High Life
Pattinson tackles a difficult role with aplomb. This is a side of the actor we have not seen before - more mature and thoughtful.

Major League
It's hard to believe that this fun, creative film is turning thirty years old but it still stands the test of time and is a joy to watch.

The Aftermath
Unfortunately, the script is lackluster at best which makes the film more of a morose and morbid reminder of one of the worst wars in world history.

Yesterday
Patel's musicality and vocals are excellent which makes it a joy listening to him interpret these classic Beatles songs.

Wild Rose
Between the script the visuals and the highly talented cast, Wild Rose is a great ride that you will want to go on from the minute the movie starts to its somewhat yet fitting ending.

Disney manages to breathe new life into the Toy Story franchise, and found a way to once again give a cohesive tale that again finishes Woody’s saga as a childhood toy.

Hemsworth plays his part well and is actually much of the “comic” relief in this film along with a cute chess piece Molly names Pawny voiced by Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick).
