Quick Reviews (10/01/09)

Appaloosa (Impression: By The Book)

A somewhat safe effort by Ed Harris that translates into an okay (so-so, middling, etc.) western tale that's not worth watching unless you're a fan of the genre. Don't expect lots of gunfights; do expect lots of talking.

City of Ember (Impression: Fun)

A decently filmed adventure that is, in my opinion, too short. It's 90 minute runtime means that the story goes from beginning to climax too quickly. For the children that may be a good thing, but as for me I wouldn't mind sitting through more exposition just to enjoy the sights, story and Saoirse Ronan the actors.
