The 33

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/16/2016 3:05 PM EDT
Mining is hard work and dangerous. In fact, on average, over 1000 miners die each year. When a cave in occurs, any survivors eventually die under the rock because companies find it hopeless and expensive to even try to rescue them. Luckily, in 2010, that wasn't the fate for 33 Chilean miners, as the world watched and hoped f... Read More

Steve Jobs

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/15/2016 5:08 PM EDT
To some, Steve Jobs (Michael Fassbender; X-Men: First Class) was brilliant. To others, he was an over-inflated ego, and, to a select few, he was the closest to God they think they will ever get. Whatever he was, there is no denying he was a visionary and most probably brilliant. While there have been a few movies and books a... Read More

Zoolander 2

(Sean Ferguson) 2/12/2016 10:02 AM EDT
RELAX, They've Done It!It's right time nowWell, now…It's hard to believe it's been 15 years since Ben Stiller gave us fashion Icon Derek Zoolander bursting onto the big screen in the 2001 classic Zoolander. Love it, or hate it, there seemed to be no in-between for those that saw it. For those that loved it, it became a classic with lines... Read More

How To Be Single

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/11/2016 10:02 AM EDT
Being single sucks. At least to most women that's the way it seems. We spend years trying to find the "perfect guy" only to realize he isn't so perfect. But the alternative of being alone is so scary to some that they will do almost anything just to be in a relationship.Not Alice (Dakota Johnson; Fifty Shades of ... Read More

Are You In Need of Some BBQ Leftovers? Head to Miracle!When it comes to watching television series, do you know what drives a person totally crazy? The Leftovers!!! Holy cow!

Spectre

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/10/2016 3:44 PM EDT
James Bond is one of the most iconic and enduring characters in cinematic history. Fans of Albert Broccoli's creation anticipate a new release and are anxious to own each film in the catalog when they become available for home theater. The twenty-fourth film in the franchise hits stores today, and it will, no doubt, be as popular ... Read More

Deadpool

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/8/2016 10:17 AM EDT
Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds; Green Lantern) is no super hero. In fact, he is probably the anti-super hero. He doesn't care about justice, unless it involves his own quest for revenge. He isn't interested in saving lives or bringing down the bad guys, again, unless it serves his purpose. He's funny, crass, sarcastic, sel... Read More

The Choice

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/5/2016 9:03 AM EDT
Never judge a book by its cover. Or in this case, never judge a movie by its trailer.Nicholas Sparks' latest feature film, The Choice, looked less than appealing based on the two minutes I saw online. The story held no interest for me and the main characters had no chemistry, or so it seemed. To be honest, I seriously thought abou... Read More

Hail, Caesar!

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/4/2016 3:19 PM EDT
Hail, Caesar! is a movie with a laundry list of greats and one glaring not so great. Great Writers/Directors Joel and Ethan Coen (No Country for Old Men), great actors from George Clooney (Up In the Air) and Josh Brolin (Men In Black 3) to Scarlett Johansson (Avengers) and Channing Tatum (Magic Mike XXL), and great set and costume design.&nbs...

Pride, Prejudice and Zombies

(Nathan M Rose) 2/4/2016 9:04 AM EDT
Author Seth Grahame-Smith's work came to the attention of modern movie-goers with the 2012 release Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, based upon his book of the same name. Now, in 2016, after a couple of years of being in production with several different directors and leading ladies, his New York Times bestselling novel Pride and Prejudice ... Read More
