(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/2/2017 3:12 PM EDT Judge Dredd made his debut in British comic books as early as the late 1970's as a law enforcement officer in Mega City One, a dystopian society set sometime in the future. His authority includes arresting, convicting, sentencing and, if necessary, executing criminals in an effort to keep the peace. Then in 1995 Sylvester Stallone (Rocky) broug... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/30/2017 9:34 AM EDT Seventeen years ago, Hugh Jackman (The Prestige) commanded the screen as the brooding, mutant Wolverine in the movie X-Men. We've seen his story evolve, as he becomes a reluctant hero while battling the demons of his past. He resists Charles Xavier's (Patrick Stewart; Star Trek: The Next Generation) assistance, yet aids the group in battlin... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/16/2017 9:39 AM EDT Usually when you think of a western movie you think of horses, gunslingers, saloons, and cowboys. 1992's Academy Award winner for best picture, Unforgiven, has all that and more. With Clint Eastwood (Gran Torino) at the helm, both directing and starring in it, the movie opened to well deserved critical praise and became an aud... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/16/2017 9:18 AM EDT Resident Evil is the longest running female action series in movie history. Based on a video game, the first film made it's way to theaters in 2002 and fifteen years later we have movie number six, Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, hitting stores on 4K, Blu-ray and Digital Download. With crazier stunts, fans of the series will n... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 10:00 AM EDT It's very rare when a sequel manages to be as good as the original movie and even rarer still when the sequel is actually better than the original. You can probably count on your right hand how many times that has happened in filmmaking but, if you did, you would have to include The Expendables 2 in that illustrious grouping. ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 9:29 AM EDT When The Expendables came out seven years ago, it was a who's who of today's best action heroes and promised to be jam-packed with the type of work they are known for. It didn't disappoint and spawned two more films in the franchise. The original offered another Sylvester Stallone (Rocky) production as he not only starred in t... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 5/1/2017 3:54 PM EDT If we all love a good movie/musical (and past success dictates we do) then La La Land is a movie that everyone must see. It's a simple, romantic movie, full of song and dance, that sways together in sync with the harmonic melody of the underlying story. There is a reason that this film was the winner of six Academy Awards, including... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/1/2017 10:09 AM EDT There is nothing quite like a good old-fashioned western and when done right, it can be entertaining and enjoyable. From the outlaws to the lawmen, and the gunfights that take over a small town, they are a part of movie history that continues to this day. Ten years ago, Lionsgate decided to add to the Western movie collection ... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 4/24/2017 4:32 PM EDT In 2003, a relatively unknown actress, Kate Beckinsale (Pearl Harbor), along with director Len Wiseman (Total Recall), created a new gothic/steampunk/action/sci-fi franchise entitled Underworld. Since then, we have been treated to various adventures in a world dominated by Vampires and Lycans and now, in 2017, Sony Pictures and Screen Gems have unl... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 4/12/2017 8:45 AM EDT In a world in which being both black and a female were disadvantages, to say the least, Twentieth Century Fox shows audiences that if you have the guts to do it, nothing - including color or gender - can stop you. Based upon Margot Lee Shetterly's non-fiction novel, Hidden Figures: The Story of the African-American Women Who Hel... Read More |
