Mile 22

Leonard Buccellato | Nov 19, 2018

If you are looking for solidly acted, and a polished looking, action thriller, Mile 22 should satisfy; besides it's always fun to watch some knuckles get bloodied, and shiny things go boom!

Blindspotting is enjoyable and entertaining while offering a sober look at some of the things facing our young, black male population, especially in urban settings. Serious moments peppered with humor and fun keep this film from being too bogged down.

Instant Family is a feel-good film during the holiday season and one that should be seen by everyone as it might just start a much-needed dialogue.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald

Allison Rose | Nov 15, 2018

While the magical aspects and visuals are appealing, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is clunky and awkward. Fans of the Potter Universe will no doubt go to see it but shouldn’t expect it to be as inviting as the first film.

A Private War

Allison Rose | Nov 14, 2018

A Private War is haunting but does the life of Marie Colvin justice. It couldn’t have been easy but it was an important life and the film pays homage to the brilliant woman behind the faces of wars and conflicts all over the world.
