Criminial

Maureen Buccellato | Jul 28, 2016

Jericho Stewart (Kevin Costner; Dances with Wolves) is a maximum-security criminal who, because of a traumatic brain injury as a child, can't reason between right and wrong and feels no emotions.

Hardcore Henry

Nathan M Rose | Jul 26, 2016

Hardcore Henry is Crank for a new generation!

I Am Wrath

Allison Rose | Jul 26, 2016

I Am Wrath had some great potential but needed more details and fuller script to allow these talented actors to do what they do best.

Sing Street

Sean Ferguson | Jul 26, 2016

The Sing Street soundtrack is fantastic. It holds classics like Duran Duran’s “Rio”, Hall & Oates “Maneater”, The Cure’s “In Between Days”, and M’s “Pop Music”! along with tracks that were inspired by these very songs!

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Nathan M Rose | Jul 19, 2016

While so many critics panned this film, I personally think Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is one of the best superhero films ever made. It is more geared towards an adult audience than the Marvel Cinematic Universe offers.

Ghostbusters

Allison Rose | Jul 14, 2016

McCarthy isn’t funny and her voice is annoyingly nasal. Wiig is slightly better but mostly uninspired. Jones adds a few moments of hilarity and a streetwise toughness that works most of the time, but the real star is McKinnon.

Allison Rose | Jul 13, 2016

Well told, nicely paced, and beautifully acted, The Infiltrator, left me craving more at the end.

Allegiant

Nathan M Rose | Jul 12, 2016

Lionsgate truly pushed the envelope with this release of Allegiant creating I dare say one of the best audio mixes I have heard to date on a 4K disc.

Green Room

Allison Rose | Jul 11, 2016

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the tragic, unexpected passing of Anton Yelchin. If Green Room is any indication of what is to come, he was a huge talent with a bright future ahead of him.

Eddie the Eagle

Allison Rose | Jul 11, 2016

Despite its flaws, Eddie the Eagle boasts a strong cast, good script and, like Eddie himself, a lot of heart. Watch it at least once. You won't regret it.
