Only The Brave

Allison Rose | Oct 19, 2017

Step is a realistic look at life as a teenage girl in inner-city Baltimore and the challenges they face. It is heartwarming and uplifting and makes you root for the Lethal Ladies from start to finish.

American Gods Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

American Gods: The Complete First Season

Nathan M Rose | Oct 16, 2017

While American Gods is an amazing show, it is extremely high-brow/concept show that you have to pay very close attention to or you will be lost. If you have never seen the show I suggest at least giving the first two to three episodes a try. You will not be disappointed.

Spider-Man: Homecoming

Jennifer Broderick | Oct 16, 2017

Spider-Man: Homecoming is a new spin on the Spider-Man story and one that needed to be told. While it took a bit to process that we wouldn’t see some of the traditional elements of the original story in this version, the writers and directors did an amazing job re-creating Spider-man for the Millennial generation.

Kick-Ass

Allison Rose | Oct 11, 2017

Kick-Ass is a mish-mosh of ideas that somehow comes together and almost completely works. It’s got a good cast and some fun scenes which helps the viewer get immersed in the story. It’s worth watching if for no other reason than simply to bring out the inner superhero in all of us.

Reign: The Complete Fourth Season

Jennifer Broderick | Oct 10, 2017

Even though there is a lot of wonderful embellishment in the series, for a generation whose only reality is technology and the dystopian future world, Reign will give them a sense of history – with enough intrigue that maybe- just maybe- we can make some of the tech babies of the Millennial generation interested in history.
