Fist Fight

Allison Rose | May 30, 2017

While not a unique concept, the movie has some great lines and laugh out loud moments. I promise you, it picks up 30 minutes before the end of the movie and slides into home plate for a home run of an ending.

Logan

Allison Rose | May 30, 2017

It is a shame that we finally get to see “The Wolverine” as he was intended to be, but struggling with his powers since his time has finally come...it would have been nice to see one more film with Hugh Jackman in his full glory as Wolverine (and an R rating) before getting to this story.

Pirates of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

Judith Raymer | May 25, 2017

I recommend enduring the lengthy credit roll as there is a surprise with which you will be rewarded! That said, two more mentions...Sir Paul McCartney appears ever so briefly as Jack’s Uncle Jack. Brief, but brilliant. Golshifteh Farahani is breathtaking.

Baywatch

Judith Raymer | May 24, 2017

In addition to the sentimental sap, the upending uproar, and...hot bodies, this film packs some seriously, outrageously, over the top, spectacular action. Sure, it’s ridiculous. Isn’t most action these days? It’s also engaging, exhilarating, all-encompassing action.

Get Out

Nathan M Rose | May 23, 2017

It was with this plot that comedian-actor, Jordan Peele (Keanu), launched his directorial debut into a film, and not just any film but one that reflects the underlying current of racism in our society as well as provides a riveting horror tale.

Girls: The Complete Sixth Season

Allison Rose | May 22, 2017

There is a reason Girls is an awarding winning show and Season Six is holding to the tradition of excellent writing and acting. The season is well thought out and gripping and gives the audience some of that “personal growth” we have been wanting from these characters.

Everything, Everything

Judith Raymer | May 18, 2017

An innocence absent of complete naivete on the part of Maddy and Olly is guided by exceptional supporting performances and a synergy amongst the extended cast in Everything, Everything

Wonder Woman Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Wonder Woman Commemorative Edition

Nathan M Rose | May 16, 2017

The Blu-ray is presented in 16:9 anaphoric widescreen that is a very nice bump over the originally released DVD version and the soundtrack really packs a punch on the action scenes.

Unforgiven

Allison Rose | May 16, 2017

Unforgiven brought Eastwood to a whole new level of filmmaking and changed the concept of the old westerns. Munny is a flawed yet human character anyone can relate to and Hackman’s performance is nuanced.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter

Allison Rose | May 16, 2017

Mila Jovovich is impressive and her battle skills are on point and apparently, she did her own stunts, which is amazing. She commands attention in this film and not just because she is the lead. She has a presence as Alice that is undeniable.
