Justice League

Allison Rose | Nov 15, 2017

I went into Justice League with somewhat low expectations and walked out with a slightly brighter outlook than I expected. With some funny moments to lighten the mood and some strong (literally and figuratively) characters.

Thor: Ragnarok

Judith Raymer | Nov 02, 2017

Thor Ragnarok Brings Us Sparkles In Sakaar. It’s a “Hela” Good Fun, Too!

A Bad Moms Christmas

Allison Rose | Nov 01, 2017

While not cinematic excellence, A Bad Moms Christmas is a fun, guilty pleasure and put simply – a good time.

Only The Brave

Allison Rose | Oct 19, 2017

Sufficed to say Only The Brave is a real tearjerker of a film and the memories will haunt the viewer for a while afterward as the film stays with you long after you leave the theater.

The Hitman's Bodyguard

Allison Rose | Aug 17, 2017

While The Hitman’s Bodyguard may not be a complete bullseye, it is entertaining and has a solid cast. Reynold’s and Jackson were great choices and I certainly hope Lionsgate will be able to tap them to return for the sequel.

Wind River

Allison Rose | Aug 11, 2017

There is a reason Wind River is gaining momentum. While it can be hard to watch at times, it is a compelling story that envelopes the audience from the opening scenes.

The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature

Allison Rose | Aug 10, 2017

Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature's animation is well done and the colors are typical of an animated feature geared towards younger audiences. Vibrant greens and reds catch the eye beautifully and the dark colors are still bright enough to not overshadow the scenes.

Atomic Blonde

Allison Rose | Jul 26, 2017

While I expected one of the plot twists in the film (making it somewhat predictable), I didn’t see a second one that blindsided me at the end of the film and made for a nice surprise. Atomic Blonde had good flow and pacing and just the right amount of action so it didn’t go over the top.

Dunkirk

Allison Rose | Jul 18, 2017

Hans Zimmer’s score also added an additional element to the overall feel of Dunkirk and helped build the suspense and momentum throughout. The cinematography was exceptional with shots from above of a vast waterway and close up views of the beach, inside a ship, and the French shoreline.
