The Predator- Film Review

In this age of the drive for content and to just simply make films out of anything, The Predator series has been added to that list of reboots. The famous film series that once featured Arnold Schwarzenegger in the first film has been redesigned for a new audience, and the …

room review 2016

Room Review

Producer Ed Guiney, of Element Pictures, has had a, well, curious year. First, was the frank weirdness of The Lobster. Then came the awful and embarrassing 11 Minutes. And now, with Room, based on the book by Emma Donoghue, Guiney has produced one of the best films, not just of …

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review

Star Wars is a phenomenon like no other.

carol movie review

Carol Review

Joining the esteemed ranks of such prestige films as Rambo and Rocky, Oscar-contender Carol is the latest in the revered lexicon of character-name-as-title productions. Although disappointingly low on bullets and blood, Carol is a rich, chocolaty-to-the-point-of-edible period piece about illicit lesbian lovers in 50s America. Cate Blanchett (best known for …

steve jobs movie review 2015

Steve Jobs Review

Aaron Sorkin is probably the only (pure) screenwriter who is considered a household name. Or well, as close to as a screenwriter can be. His rocket-fueled dialogue, delivered by witty characters, in high-pressured situations, is one of a kind. Of course, his linguistic talents are only as good as the …
