Split
Jennifer Broderick | Apr 21, 2017
Although the plot itself (a mentally ill man kidnapping girls) has been done before and isn’t that much of an engaging storyline, the film succeeds because of McAvoy’s extraordinary acting skills.

Sand Castle
Allison Rose | Apr 20, 2017
While the material isn’t necessarily anything new or earth-shattering – we all know from the news the struggles out troops have faced overseas – I thought the movie presented a slightly more interesting view of what when on there.

Donnie Darko (4-Disc Limited Edition)
Leonard Buccellato | Apr 18, 2017
If you are a fan of Donnie Darko you should buy this boxed set and if you’ve never seen this movie before, you need to buy it; you owe it to yourself to watch it multiple times and become obsessed, like the rest of us!

Fate of The Furious
Allison Rose | Apr 13, 2017
The series has a loyal fan base and if the crowds for the previous screenings are any indications this movie will do very well at the box office. With movies nine and ten already announced, it looks like we will be seeing a lot more of Dom and company in the future.

The Complete Seventh Season
Sean Ferguson | Apr 12, 2017
For me, season 7 was my favorite season (of Archer) so far. I love the direction they took the series in and while it sets up what could be an incredibly creative season 8….Season 7 was just a ton fun!

Hidden Figures
Jennifer Broderick | Apr 12, 2017
Hidden Figures is the movie everyone should watch. It educates us and entertains us at the same time. It puts the civil rights movement and segregation in a perspective that most of us have only read about in history books.

Allison Rose | Apr 11, 2017
Audiences seem to enjoy Silicon Valley and with the way the show is going, I don’t see that waning anytime soon.

Allison Rose | Apr 11, 2017
The season finale is a shocker, with series regulars on the outs and new people ending up being in.

War on Everyone
Allison Rose | Apr 10, 2017
Skarsgard and Pena have great timing and an easy rapport that make the plot just a little more interesting.
