Disney is Disney because nobody does what they do like them, and ‘McFarland USA’ is the perfect example. Set in the agricultural center of California in 1987, ‘McFarland USA’ is formulaic and predictable, but in all the right ways. A white teacher hilariously and literally called Jim White (Kevin Costner) with a rough past moves […]
I’m kind of bittersweet in regards to this one. On one hand I am looking forward to finally seeing this one after missing all the press screenings for it, but I know it’s going to make me very homesick. It seems like when I left Cleveland last year it all the sudden began thriving. Who […]
I’ve always been a pretty solid fan of the Jack Ryan franchise. The first one I saw was Clear And Present Danger, where some friends and I just randomly went to a movie on an afternoon and saw it. It was like my first super adult type movie I think I saw in the theater […]
I missed 3 Days to Kill in theaters but all I knew was that it was directed by McG and co-written/produced by Luc Besson, and it starred Kevin Costner. The trailers looked good enough but I was not able to make it in time before the film left theaters. Now I have the Blu-ray and have finally […]
So tell me. If a movie is billed like the following, wouldn’t you want a chance at winning a free copy on the Blu-ray format? “A stellar cast” (Jeffrey Lyons, Lyons Den Radio), including Oscar®winner Kevin Costner*, Oscar® nominee Hailee Steinfeld** and Amber Heard, lead this “undeniably entertaining” (Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter) action-thriller. Costner plays a daring […]
“A stellar cast” (Jeffrey Lyons, Lyons Den Radio), including Oscar®winner Kevin Costner*, Oscar® nominee Hailee Steinfeld** and Amber Heard, lead this “undeniably entertaining” (Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter) action-thriller. Costner plays a daring International spy with lethal skills and a hard-earned reputation for tackling the most dangerous missions imaginable. But when a seductive CIA operative (Heard) makes […]
Remember that Jack Ryan reboot that came out earlier in the year? Well, its coming to Blu-ray this summer. Its was met with a yawn by critics, but I’m still interested to see it. Today, Paramount has unveiled the release date and extras that will be coming with the Blu-ray. Also, today is the day […]
Does the world need another Jack Ryan? The character, created by writer Tom Clancy, has never quite taken off, despite their now being five films that feature him. The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, and Clear and Present Danger are solid spy thrillers/procedurals, but are not 90s films that many seem to single out […]
When I first found out they were attempting to go down the road of reinventing, rebranding and rebooting the legendary Superman franchise I just flat out laughed. However, if you think that was rude, you should have heard the expletives I said when I found out that Watchmen’s Zack Snyder was helming the project. I […]

We’ll always have Superman: The Movie. While Superman has arguably been the most recognizable superhero since his creation in 1938 and has remained a national icon, the 1978 film from Richard Donner seems to be the only time cinema had truly done its best to do him justice, let alone be the film that created […]
The day is finally upon us. They said it couldn’t be done. They said it was impossible. They said not in your wildest imagination. Okay. I admit it. I said all of this when I first found out they were attempting to go down the road of reinventing, rebranding and rebooting the legendary Superman franchise. […]
