X-Men: Dark Phoenix (4K UHD Blu-ray Review)

Sharpen Your Poker Skills By Playing ‘Molly’s Game (Movie Review)

I must have a very simple mind.  Alright, I definitely do.  When I first saw the trailer for Molly’s Game I just didn’t get it.  My fiancee had to explain it to me.  Isn’t that sad?  Ha ha.  I blame it on exhaustion and stress from work.  However, after subsequent viewings of it and a […]
