One of the most underrated television shows in recent memory will finally get an audience that it deserves. The MMA driven drama series Kingdom will begin airing on Netflix on July 1. All three seasons will be available to stream. Kingdom first aired on the now-defunct Audience Network by AT&T. I happened to overhear Joe […]
AJ Schnack may reside in Los Angeles these days, but the Edwardsville, Il. native and University of Missouri graduate showed off his Midwestern roots in Long Gone Summer, the new ESPN 30-For-30 film about the 1998 home run chase between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. The film was the culmination of a three-year process for […]
For this retro review, we are going back to 1993. Back to a time when Sylvester Stallone’s muscles were as big as his box-office clout. Back when action movies were action movies. Cliffhanger is without a doubt one of Stallone’s finest action films. It’s also director Renny Harlin’s best work. There’s not much bad to […]
Judd Apatow is a filmmaker who is not afraid to take chances. While he can bring the laughs with films like 40-Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up, he’s not afraid to get sentimental and tackle emotionally charged topics. Funny People was a prime example of that as Adam Sandler deals with learning he has cancer. […]
Yes, I realize 1999 wasn’t that long ago. 21 years ago, St. Louis had a football team, I had a head full of hair and sagging was cool. 21 years later, my hair is gone and now the in-style is wearing pants so tight it shows off your camel toe. Yeah, I wish some things […]
If you thought Vin Diesel’s The Pacifier was bad, wait until you get a look at Bloodshot, his latest stinker. Calling this turd bad is an understatement. If I could have walked out, I would have. Perhaps the story sounds good on paper: Diesel is a super-powered, unstoppable soldier who is out for revenge. Could […]
The Way Back, Ben Affleck’s new film, is without a doubt, the best work he’s ever done. Affleck’s new film in a lot of ways is more than just a movie. It’s a comeback of one of Hollywood’s most polarizing actors. It’s also not flashy, like Batman or Argo. Affleck has never been rawer in […]
Jordan Ta’amu showed why he is the face of the St. Louis Battlehawks franchise on Saturday. Ta’amu used his arm and legs, carrying St. Louis to a 23-16 win over Seattle. St. Louis improved to 3-1 on the season, 2-0 at home, while Seattle dropped to 1-3. Ta’amu credited the entire offense with the victory. […]
I must admit that I was a skeptic going into The Invisible Man, the new film directed by Leigh Whannell, starring Elizabeth Moss. Whannell and Moss take no prisoners in the remake, as both the director and actress know how to create suspense. Moss carries the film by herself for a majority of the 2-hours […]
The crowd was raucous and ready for the return of football as the St. Louis BattleHawks took the field Sunday for their first-ever home game in The Dome at America’s Center. One of the XFL’s top teams didn’t disappoint. St. Louis went on to easily win the game over the New York Guardians, 29-9, improving […]
