• Genre Grandeur Reviews (Coming of Age Movies) -12  Thanks again to Justine for choosing such a great and diverse Genre for February

 

In addition to Genre Grandeur, I added a new feature recently called Genre Guesstimation where I review other movies in the monthly GG in order to see whether I think they deserve to be part of my favorites in the given genre!

• Genre Guesstimation Reviews – 8 (1 Genre Grandeur Worthy)

 

Thanks to all my loyal followers for helping make this all happen!

BTW,  Genre Grandeur for March (chosen by Anna) will be Latin Directed movies, so send me your review of your favorite Latin Directed movie to latin@movierob.net before 25th Mar in order to take part!   Try to think out of the box!

Looking forward to seeing what you all have in mind!

Also, I’d like to remind everyone about my upcoming Meathead March blogathon which will start tomorrow devoted to all Rob Reiner directed movies (there are 17 of them).

There is still time to sign up and get me your last minute reviews. Email me if you wanna get on board.

 

-Rob
