He even waived his salary for the film since it was a lifelong passion of his. This year saw the fruit of his labors... Read More |

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/13/2017 10:22 AM EDT Patti Cakes, Patti Cakes, bakers…this isn't that kind of movie. When one hears the term "patty cake", we generally think of the beloved children's game and hear that song running through our head. In this case, Patti Cake$ takes on a whole new meaning as it is a nickname Patricia Dombrowski's (Danielle Macdona... Read More |
 
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/10/2017 11:39 AM EDT It's hard to believe that it was twenty-five years ago that Kate (Catherine O'Hara; Frankenweenie) and Peter (John Heard; Big) McCallister lost track of their son Kevin (Macaulay Culkin; My Girl) for the second time in two years as the family went on vacation. I mean…really!?! Who forgets their ki... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 11/7/2017 10:53 AM EDT Netflix has created an empire all unto themselves with their Netflix originals- both with their movies and television series.

(Jennifer Broderick) 11/6/2017 11:46 AM EDT Let's all admit it. By the time a franchise is into its third sequel, the audience starts wondering if it's really worth spending the time and money going to see movie number three. It's a good thing that the writers and directors of Cars 3 are a step (or two) above other franchises because Cars 3 is going so fast, n... Read More |
(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 11/6/2017 10:46 AM EDT So many times in Hollywood films the alcoholism of one of the characters becomes the main focus of the film. We see the individual falling down, slurring their words, making horrible life choices, being abusive and destroying, at best, their own lives and at worst the lives of those around them. While The Glass Castle addresses the ... Read More |
(Judith Raymer) 11/2/2017 8:29 AM EDT Where to begin?!? Where to begin! I suppose with ALERT: THERE WILL BE SPOILERS! Now then… While a fan of Marvel, its Cinematic Universe, and Thor in all film appearances (& beyond, er, before…), the Thor films have not been among my favorites. That is until now. Directed by Taika Waititi (What We Do in the ... Read More |
