I Care a Lot is a film that could easily be titled, “I Care a Lot… About Winning.” Society has become obsessed with the notion that, if you’re not winning – you’re losing. We’ve seen this play out in countless films over the years, like Wall Street, Scarface – pretty much any film where the […]
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: ‘The World’s End’ Starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Rosamund Pike
Let’s face it, we all have that one friend. The one who’s very hesitant to grow up, instead trying to live in the past, to the bewilderment of their friends, who’ve all landed successful careers and started families.

Movie Review: ‘Jack Reacher’ Starring Tom Cruise, Rosamund Pike, Richard Jenkins

Movie Review: ‘Wrath of the Titans’: Release the…Screenwriting Dept.
Unlike most people, I don’t hold a grudge against mindless action flicks. In fact, some of my favorite movies are epic action films that don’t require a whole lot of thought involved.
