South Of Pico (2007) Snail’s Pace Productions/Image Entertainment Directed by Ernst Gossner Written by Ernst Gossner and Richard Marcus Starring: Kip Pardue, Gina Torres, Henry Simmons Score: Technical: 95, Story: 80, Acting: 90, Total: 88 I was quite surprised. I didn’t like “Crash” and I heard comparisons between this movie and “Crash”, but “South Of Pico” is clearly a superior film. Set in a 12-hour period where five lives deal with periods of uncertainty, quiet desperation, inner demons, and in the end intersect on a fateful street at a tragic event. Shot really well, the lighting, even indoors, is immediately reminiscent of an almost blisteringly-hot day in LA, which seems  [ Read More ]

Doomsday essentially reminds us moviegoers about other post-apocalyptic movies from the past that are great, while delivering us a sub-par movie.
