(John Delia) 11/21/2013 4:13 PM EDT What starts out a typical Vince Vaughn comedy becomes a heartfelt dramedy in the film Delivery Man. The movie takes audiences into the world of a sperm donor and how one person can complicate the lives of the 533 children of the recipients. The story is a fantasy, but it's also a cool "what if" question that makes the mo... Read More |

(John Delia) 10/24/2013 8:10 PM EDT No surprises here, Ridley Scott continues his inscrutable melodramas with The Counselor a weak film that's well acted by a stellar cast, but with a theme that's worn-out.

(John Delia) 10/17/2013 8:38 AM EDT Well the ex-Governor and ex-boxer finally get full feature screen time together in their new film Escape Plan and they haven't broken the formula yet.
