sitting through any crappy movies that are forcastibly bad from the get-go just to have a blog review for that evening.Only the best will make the cut and no holds barred whatsoever-- the Corner is getting serious here people, and a lot more fun.

So hold onto your hats ... my first review will be of Judd Apatow's 3rd and most apparently complex film, "Funny People" -- starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen.

Other anticipated upcoming reviews may include: "Extract", "Public Enemies", "The Hurt Locker", "District 9", "The Collector", "Bruno", "Away We Go", and "Let the Right One In."You can even now vote on which you would most like to get the Critic's take on (following "Funny People") for the next Corner review by clicking your selection on the poll at right.

Thanks for your patience, thanks for reading, and happy movie-watching!
