Hi, I'm Brendan and I write about movies. I have primarily written for my personal review site The Metaplex. In recent years I have taken a sabbatical from writing full time to focus on my career (I’m an Insurance Agent), but I have enjoyed writing freelance reviews and editorials for RogerEbert.com, Keeping-It-Reel.com, HollywoodChicago.com, and LiveForFilm.com.
