Aaron Sorkin struck lightning in a bottle when he created the beloved series The West Wing. Fast paced, bitingly funny and surprisingly touching, the show was a universal hit for its seven seasons. A few ebbs and flows in the seasons after Sorkin left, the show still stood strong until its end in 2006. Now celebrating […]
One of the more refreshing releases of 2023 was Gareth Edward’s original science fiction fantasy film, The Creator. Like it or not, the prospect of getting some big scale, ideological special effects sci-fi offerings playing in theaters feels like a win and triumph just in getting there. The film received solid reviews, but unfortunately did […]
When I saw the trailer for Drop Dead Gorgeous and then once the film released in 1999, later on home video, I just poked my nose up and said “nah!” and carried on. Young, adolescent, ignorant and stupid as I was in my youth as a “film lover” and one studying the art. I had […]
Bombshell is a film where I initially only showed up for because of the 3 leading women, most notably Harley Quinn…err I mean Margot Robbie. I pretty much will see anything with her nowadays, but I digress. Other than that I had originally thought there was really no reason for me to watch Bombshell. I […]
2019 saw the return of one of the first American families of horror; The Addams Family (The other being The Munsters). It marked their return after a 21 years absence (Canadian TV Show The New Addams Family and direct-to-video sequel Addams Family Reunion both in 1998), and the first feature film in theaters since 1993’s […]
Bombshell is a film I’m only here for because of the 3 leading women, most notably Harley Quinn…err I mean Margot Robbie. I pretty much will see anything with her nowadays, but I digress. Other than that I had originally thought there was really no reason for me to be here. While I am totally […]
Blumhouse for the better and for the worse, is one of the studios I currently admire most in the realm of mainstream Hollywood wide release commercial films. They keep their budgets tight, low and aren’t afraid to take chances when the time is right. Jason Blum himself seems to have an ear to the crowd […]
I, Tonya was a film I was dying to see ever since it was first announced. It killed me to see fellow Californians have access to it nearly a month before myself in crappy Austin, TX. I was drawn to this movie not only because of my affinity for Margot Robbie as the mischievous Harley […]
As Walking Dead‘s Negan would say “oh shiz.” It’s that time of year again that I dread the most. It’s colder. It’s more expensive because of the holidays. And worse of all I have to publicly proclaim which film titles I liked the most. I sound like a broken record, but this year more than […]
The year is closing down, but that doesn’t mean the indie film fare train is in anyway starting to cinematically slow down. (Aka there is life besides end of year Oscar fare film freaks!) Teen detective stories, road racing outings, wild bio-pics, women in the wasteland and cheaters getting their due all make up the […]
Before I begin this 4K Ultra HD review I wanted to give a big shout out to all my new Facebook friends on the 4K Ultra HD Home Cinema Group (join all the conversations here) for their support. So let’s get down to business now. The Girl on the Train instantly had two things going for […]
The Girl on the Train instantly had two things going for it within my brain. It features two actresses that will get me in the theater no matter what the film’s subject matter is about. I’m respectfully talking Emily Blunt and Rebecca Ferguson. Ever since Edge of Tomorrow, Sicario and Mission Impossible Rogue Nation I’m a sucker for both of them. […]
Here’s one I saw in the theaters and I liked quite a bit. So this is what it’s all about. Questioning everything she knows, a woman must face her terrifying past in the wake of a darkly mysterious event to piece together the truth in the provocative thriller, The Girl on the Train. Based on USA TODAY’s 2015 […]
As most probably expected, Finding Dory became the year’s biggest film this summer. Following one of Disney/Pixar’s most successful, beloved and heralded films of all time was sort of a no-brainer in the wondering of who’s going to go see it. This time they would focus on the fish with the short term memory loss, […]

Part of me would like to think The Girl on the Train is in on the joke. Here’s a film that no doubt understands how silly its story is, but happily lets the three main female cast members channel plenty of energy to provide strong performances. It manages to feature men these women obsess over, […]

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is a “peculiar” name in its own right, don’t you think? So here’s the deal. There’s a guy I know in my work/personal life that has been talking about this film for over a year now. He seems to be quite the movie connoisseur, but here’s the kicker. He […]
