How Does THE BATMAN Compare to Previous Versions of The Caped Crusader?
Comparisons are inevitable. Be it athletes (MJ vs. LeBron), franchises (Star Trek vs. Star Wars), music, TV, it’s almost in our nature to take two objects and see how they stack up against each other. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with comparison if you’re able to be objective enough. When Christopher Nolan released Batman […]
Movie Review: ‘Ford v Ferrari’ Starring Christian Bale, Matt Damon, Jon Bernthal
While the cars in Ford v Ferrari stand out and ultimately rule the road, lead actor Christian Bale is one of the main reasons to see the new film. Bale is seemingly unstoppable and once again he proves that he is without a question, the top actor in Hollywood. Bale stars as Ken Miles, an […]
Film Review: ‘Hostiles’ Starring: Christian Bale, Wes Studi, Rosamund Pike
Hostiles is one of those films that is sometimes hard to watch, but you won’t be able to turn away. Riveting performances from great actors overcome the bleak, hopelessness of the film.

Movie Review: ‘American Hustle’ Starring Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence
Director David O. Russel is certainly on a winning streak after The Fighter (2010) and Silver Linings Playbook (2012). Then again, looking back on his career, he’s never really made a bad film. Three Kings (1999) was met with almost unanimous praise from critics, and I Heart Huckabees (2004) is one of my favorite comedies […]
