All my life I've been passionate about movies. I find them to be such an all-involving art form, showing not only sights otherwise foreign to me but worlds, and encompassing so many different skills working together in cohesion - writing, music, lyricism, art form, acting, and performance. The best movies are capable of teaching and enlightening; of making us better people. It is a sublime human creation, which for me is so much more than mere entertainment or hobby.

Ferguson On Films - Movie Review Resource Launches
Hi, I am Greg Ferguson and I love movies.
So much so that I will tell you what I like about them and what I love to hate about them. Welcome to Ferguson On Films, where I will review all types of movies from rentals to first-run showings.
If you have an opinion on my opinions, then please share by clicking on the comment section below each post and add your commentary.
About me, your movie critic:
I was born on the 13th of June, 1981, in Moncton, NB, Canada.
The first movie I recall ever seeing is Benji The Hunted (1987), which I didn't even stay long enough at the theatre to see all the way through (Dad chose the movie, and I was duly bored and demanded to leave, despite its running length being merely 88min).
That experience didn't disuade me from gravitating toward other titles, and as I grew older I was attracted to horror and action movies (I rented nearly every Schwarzenegger title from my local Video Tech outlet, although I was disheartened to discover that I couldn't find Hercules In New York (1970)).
Approaching my senior year in high school, I began to take an interest in more adult fare. I found it particularly odd, although empowering, for instance, that at the age of 16 I was brazen enough to attend Oscar And Lucinda (1997) all by myself.
At about the same time, I was beginning to take an avid notice of English literature, and when Hamlet provided me with my first portal into the literary world of human drama, symbolism, metaphor, and Great Danes, I sought out the Kenneth Brannagh film version (1996), which totally bowled me over.
As it happened, I ended up majoring in English at Mount Allison University with minors in Philosophy and Women's Studies, which should tell you that I have an acute interest in the human condition as expressed imaginatively and creatively, with a propensity for deep thought which includes a careful consideration of marginalized peoples.
Of course, I find this all very fun, so don't let my wordiness fool you. I'm a fun guy too!

With that said, I hope you have gotten to know me a little better than when you began.
