(Judith Raymer) 5/8/2017 5:07 PM EDT For those who might have missed the theatrical release (and, those who didn't), the highly anticipated Fifty Shades Darker is being released on Blu-ray & DVD (with a Digital HD copy included). The explosively popular second installment of the erotic (ahem) literary Fifty Shades series, and sequel to the "not e... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/8/2017 4:22 PM EDT HBO has more original programming than ever before and the majority of it is top notch, award-winning fare. This year, they added another show to their line up and it seems to want to continue the tradition of excellence they have put forth. Divorce debuted on October 9, 2016, and by November it had been renewed for a second season. &nb... Read More |
(Sean Ferguson) 5/2/2017 1:59 PM EDT It always amazes me as to what makes a picture popular. Is it the stars headlining the film? Is it the studio that releases the film? Is it all the advertising used to promote it? What if it all came down to the story that drove the film? If that were the case, The Salesman would be a box office success right up there alongside Logan... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 11:55 AM EDT In 1995, Bre-X, a Canadian mining company announced to the world they had found significant gold deposits in Busang, Indonesia. Overnight, they became a huge success and their penny stock suddenly was worth significantly more money per share. However, by 1997, everything fell apart when independent consultants couldn't replicate the... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 10:58 AM EDT Everyone knows that even before A Dog's Purpose opened in theaters this past January it was embroiled in a scandal. A video surfaced of what looked like a trainer forcing a terrified dog into a pool of rushing water and animal cruelty allegations were tossed around. What started out as PR for a movie full of cute dogs ended up... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 10:00 AM EDT It's very rare when a sequel manages to be as good as the original movie and even rarer still when the sequel is actually better than the original. You can probably count on your right hand how many times that has happened in filmmaking but, if you did, you would have to include The Expendables 2 in that illustrious grouping. ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/2/2017 9:29 AM EDT When The Expendables came out seven years ago, it was a who's who of today's best action heroes and promised to be jam-packed with the type of work they are known for. It didn't disappoint and spawned two more films in the franchise. The original offered another Sylvester Stallone (Rocky) production as he not only starred in t... Read More |
 
(Jennifer Broderick) 5/1/2017 3:54 PM EDT If we all love a good movie/musical (and past success dictates we do) then La La Land is a movie that everyone must see. It's a simple, romantic movie, full of song and dance, that sways together in sync with the harmonic melody of the underlying story. There is a reason that this film was the winner of six Academy Awards, including... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 5/1/2017 10:09 AM EDT There is nothing quite like a good old-fashioned western and when done right, it can be entertaining and enjoyable. From the outlaws to the lawmen, and the gunfights that take over a small town, they are a part of movie history that continues to this day. Ten years ago, Lionsgate decided to add to the Western movie collection ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/27/2017 4:00 PM EDT Every family is dysfunctional in some way or another, but the Cody clan takes that idea to new heights. As the core of the TNT drama Animal Kingdom, based on the critically acclaimed Australian film of the same name, they are as "white trash" as they come. Drugs, partying and a successful robbery business makes up their core b... Read More |
