Well, it’s clear the American trailers have done a disservice to Peter Rabbit. Based on the classic children’s stories created by Beatrix Potter, this 2018 cinematic interpretation has the appearance of…well, something like Smurfs. The actual film is much better. It’s no Paddington 2, which came out first and could bury this movie any day […]
The end of 2016 means an end to another year of great cinema. I had a tough time putting together this final list of films, as there was a strong selection to go through. Having watched over 175 films theatrically this year, it was fun to narrow things down to a final list of ten […]
It’s something of a shame that live-action adventure movies intended for a family audience are relegated to being the talk of film festivals, rather than something in demand by studios these days. Hunt for the Wilderpeople was met with much acclaim at Sundance this past winter and it deserves it, but it is almost as […]
In this touching comedy based on the acclaimed novel by Nick Hornby, A LONG WAY DOWN centers on four strangers (Pierce Brosnan, Toni Collette, Aaron Paul and Imogen Poots) who decide to end it all on New Year’s Eve. However, when they meet by chance on a London rooftop, they agree to halt their plans […]

Let’s face it. Escape Plan is the tag team hardcore action moviegoers of my generation have been dying to see happen on the big screen ever since the big guns of the 80’s. With the exception of Arnold’s brief scenes in The Expendables series, Escape Plan truly marks the first time Sylvester Stallone and Arnold […]

I feel like a broken record as of late when posting these announcements, but here is yet another flick that I regrettably missed in the theaters and have been anxiously awaiting for its Blu-ray release ever since. I could have made it to see it in the theaters, but by the time I was free […]
I was sitting with a pretty, young lady some 21 years ago, waiting to watch Indecent Proposal, when a preview came on for Jurassic Park. I can still see the raptor’s eye peering into the kitchen window just before it fogged from the dinosaurs breath. My date grabbed my arm tight and said, “we are definitely coming […]

Artificial Intelligence) and Golden Globe Nominee Sam Neill (The Vow, Daybreakers, Jurassic Park) bring “an elegant piece of gritty storytelling” (Complex.com) to life when THE HUNTER comes to Blu-ray and DVD on July 3 from Magnolia Home Entertainment.
