Curt’s Corner is a periodic movie review column written by Curt Burbach of Mesa, Arizona.

 These reviews are written for the movie fan that has not yet seen the film. Hence, I will not spoil the plot by describing what actually happens in the film, unlike many other film critics.  I will, however, usually give a brief outline of the basic premise.
