(Sean Ferguson) 3/17/2017 10:49 AM EDT This week, Warner Brothers released to Bluray & DVD "Collateral Beauty", which was released in theaters back in December of 2016. This picture is headed by Will Smith, who recently seems to step away from his big summer blockbusters here and there in the search of that elusive Best Actor Oscar. The sad part is, he's deserved it ma... Read More |
 
(Judith Raymer) 3/15/2017 10:01 AM EDT Disney's latest masterpiece, Beauty and the Beast, is a live-action adaptation based on the 1991 animated classic. Some fans of the original (including original cast members that might have been quoted in the press) have questioned the need for or purpose of "recreating" such a timeless favorite. Had the studio decided to ... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/8/2017 1:52 PM EDT Ever since he first appeared in movie theaters back in 1933, we have had a fascination with one humongous ape. King Kong became a classic and sparked not only our imaginations but spawned remakes and reincarnations of the huge beast. In 2005, Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings) brought his spin to the series in a three-hour... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 3/8/2017 10:39 AM EDT In the 1960s, the United States was introduced to Camelot. Camelot – a time of romance and prosperity. The time in which there was contentment throughout the kingdom and people were happy. Well, we, as Americans, didn't have King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, or The Knights of the Round Table; we had the White House, the Oval Office, and the K... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/7/2017 11:51 AM EDT There was a time when horror movies meant scary monsters who preyed on teenagers and created massive amounts of carnage wherever they went. More recently, though, a lot of these type of horror movies have been replaced with a more suspenseful, psychological thriller-like motif of storytelling that offers a few scares but also plays tricks on ...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/6/2017 5:07 PM EDT Disney had a strong year movie-wise in 2016. From Zootopia to the sequel Finding Dory and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story to Captain America: Civil War, they had a full slate of quality movies, both animated and live action. Their year culminated in their strongest animated feature, Moana. From a great story to catchy music to amazing animation,... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 3/3/2017 4:28 PM EDT Some people thought Howard Hughes was a genius, others would call him eccentric. Some would say he was eclectic or reclusive and others would simply state he was crazy. His OCD tendencies were as famous as his deals and mountains of money, not to mention the Hollywood starlets who often accompanied him. He made money in everything... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 2/28/2017 9:27 AM EDT I always find that the hardest reviews to write are for movies that I thought were out of this world, and Marvel Studio's Doctor Strange is at the top of my writer's block list. From the script to the special effects to the cast, Doctor Strange is one of the best Marvel movies to date. After all, some of the best things in life... Read More |
(Leonard Buccellato) 2/27/2017 2:16 PM EDT Vestron Video strikes again! Hot on the heels of Parents and Lair of the White Worm, comes the oft-overlooked but always a ton of fun, The Gate. The Gate is directed by Tibor Takács (The Gate 2, I, Madman) and stars Stephen Dorff (Blade, The Immortals) in his film debut.... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 2/27/2017 8:38 AM EDT It's rare that one gets to watch a movie about self-discovery but Lionsgate and A24 have released a movie that when you watch it, provides a profound sense of oneself and understanding of what it takes to mold a person from childhood to adulthood. Director Barry Jenkins (Medicine for Melancholy) has taken a story and transforme... Read More |
