		<description><![CDATA[What are the keys to success? To many people, that’s like asking what the winning numbers are to the big lottery jackpot. There is the belief that there just might be a simple key to success, like turning the key to starting a car.

		<description><![CDATA[Many movies, particularly blockbuster action movies, are very simplistic in their portrayals and characterizations. Good guys vs bad guys — that’s it, that’s all you need to know, that’s all they’re telling you. That’s fine when it’s for entertainment, although even then my opinion is that more nuanced and complex characters make for more interesting [...]]]></description>

I’ll warn you that it’s got the same smooth tracking and motion that Blair Witch Project did — that means, [...]]]></description>

Most of us have seen the television crime dramas or movies where local law enforcement is investigating an incident when the black cars carrying the Feds arrive.  Guys in dark suits [...]]]></description>
