\"LifeteenAnyone who teaches school knows that one way to connect with students is to talk movies with them. Lifeteen.com’s<\/a> weekly Catholic Movie Reviews podcast is a great way to keep up with the latest screen triumphs and travesties. Host Greg Iwinski does an effective job of balancing cinematic critique with a Catholic moral and aesthetic perspective. His insights are pithy intelligent, and useful. Recent reviews include The Dark Knight, Hellboy II, Hancock, Wall-E, Get Smart, The Love Guru<\/em>, and The Incredible Hulk<\/em>.<\/p>\n
