Pitch Perfect 3
The movie does start off slow but gains momentum throughout and ends on a high note. There are also a few laughs for the whole family to enjoy.
The Greatest Showman
From the cast to the costumes to the music, The Greatest Showman has so much to offer and with a PG rating, it’s the perfect movie to take the whole family to this holiday season.
Boston
Dunham does a wonderful job of including so much of the human interest angle into Boston, infusing it with grit and heart. His presentation and delivery hold the viewer’s attention even if they are a novice to the world of running and Marathons.
Stronger
Stronger isn't a movie about the events of April 2013 and how it affected Boston and the United States. Rather, it is about how one sunny afternoon affected a simple man, his girlfriend, and his family.
Victoria & Abdul
I wonder if there is anything Dench can’t do. Any project she is tied to is going to have a certain level of quality befitting her acting abilities and Victoria and Abdul is no exception.
Men in Black Trilogy
This 4K UHD release is the best possible versions of The Men in Black Trilogy and for any fan of the series, this is one set you don't want to miss out on!
Fuller House: The Complete Second Season
Fuller House is purely a walk down memory lane for those of us who watched and loved the original and offers a sense of nostalgia for cheesy laugh tracks and corny “dad” jokes.
Home Again
Coming to Blu-ray and DVD for the holidays, Home Again is a good choice for anyone who is a fan of the Rom-Com genre.
The Post
Question: What do you get when you put Streep and Tom Hanks together with Director Steven Spielberg? Answer: A movie making a “dream team” of course.
