Gods of Egypt

Allison Rose | Feb 25, 2016

In a time of remakes and sequels, Gods of Egypt attempts to bring something fresh to the theaters.

Zoolander 2

Sean Ferguson | Feb 12, 2016

The real question is after 15 years, could they capture the silly, stupid and yet fun magic in a bottle they caught with the Zoolander and would the next generation even be interested?

How To Be Single

Allison Rose | Feb 11, 2016

If you do decide to see How to Be Single, don’t expect much. It isn’t very funny. Johnson plays almost the same character as she did in Fifty Shades of Grey while Wilson is “Fat Amy”, only in a different setting.

Full Review | Grade: D

Deadpool

Allison Rose | Feb 08, 2016

This is certainly not the typical Marvel/DC comic fare we’ve seen of late. Much like its main character, Deadpool sets itself apart from the rest.

Full Review | Grade: A

The Choice

Allison Rose | Feb 05, 2016

Granted, The Choice won’t be winning any Oscars, but in terms of a decent movie with that typical Sparks flair for telling a love story and making us cry, it hits its mark.

Hail, Caesar!

Allison Rose | Feb 04, 2016

I spent almost two hours trying to figure out what this Hail, Caesar! was about. Was it a farce? Was it wry look at the 1950s movie business and the studio system? Was it a commentary on Communism and McCarthyism? I’m still not sure, and walked away confused and befuddled.

Pride, Prejudice and Zombies

Nathan M Rose | Feb 04, 2016

The studio directive of keeping Pride, Prejudice and Zombies PG-13/kid friendly, as well as the sloppy editing of Padraic McKinley, will certainly contribute to this film not becoming a cult hit.

The Finest Hours

Allison Rose | Jan 28, 2016

I also had flashbacks a few times to a similar film, The Perfect Storm, as I watched the small ship battle to crest the waves barreling down upon them.

Full Review | Grade: C

Ride Along 2

Allison Rose | Jan 15, 2016

If you take Ride Along 2 for what it is…a fun non-thinking every-man's movie, it isn’t terrible. The plot is thin and recycled and the acting is less than Oscar worthy, but there are a few laughs that make the movie watchable.

Concussion

Allison Rose | Dec 24, 2015

Will Smith is fantastic as Omalu, transforming himself into the soft-spoken, egotistical, yet vigilant, Doctor. His performance is excellent as he morphs into the Nigerian who simply wants to do what is right.
