The Vampire Diaries Season 6
Allison Rose | 
The Vampire Diaries Season 6 maybe the saddest and bloodiest one so far.  From other worldly prisons, to a new witch/vampire hybrid, the supernatural dimension went into overdrive this year.

Mad Max: Fury Road
Allison Rose | 
While I can’t say I was as enthralled with Mad Max: Fury Road as most people, I did enjoy finding out what all the excitement was about.  I found myself in awe over some of the stunts and impressed with much of the acting.

We Are Your Friends
Allison Rose | 
Entertaining as it is, and with some good acting thrown in, I think We Are Your Friends misses the mark in some aspects and won’t be a blockbuster in theaters.

American Ultra
Allison Rose | 
American Ultra couldn’t decide if it was a serious spy movie or a parody of a spy movie, which confused the audience and left each individual trying to figure out what the purpose of the movie was.

Hitman: Agent 47
Nathan M Rose | 
When Hitman: Agent 47 fails at the box office, one could, and will, argue the case that Hitman: Agent 47 didn’t fair well because R rated films have fallen out of fair with audience. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Hitman: Agent 47 failed because of a weak script created by a studio hack that has a track record of horrible films.

Mike & Molly: Season 5
Allison Rose | 
Under all the humor (or lack there of), the show has some heart and a good “soul” which makes for a feel good half hour each week.  Unfortunately, it isn’t enough.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the show only has one or two seasons left.

Straight Outta Compton
Allison Rose | 
The two hour and thirty minute running time is long and there were definitely scenes that could have been made shorter or cut out all together.  However, Straight Outta Compton definitely is worth seeing, even if you can’t relate to rap music.
