Movie Review: LIKE A BOSS Starring Rose Byrne, Tiffany Haddish, Salma Hayek
It’s January, and that means movie theatres are bombarded with the bottom of the barrel films that movie distribution companies throw out like all the crappy Christmas decorations still hanging after the holidays.

Movie Review: ‘Jumanji: The Next Level’ Starring; Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black
I will admit that when I heard a sequel was being developed to the beloved 1995 Robin Williams classic, “Jumanji,” I was skeptical. Luckily, a great cast featuring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Jack Black, and Kevin Hart, along with a great script, carried the film to a $1 billion global box office haul. So, it […]

Concert Review: Son Volt at Delmar Hall
By Carla Scuzzo A sellout crowd welcomed Son Volt to Delmar Hall on Saturday night, November 23rd. Jay Farrar was in typical form – quiet and rather sullen.

Movie Review: ‘A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,’ Starring; Tom Hanks
Growing up, I didn’t have cable. While other kids got to watch Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, I made do with broadcast channels.

Movie Review: ‘21 Bridges,’ Starring; Chadwick Boseman
I usually try to open my movie reviews with a fun intro or clever anecdote, but I’m coming up with a complete blank for 21 Bridges. I was pretty excited for this movie. Chadwick Boseman, the Russo brothers producing, and the trailer for the movie made it seem like it’d be a fantastic manhunt thriller. […]
Movie Review: ‘The Irishman,’ Starring; Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino
Martin Scorcese is one of the great American directors. His film resume includes ‘Goodfellas,’ ‘Casino,’ ‘The Departed,’ and ‘Wolf of Wall Street,’ all of which are in my top 10 favorite films of all time. Pair him with Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci and his films are almost guaranteed to be instant classics. The new […]
Movie Review: Frozen 2, Starring: Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel
Ice, ice baby. It’s that time again. It’s been six years since the surprise, Oscar winning hit Frozen was released. Just when you thought you may have gotten far enough away from the earworm that was the film’s anthem, “Let It Go,” the much anticipated Frozen 2 is ice skating it’s way into theaters this weekend for […]
Concert Review: Wilco wows crowd at Fox Theatre
By Bob O’ Mahony and Carla Scuzzo A familiar crowd was warmed up by local legends, the Bottle Rockets, playing the Fox for the first time in some 22 years. The Bottle Rockets were from the same alt-country period of the St. Louis music scene, sometime working, sometimes playing together. They did a well put […]
