Ticket To Paradise (Blu-ray Review)

Does star power still carry weight these days? The movie theater world is dominated by fast-paced, epic-length superhero fare.  Comedies are almost non-existent, and even worse, romantic comedies, once a source of great box office strength, are like the cinematic dinosaur.  What’s sad, is that these movies were often enduring, sweet, and easy to revisit.  […]

This ‘Money Monster’ Is Pretty Tame (Movie Review)

As nice as it may be to champion an original thriller with big movie stars and some relevant themes, Money Monster doesn’t do much to challenge the audience. That’s not necessarily required, but when a studio has the audacity to title a film Money Monster, you should be expecting more bite. There is a somewhat […]
