(Stephanie Coats) 4/10/2019 11:20 AM EDT In 2011, the film Hanna, directed by Joe Wright and starring a teenage Saoirse Ronan, was released to rave reviews from critics and audiences. It was a different kind of action film with a teenage girl at the center doing the most of the fighting. Now Amazon has taken that film, fleshed out the story, and made a new streaming series, also titled Ha... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/9/2019 5:02 PM EDT Dick Cheney (Christian Bale; The Dark Knight) spent much of his political career flying under the radar despite the fact that he held some of the highest political offices there are in Washington, D.C. Perhaps that is due to the fact that the man himself was very secretive - a trait that would serve him well in his later years. After le... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/9/2019 10:03 AM EDT Josef Allen Hynek was born in 1931 in Chicago and earned his PhD. from Yerkes Observatory in Wisconsin. He became a professor at Ohio State University and taught astronomy until one day in 1948 when the United States Air Force enlisted his help to bring credibility to some otherwise unexplainable, unusual events. He spent year debunking... Read More |
(Judith Raymer) 4/5/2019 4:28 PM EDT In spite of a prolific career making films, many of us will forever behold Emilio Estevez (The Way; Bobby; The Breakfast Club; The Mighty Ducks) holed up in a library as part of a motley crew of (seemingly) mismatched misfits. Now, some thirty-odd years later, we get to return to the library in a somewhat grown-up version of The Breakfast Clu... Read More |
(Leonard Buccellato) 4/2/2019 1:40 AM EDT Face it… Fan-girls and boys, love Hellboy. And really, what's not to love? A red-skinned, snarky, Nazi-hating demon, which fights for and with, the good guys. Not to mention, a quasi, semi-secretive government agency that directs his actions to destroy paranormal and Lovecraftian threats to planet earth?! Think about it. IT has al... Read More |
(Maureen Buccellato) 4/1/2019 12:56 PM EDT Clint Eastwood (Gran Torino) is an indisputable Hollywood legend. His unwavering career as actor, director, and producer has spanned over 60 years and has produced not only successful roles and films, but iconic ones. "The Mule", Eastwood's latest project that was released in 2018, is yet another example of his excellence in acting an... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/1/2019 1:13 AM EDT When one thinks of comedy legends, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are definitely on the list. This duo began their career in the late 1920s and went on to become not only 2 of the best-known comedians, but two of the best-known celebrities in the world. In a word, they are iconic. The film Stan & Ollie was released in 2018, bringing the two men b... Read More |
(Maureen Buccellato) 4/1/2019 12:41 AM EDT Nancy Drew has been around as long as most of us can remember. The famous book character emerged in the 1930s and has undergone many changes throughout the years, keeping up with contemporary culture. Appearing in over 200 books, TV series, and films, the character has maintained popularity throughout the years and now, once again, we are treated t... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/29/2019 8:34 AM EDT Since 2007 audiences have had the pleasure of watching a Saturday morning cartoon come to life in the form of Transformers. These autoboot, alien creatures came to Earth seeking a place to hide from the evil forces that looked to destroy them. Over five films spread across a dozen years, we have gotten to know Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatr... Read More |
(Alyn Darnay) 3/28/2019 2:33 PM EDT I have always found films about India to be fascinating. Probably because India is a place of mystery, magic, philosophy, and hidden secrets. A place so big and filled with so many people that you get the feeling that anything could happen at any moment; and it did in the most terrifying way in 2008. That's when the members of the "Lashkar-e-T... Read More |
