Along with The Wood (also starring Taye Diggs), the all-black romantic-comedy-drama scene was still a solid subset of films around this time, […]

I’m sorry, but Wolverine has nothing on Hugh Jackman’s character here in Prisoners. Whether or not you believe in his twisted form of justice or not is your problem.

It could have been a number of different things, including a thrilling war-time action/adventure or a moving depiction of the turmoil faced by African American pilots during wartime, as they had to prove themselves in the face of segregation. The film actually […]
