The Salesman
There is a reason Farhadi is an award-winning filmmaker and The Salesman is a shining example of his excellent work.
Almost Christmas
Almost Christmas will resonate with most families and while it is a heartwarming and sometimes sad movie, it is enjoyable nonetheless.
The Complete First Season
Vice Principals could have had so much going for it but it decided to go for cheap laughs, a tired plot, and characters that just don’t work.
John Wick
Director Chad Stahelski does a terrific job balancing plot with action and the stunt coordinators should be commended for some really great sequences.
The Space Between Us
If you are a hormonal, romantic, teenage girl with a crush on Butterfield, you will want to buy a ticket to this film.
Masterminds
Galifianakis is an interesting choice to play David because he portrays the real life bank robber as a somewhat naïve, goofy guy and yet the real David doesn’t seem to be that way at all.
Pinocchio
Pinocchio's nostalgia will make any fan relive the moment when they first saw the movie and it gives parents the opportunity to share the experience with their kids.
Queen of Katwe
Oyelowo does a wonderful job of bringing this real-life mentor to the big screen, adopting his speech patterns and mannerisms beautifully.
