War Dogs

(Jennifer Broderick) 11/22/2016 10:39 AM EDT
A movie in which the Blu-ray cover states, "Money, Corruption and the American Dream" seems like it would be a movie about police force corruption, drug dealers, or strippers. No one in their right mind would think that Warner Bros. War Dogs is actually a movie about two of our military soldiers, Miami twenty-something's wh... Read More

Winter is coming" is the catch phrase of the highly popular HBO series Game of Thrones.

We all know the story of the little boy disabled boy who proves to everyone that just because he is disabled, he is not handicapped. Oh- wait.

Vice Principals

(Jennifer Broderick) 10/27/2016 8:57 AM EDT
Imagine that the high school Principal (Bill Murray; Groundhog Day) leaves his job unexpectedly without any replacement being named. Also, imagine, the two Vice Principals (Danny McBride; This is the End and Walter Goggins; American Ultra) of the same school are arch enemies and desperate enough to the point that they would do anything to ens...

Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising

(Jennifer Broderick) 10/21/2016 2:44 PM EDT
My, how Zac Efron (High School Musical) has grown up! In the first installment of this franchise, Teddy, played by Zac Efron, was a fraternity boy out to get his "adult" neighbors, Mac (Seth Rogan; Superbad ) and Kelly (Rose Byrne; Damages). In this second installment, he goes back to the fraternity house, now a sorority... Read More

Jack Reacher: Never Go Back

(Jennifer Broderick) 10/20/2016 1:54 PM EDT
"Reach for the stars" is a common idiom encouraging everyone to try their best, and with this second installment of Jack Reacher's adventures, Director Edward Zwick tried his very best to reach as high as he could- and I think it paid off. Based on the 18th book in author Lee Child's series, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back follo... Read More
