Hotel Mumbai

Alyn Darnay | Mar 28, 2019

Hotel Mumbai is one of those films that will stay with you long after you leave the theater. It’s the type of skillfully made thriller that only comes around once in a while. Don’t miss it.

Dumbo

Allison Rose | Mar 27, 2019

Burton deserves credit for making this film not nearly as dark as many of his other features and the vibrant colors of the circus are definitely a departure from his usual darker tones.

Shazam!

Allison Rose | Mar 23, 2019

Shazam! Is humorous, heartwarming, and lighthearted...Unless you are coldhearted, you will most likely walk out of the theater with a smile on your face after enjoying a few laughs.

Us is certainly one of the smarter horror/thriller movies that have come about in the past several years (besides Get Out) and Peele knows how to terrify us without gore or crazy jump scares.

To Dust

Allison Rose | Mar 14, 2019

While the subject matter can be bleak and depressing Snyder veers away from the stereotypical view of mourning and instead offers a different perspective on the whole concept of death.

Captain Marvel

Allison Rose | Mar 06, 2019

Larson is a great casting choice to play Danvers/Captain Marvel. She has an air of power with a soft femininity underneath and a sarcastic wit that helps lighten the mood of the serious, action film.
