Small Foot will also provoke controversy, especially from religious groups.  Depending on one’s viewpoint, Small Foot can make the argument either for or against organized religion.

Peppermint Movie / Film Review
Peppermint
For the average moviegoer or for fans of Jennifer Garner Peppermint doesn't go far enough to offer a worthwhile experience. I don't think we will see a sequel coming down the road for this one and that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Kin Movie / Film Review
Kin
James Franco is excellent as the stereotypical sleazy dirtbag.  As an actor, he is a chameleon who always delivers on screen.

Bang The Drum Slowly Movie / Film Review
Bang The Drum Slowly
Even though Bang The Drum Slowly is forty-five years old is it as poignant and relevant today as it was back in the 1970’s. It’s worth watching for any young person, especially those involved in sports.
