Power Rangers
People who were kids of the 90s will rush to the theater for the nostalgia of one of their favorite television shows...for many others who didn’t grow up with it, it has no sense of connection to them.
Assassins Creed
With a terrific cast full of Oscar nominees and winners, I had pretty high expectations...Fassbender is pretty tough as Cal...Irons always makes for a convincing bad guy.
Sing
Sing reminds of why Illumination Studios is one of the best in the field, giving Disney and Pixar a run for their money.
Kong: Skull Island
I suspect we will have two factions – the 2005 version of King Kong fans and the Skull Island King Kong version fans. Regardless, the movie is entertaining and has a lot going for it.
Shut In
For all its flaws, if you like thrillers and need a distraction to go along with some popcorn on a cold and rainy night, Shut In is a viable option.
Moana
If you love Disney animated movies, or if you have small children at home...heck, even if you don't meet either category, this is a movie you'll want to own.
Rules Don't Apply
While the film has it’s flaws, it has a cast that makes up for many them. It also has an underlying sweet story that will warm your heart and make you walk away with a smile on your face.
Get Out
Peele has a solid script and a knack for storytelling in an appealing way which makes Get Out is more enjoyable than many of the other suspense/thriller/horror movies being made today.
