(Jennifer Broderick) 1/11/2017 10:25 AM EDT Step back into time to a prolific era when men returned from The Great War and lost themselves, where life was easy, alcohol was for the back rooms, speakeasies were the thing to do, and the Irish and Italian Mobs ran the country. Live By Night transports you back into a time that has gone by the wayside- a glorious, relaxing time full of... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/9/2017 9:25 PM EDT Home Box Office has continually been synonymous with outstanding televisions series almost from the time they started producing them, and they show no signs of slowing down now. Case in point, the series Girls, about to start it's sixth season in February, has been nominated and won numerous awards over the past 5 years. The ... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/6/2017 7:04 AM EDT Why are we so fascinated by vampires and werewolves? Movies and television shows about them are incredibly popular regardless if they are good or not. The Underworld franchise incorporates both of these supernatural characters in a battle for ultimate domination and for 2017 a brand new film continues the war. Underworld... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/5/2017 9:39 PM EDT In the early 1900's, the aristocracy of this country were ashamed of their physically and mentally ill children. They created secret rooms in their homes to hide away their less than perfect offspring, never allowing them to see the outside nor interact with other people. These rooms were called the disappointments room and they we... Read More |
 
(Jennifer Broderick) 1/5/2017 5:06 PM EDT The purpose of a movie is to tell a story and to entertain the audience. A Monster Calls is the epitome of a story with a deep meaning, one with a lesson, or two, and one with such emotion that there isn't a dry eye left in the theater or a sound emitting from the audience by the time the credits roll.Conor McGuire (Lewis MacDou...

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/4/2017 7:17 PM EDT It's not easy being smart. It's even harder being smart and being a female. It was very hard being smart and being a female in 1961, but it was awful being smart, female and Negro in 1961. However, Katherine Goble- Johnson (Taraji Henson; Empire), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer; The Help) and Mary J... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 1/3/2017 12:30 AM EDT In 1999 The Blair Witch Project changed the face of horror movies and became an instant classic. With it's "shaky cam", documentary style filmmaking it opened up a new way of looking at horror. It intrigued us and fascinated us and scared the living daylights out of us. In 2016 Lionsgate reimagined the film releasing Blair... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/27/2016 9:53 AM EDT Edward Snowden has been called many things... patriot, traitor, whistle-blower, etc. Some feel what he did was necessary in order to keep our government in check, while others thought he did irrevocable damage to our national security. Regardless of your feelings, there is no doubt he is a brave and polarizing figure. Based on an ... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 12/26/2016 9:33 PM EDT There are some stories of the past that are just epic. They tell a story, they involve you in their character's life to the point where you are invested in the outcome and you don't even know its happening until the movie is over. Finally, you let out your breath that you didn't even know you were holding. In this vein... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 12/26/2016 8:32 PM EDT Hollywood is full of real life stories of the husband running off with the nanny, or having an affair, and there have been several movies made similarly. In fact, there have been movies made where the nanny becomes obsessed with the husband and it didn't end well for the nanny. Screen Gems and Sony decided to put a little spin... Read More |
