(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/19/2018 11:37 PM EDT Six years ago we fell in love with video game characters Wreck-It Ralph (John C. Reilly; Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story) and Vanellope von Schweetz (Sarah Silverman; A Million Ways to Die in the West). These two worked their way into our hearts and stayed there. We routed for them despite their "glitches" and were so happy whe... Read More |
 
(Leonard Buccellato) 11/19/2018 10:58 PM EDT When Mark Wahlberg and Peter Berg work together we, the moviegoers, are undoubtedly prepared for a fast-paced and excitement-filled movie ala Deepwater Horizon and Lone Survivor. We are also likely to be treated to an action film that is able to connect its characters to the audience.Mile 22 delivers an action-centric, yet, otherwise, flawed, thril... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/19/2018 4:24 PM EDT Racism and racial profiling are unfortunately still a very large issue in this country. Nearly every month there is a major news story regarding a young black man being killed by a member of the Police force. The subject has been regurgitated time and time again in newspapers, on television, in books, and in the movies. For Blinds... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/18/2018 11:30 AM EDT The old saying goes… you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your family? But what if you could? Well for some people that is exactly what happens. On average there are over 400,000 children in foster care each year and of the 135,000 children are adopted each year, 59% come from the fost...

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 11/15/2018 9:50 AM EDT J.K.Rowling couldn't have imagined the phenomenon she created when she originally spun a story about a magical world and a boy wizard. Like so many of the comic book superheroes, Harry Potter has become its own universe with avid fans of all ages worldwide. When the eight films ended there was a certain sadness to see it all come to... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/14/2018 2:07 PM EDT She was a talented writer. She had compassion and conviction. The combination made her words powerful and she became one of the most respected war correspondents in the world. That compassion and Conviction are also likely what got her killed. Running into war zones while others ran away, she told their stories… the soldier... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 11/12/2018 11:31 PM EDT Back in 1972, author David Morrell penned a novel entitled First Blood. It the story of a decorated Vietnam Veteran who was just returning home from the war to find that he was looked down upon and was not welcome in his own country. The book was praised having shone a light on the condition some of our brave soldiers were returning home... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 11/12/2018 10:10 PM EDT Warner Bros. has an amazing capacity for bringing the unknown and mysterious to life. I can think of more than several movies wherein the audience becomes so invested in the characters, the storyline, and the ending that the edge of the cinema seat is the most worn part of the chair. The thriller movie of the summer can be your thriller... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/12/2018 2:38 PM EDT Terrorism is a worldwide threat and as the saying goes… "we don't negotiate with terrorists". But what if they somehow found a way to infiltrate the most secure aircraft in the world...Air Force One? What if they took the President of the United States and his family hostage? What if they were holding all the card... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/12/2018 10:25 AM EDT If you were an African American in this country in the 1960's and 1970's it was a tumultuous time. Desegregation caused violent outbreaks all over the United States. The Ku Klux Klan was building their "army" and recruiting those with similar ideology to join their cause while black men and women were protesting in the streets... Read More |
