Movie Review: ‘Viper Club’ Starring Susan Sarandon, Matt Bomer, Lola Kirke
Back in 2000, when Russell Crowe was at his most marketable, he co-starred with Meg Ryan in an action-drama called Proof of Life. It was a fairly straightforward movie, but the premise was relatively unique. Meg’s husband (David Morse) was kidnapped by terrorists, who demanded a monstrous ransom for his release. Crowe played a negotiator […]
Movie Review: ‘Tammy’ Starring Melissa McCarthy, Susan Sarandon, Allison Janney
It seems like you either love or hate Melissa McCarthy. Her latest film, Tammy, will do nothing to change that. Tammy is a movie that looks like it is nothing special, just more of McCarthy’s raunchy act that she has been cashing in on since Bridesmaids. In reality, Tammy is a heartfelt, feel good comedy, […]

Movie Review: ‘Cloud Atlas’ Starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Sturgess, James D’Arcy
You would never know by watching the trailers or scrolling through stills, but Cloud Atlas is the most expensive independent film ever made. When you think of indie films, you generally don’t think of big budgets, jaw dropping visuals, and A-list actors like Tom Hanks and Halle Berry. But then again, you generally don’t have the directors of The Matrix behind […]

Movie Review: ‘Arbitrage’ Pays High Dividends
Sometimes, you just gotta like the bad guy. Now, I generally root for the “good guy,” but sometimes there are just instances where you can’t help but enjoy the bad guy more. Perhaps they’re not necessarily bad, per se, or they’re just so much more interesting than any of the good guys. Many of my […]

Movie Review: ‘Jeff, Who Lives at Home’ Starring Jason Segel, Ed Helms, Susan Sarandon
There’s a point in the movie Van Wilder at which the eponymous character is at a formal gathering and is explaining his reasoning behind staying in school for seven years, claiming he’s still searching for that “dare to be great situation.” At that point, the snide antagonist responds, “Maybe you should start looking for that dare-to-be-employed […]
