Retro Movie Review: MIAMI BLUES Starring Alec Baldwin, Jennifer Jason Leigh
This week’s Retro Review takes us back to 1990. Back before Alec Baldwin made people laugh playing Donald Trump, he actually starred in some pretty damn good movies. ‘Miami Blues’ is one of those films, which is highly underrated. Directed by George Armitage and co-starring Jennifer Jason Leigh and Fred Ward, the film revolves around […]
Review: ‘Annihilation’ Starring Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson, Oscar Isaac
After a little over a decade of screenwriting a number of groundbreaking films (28 Days Later, Sunshine, Dredd), Alex Garland transitioned to the director’s chair for the first time in 2015 and delivered a masterful film he wrote called Ex Machina.

Greenberg Starring Ben Stiller – HD Trailer
Finally! A Ben Stiller film that doesn’t consist of him doing prat falls and looking like a monkey man. Stiller has a special place in my heart from his short lived Ben Stiller Show on MTV, and his first film Reality Bites. I’m even a fan of some of generic comedy (Zoolander, Meet the Parents, […]
