The Boss

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/7/2016 10:57 AM EDT
For me, Melissa McCarthy is hit or miss. Sometimes I like her stuff; other times I don't. Mike and Molly was funny enough. Bridesmaids was hysterical and her character was great. Spy was another example of a fun and entertaining McCarthy movie. However, The Heat and Tammy were both awful and torturous to sit through. S... Read More

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/24/2016 8:37 AM EDT
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has been one of those highly anticipated super hero movies. Beginning last year, my friends and family started taking sides and debating which hero would, or should, win. Merchandise made its way into stores and online even before the holidays, and the first "sneak peak" debuted a year a... Read More

Eye in the Sky

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/23/2016 1:20 PM EDT
War is a polarizing subject. Is it necessary? Do the ends justify the means? For hundreds of years, countries have sent their young adults off to kill or be killed with mixed results. With today's technological advances, the risks of casualties may seem smaller but can actually be just the opposite. Gavin Hood's (End... Read More

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/23/2016 10:44 AM EDT
Opa! Nia Vardalos (Connie and Carla) does it again. A sequel 14 years in the making, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 has all the laughs and emotional baggage we loved the first time around. All of our favorite characters return to remind us of the craziness surrounding the Portokalos family, while they navigate through new challenges&h... Read More

The Divergent Series: Allegiant

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/17/2016 2:17 PM EDT
There are some movies that are going to make money regardless of if they are good or bad. Allegiant is one of those movies. With a built in audience, and two films preceding it, it is sure to be a winner at the box office. Whether it is good or not is a matter of perspective.In the continuing saga of Tris&... Read More

10 Cloverfield Lane

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/10/2016 4:49 PM EDT
Anyone who would say 10 Cloverfield Lane is a sequel to 2008's Cloverfield would be wrong. It's more like the long distance cousin…they share a few similarities, but are very different on almost every level. Gone is the shaky, "home video" footage used in the first movie. No more guessing who the enemy is ... Read More

Zootopia

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/3/2016 9:26 PM EDT
Known for their cute, fun animated feature films, Disney takes a drastic turn with their new release, Zootopia. Usually shying away from controversial topics, this time they delve in head on to one of the most stressful topics plaguing our country right now - racial tension. Along with other moral messages, the film artfully navig... Read More

London Has Fallen

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/3/2016 2:55 PM EDT
For those who loved 2013's Olympus Has Fallen, this year's sequel, London Has Fallen, will surely live up to expectations. Many of the original cast has returned to make this action adventure film familiar on so many levels and enticing to fans of the original. However, with a new director (Babak Najafi; Banshee Origins) on board, there are e... Read More

Gods of Egypt

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/25/2016 6:30 PM EDT
In 22 years, Director Alex Proyas (The Crow) has made 6 major motion pictures. Some have become cult classics, while others were less than memorable. Regardless, one can usually discern a Proyas film, as his directing style is somewhat unique and his latest creation, Gods of Egypt, is no exception. With sweeping visuals, reminiscent of ...

Zoolander 2

(Sean Ferguson) 2/12/2016 10:02 AM EDT
RELAX, They've Done It!It's right time nowWell, now…It's hard to believe it's been 15 years since Ben Stiller gave us fashion Icon Derek Zoolander bursting onto the big screen in the 2001 classic Zoolander. Love it, or hate it, there seemed to be no in-between for those that saw it. For those that loved it, it became a classic with lines... Read More
