Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates

Nathan M Rose | Oct 10, 2016

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates does seem to work better on the small screen. In the theater, where one expects grandiose and larger than life pictures, this one just didn’t have the power to bring people in.

Swiss Army Man

Sean Ferguson | Oct 04, 2016

At the end of the day, I thought Swiss Army Man was creative for sure, and kept my attention, but just made me feel like I watched one weird movie!

The Purge: Election Year

Allison Rose | Oct 04, 2016

None of films in The Purge franchise are spectacular works of art, but, for what they are, they are enjoyable enough and this last one is more of the same.

X-Men: Apocalypse

Jennifer Broderick | Oct 04, 2016

Allison Rose | Sep 29, 2016

Highlander Physical Media: Blu-ray Review

Highlander : 30th Anniversary

Nathan M Rose | Sep 27, 2016

A story that took itself seriously, dialog and cast that delivered fantastic performances...a pulse pounding rock soundtrack from Queen meshed to make for a classic movie.

Cell

Allison Rose | Sep 27, 2016

As a commentary on today’s world where most of us are in a zombie-like state staring at our electronic devices instead of interacting with those around us, Cell is a meaningful look at what we as a society have become.
