Irresistible
Irresistible is a cute, little film not without flaws but the overall feeling you get while watching it helps you to forgive and forget those flaws.

7500
Gordon-Levitt was an excellent casting choice as he is certainly one of the best parts of 7500.

Da 5 Bloods
Da 5 Bloods is one of Lee’s best films to date and one I’m sure that will be studied in intro to film/cinema classes at colleges all across the country.

The King of Staten Island
Davidson had to play Scott as so much of the story parallels his own life. He obviously drew on his experiences to bring out the emotions he faces in the film.

The Hunt
Gilpin is great and Swank is downright deplorable herself as the evil mastermind behind The Hunt. It helps that they are surrounded by a whole bunch of actors that play their parts well.

At 93 minutes long and a VOD release, you might think Body Cam is going to be terrible and while you aren’t completely wrong, you aren’t completely right either.

Scoob!
Scoob!'s animation is very well done with vibrant colors and sharp details. The soundtrack is also eclectic helping adult viewers take a stroll down memory lane.

Spaceship Earth
What makes Matt Wolf’s documentary so interesting is the background and the origin stories of the group that he uses to lay the foundation leading up to the Biosphere 2 experiment.
