(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/10/2017 8:52 AM EDT Back in the 1980's, horror films were all about blood and gore and people chasing teenagers and popping out from every corner. Nowadays, they have evolved into more of psychological thrillers with characters and story lines playing with our minds. There are also more horror movies centering around "urban legends" tha...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/6/2017 9:23 AM EDT In 2011, The Smurfs got the "live action" treatment followed by a sequel in 2013. Both starred Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother) and Hank Azaria (The Simpsons). While they were hugely successful, they didn't have the same feel as the 1980's Saturday morning cartoon we all knew and loved. Luckily, Sony A... Read More |
 
(Nathan M Rose) 4/5/2017 8:47 AM EDT When most people think of the name Arnold Schwarzenegger, they think of explosions, hardcore action, and a high body count. However, with the actor, turned governor turned actor again, getting up there in age, the type of roles that Schwarzenegger is accepting are tending to be more dramatic. A prime example of this is his latest film, A... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 4/4/2017 11:11 AM EDT For a hilarious, if not a bit raunchy, comedy about a father having to cut the umbilical cord with his grown-up daughter, Why Him? fits the bill perfectly. Delightfully comedic, Why Him? is almost the perfect third date movie. The cast blends together well in an effort to bring a prior generation into the new te... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 4/4/2017 9:34 AM EDT Alfred Hitchcock was a master of directing. His films, like the man, are legendary. He could evoke emotion with one subtle take and a testament to his brilliance is how his films have stood the test of time. Fathom Events recognizes his genius and brought his classic thriller North by Northwest back to theaters for a one-week event.A... Read More |
(Eric English) 4/3/2017 1:01 PM EDT "Incredible"..."Triumphant"..."Out Of This World".... A long time ago in a Galaxy far, far away, as movie goers lined up to witness the spectacle of "some new sci-fi flick", these exclamations could be overheard as those now initiated emerged wide-eyed from the theater.A relatively unknown director in an unch...

(Jennifer Broderick) 4/3/2017 11:07 AM EDT Warner Bros. is turning out to be what I would consider one of the smartest studios around. Not only did they work with J.K. Rowling to provide one of the world's most popular movie franchises to people of all ages, but they have made the best business decision to bring the Harry Potter movies to 4K UHD. Harry Potter and The De... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 4/3/2017 9:07 AM EDT Warner Bros. has been amazing moviegoers over the last few years with their movie content, storylines, and choice of cast. In the last year, they have also shown incredible foresight into bringing some of their prior blockbuster releases into the new digital technology. The Harry Potter franchise has enthralled kids and adults... Read More |
(Judith Raymer) 3/30/2017 10:59 AM EDT "Kind of disjointed," whispered one correspondent. "Distracting…," murmured another. Yet, they all boisterously agreed loudly that they found themselves laughing...increasingly. "It was very funny," many, if not all, declared. Wherever the disconnect might be, this film is truly funny, inventiv... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 3/28/2017 9:58 AM EDT For all the Harry Potter fans out there, J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros. has rewarded us with a "prequel" to the beloved magical series (rumored to be the first of possibly five- yes, five!) that creates its own story without losing the Harry Potter vibe that is central to the stories.
