Goodbye Christopher Robin

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/26/2018 3:06 PM EDT
He was just a little boy and his bear living in the countryside of England. Who knew the stories of his moments at play would eventually become the most beloved book of all time. Not only did they bring a country, and the world, back from the depressing post wartime but also they have endured for almost 100 years. Unfortunately, for the real Christ... Read More

Geostorm

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/23/2018 10:07 AM EDT
For the last 30 years, Global Warming and climate change have been discussed and debated. Nowadays, they are at the forefront of almost any political conversation. But what if we could resolve all of that? What if we could launch satellites into the atmosphere that could control and alter weather patterns making our current climat... Read More

Jigsaw

(Nathan M Rose) 1/23/2018 9:22 AM EDT
In October of 2004, a little unknown film entitled Saw, by then unknown writer/director James Wan (Furious 7) and writer Leigh Whannell, rewrote the modern slasher horror film and created a new modern horror killer, Jigsaw (Tobin Bell; The Flash). It went on to spawn many sequels before it's "finale" in 2010... Read More

November Criminals

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/18/2018 11:07 PM EDT
Take a coming of age/teenage angst movie, add a murder mystery, stir vigorously, throw it against the wall and see what sticks. Throw in some the best, young talent Hollywood has to offer right now. Finally, give it some obscure name and you have the formula for November Criminals. Starring Ansel Elgort (The Fault In Our Stars) and Chlo... Read More

Den of Thieves

(Judith Raymer) 1/18/2018 9:11 AM EDT
Spoilers, spoilers...at this time, I do not believe that I can adequately… justly...discuss this film without blowing major plot points, and spoiling swaths of emotional highs and lows. But, before throwing any of those in your unexpecting face...Ever since the first trailer for Den of Thieves was released back in October 201... Read More

12 Strong

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/18/2018 8:47 AM EDT
For those who were not alive when Pearl Harbor was attacked, the biggest terrorist attack ever on United States soil happened on September 11, 2001. The Taliban targeted major buildings in the Northeast setting off a wave of panic and patriotism across this country. Of course, this also set our military into action and, unbeknownst to m...

The Lego Ninjago Movie

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/16/2018 4:40 PM EDT
With the success of 2014's The Lego Movie and 2017's The Lego Batman Movie, Warner Bros. decided to continue the franchise and created a film based on the popular Lego Ninjago toy line called, appropriately, The Lego Ninjago Movie. I must admit that after having enjoyed the first two films very much and finding them surprisingly funny and delightfu... Read More

Blade Runner 2049

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/15/2018 4:00 PM EDT
In 1982, Ridley Scott (Alien) gave us a highly stylized movie called Blade Runner. It was set in the future and starred Harrison Ford (Star Wars: Episode IV -A New Hope). Thirty-five Years later, Director Denis Villeneuve (Sicario) gives us the sequel, Blade Runner 2049. It continues the story of the ... Read More

The Commuter

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 1/12/2018 8:57 AM EDT
Millions of people everyday doing the same thing over and over again. They leave their nice little homes in the suburbs, get on a train into Manhattan, go to work in some high rise building all day, get back on the train, and head home back to the suburbs. Nothing much changes from one day to the next and nothing exciting ever really ha... Read More

In 1986 a young Stephen King published one of his most ambitious books yet entitled simply It. The novel tells the tale of an alien entity that haunts the fictional town of Derry, Maine, and feeds on its inhabits. In early 1990s ABC gave Pennywise his first appearances on film in a made for tv miniseries. Now 37 years later Warner Bros. gives Penny... Read More
