John Wick, Chapter 2
![]() (Nathan M Rose) 2/9/2017 10:07 AM EDT In 2014, Keanu Reeves (The Matrix) made a career comeback to action films with a little-known movie entitled John Wick. It featured the perfect revenge story, a man hell-bent on avenging the death of his dog that his wife gave him from beyond the grave.

The Salesman
![]() (Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/7/2017 9:50 AM EDT So much is different in other parts of the world from what we know and are used to in the United States. There are strict rules regarding women having their heads covered, what theater and music can be enjoyed, and how the police deal with crimes.

Rings
![]() (Judith Raymer) 2/3/2017 11:26 AM EDT It had been a long while since I'd seen a horror flick. I loved them as a kid, but somewhere along the way viewing them just trailed off. So, when the opportunity presented itself to view the latest chapter in the RING franchise, I wasn't so sure how I felt about seeing it. Then, I discovered that it had been directed by F. Javier...

The Space Between Us
![]() (Allison Hazlett-Rose) 2/3/2017 10:34 AM EDT Why has travel to Mars become such a hot movie topic of late?

This month's The Space Between Us a... Read More |

xXx: The Return of Xander Cage
![]() (Javier Conte) 1/20/2017 8:57 AM EDT As great as it is to eat a gourmet meal, sometimes, all you're really craving is some junk food; something cheap and tasty that you can just mindlessly eat for a little bit of instant pleasure. For me, action movies are my junk food. If Mad Max: Fury Road is the cinematic equivalent of a Five Guys burger, then xXx: Return of Xander Cage is like a Q... Read More |

Live By Night
![]() (Jennifer Broderick) 1/11/2017 10:25 AM EDT Step back into time to a prolific era when men returned from The Great War and lost themselves, where life was easy, alcohol was for the back rooms, speakeasies were the thing to do, and the Irish and Italian Mobs ran the country. Live By Night transports you back into a time that has gone by the wayside- a glorious, relaxing time full of... Read More |
