We Are Your Friends
Paul Kates | Jan 11, 2016
"Are we ever gonna be better than this?", Cole screams from the mic. Well, the truth is, probably not. We are Your Friends isn't going to be up for any of the major awards this season, but like so many films made in this genre, it does have the feel-good factor.

The Transporter: Refueled
Allison Rose | Jan 06, 2016
Sadly, sitting through Transporter: Refueled to the end was a painful experience. The story is boring, the acting is mediocre for the most part, and the fight scenes are ridiculously unrealistic.

The Green Inferno
Leonard Buccellato | Jan 05, 2016
The Green Inferno has many valid points to make, not least of which, about the nature of arm-chair protesters and how their need to “Trend” is more important than the subjects about which they are protesting about.

Concussion
Allison Rose | Dec 24, 2015
Will Smith is fantastic as Omalu, transforming himself into the soft-spoken, egotistical, yet vigilant, Doctor. His performance is excellent as he morphs into the Nigerian who simply wants to do what is right.

Daddy's Home
Allison Rose | Dec 23, 2015
Will Ferrell's latest endeavor, Daddy’s Home, is more of the same mind numbing antics we have come to expect from him. I can only hope at some point someone has the common sense to stop hiring him.

Pan
Allison Rose | Dec 22, 2015
Presented in 1080p high definition video, the picture is very impressive with fantastic colors and extremely clear images. The 3D version of the film pops off the screen and add great depth to the presentation of the film.

The Hateful Eight
Allison Rose | Dec 21, 2015
I can’t decide if Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction) is incredibly brilliant or deeply disturbed; probably some combination of both.

The Big Short
Judith Raymer | Dec 21, 2015
Educational and enlightening would be an apt description were it not hidden beneath a highly entertaining, and darkly comedic film.

Sisters
Allison Rose | Dec 18, 2015
From driving techno beats to old school ‘80s songs, the music is a great-added element and helps get the audience in a party mood.
