Lady Bird
Gerwig hits the nail on the head for her first solo directorial project. There are no odd camera angles or superfluous shots. As the writer, her insight into this mother daughter relationship is raw and gritty and makes one wonder how much comes from her own life.

Thor: Ragnarok
The latest Thor movie does its best to reinvent itself from the serious superhero, “save the world” usual fare into more of a humorous, Guardians of the Galaxy kind of way but sadly it just doesn’t mesh well with what we know of the series.
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Three Billboards wasn’t as gut-wrenching as I originally thought it would be but it was still emotional. Phenomenally acted it reminds us that actions have consequences and not just for ourselves.
Lady and The Tramp
A classic fairytale story for all ages, Lady and The Tramp shows us that love is infinite and your capacity for love only grows as you find more things, people, and pets to love.
Coco
Coco is a unique film both bright in color and bright in character. So many lessons learned along the way, Coco is a wonderful family adventure that will grace your digital collection in so many ways.
Murder on the Orient Express
The cast of this remake is veritable who’s who of Hollywood elite. Unfortunately, this script doesn’t give any of them a meaty enough part to sink their teeth into. While terrific as usual, none of then deliver an Oscar-worthy performance.
Thor: Ragnarok
Thor Ragnarok is one of the best Avenger movies, to date. It is funny and serious at the same time. The casting is spot on and the continuity between dialogue and acting is smooth and graceful.
Lady And The Tramp Signature Collection
If you are a Disney fan or have little ones at home this is a purchase you certainly want to make. Disney movies are always a treat and this older one certainly stands the test of time and remains an enjoyable story told through the eyes of some adorable dogs.
Coco
Already a Golden Globe winner for Best Motion Picture – Animated and a near shoe-in for the Oscar this year, Coco offers so much that it really is a complete movie for both children and adults to enjoy.
Darkest Hour
Darkest Hour offers a look into a very specific and limited time frame in Churchill’s reign. The tumultuous issues would have given any politician cause for concern and pause but the movie depicts Churchill as a rather eccentric yet brilliant man.
