MOVIE REVIEW: ‘The Runner’ Won’t Win Any Awards
August 11th, 2015 James Shotwell Film: The Runner Starring: Nicolas Cage, Peter Fonda Directed by: Austin Stark Despite a strong performance from Nicolas Cage, The Runner fails to capture the tension and excitement of political turmoil in an original light. The Runner is a rare breed of film that places fictional characters amidst real world tragedies to tell a made-up […]

MOVIE REVIEW: ‘Ricki And The Flash’ Trumps Formula With Poignant Chords
August 11th, 2015 Sam Cohen Film: Ricki and the Flash Starring: Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, Mamie Gummer, Sebastian Stan Directed by: Jonathan Demme It was either white picket fences and an idyllic family life or a chance at rock stardom for Ricki Rendazzo (Meryl Streep). That was 20 or so years ago when she chose the latter. Now, she’s crooning […]
MOVIE REVIEW: ‘Fantastic Four’ Is A Moviegoer’s Nightmare
August 7th, 2015 James Shotwell Film: Fantastic Four Starring: Miles Teller, Kate Mara Directed by: Josh Trank Despite a strong cast and iconic source material, Josh Trank’s take on Fantastic Four is one of the worst superhero films ever made. The story is simple enough. After being discovered at his high school science fair, Reed Richards is enrolled in a […]

MOVIE REVIEW: ‘Listen To Me Marlon’ Is The Must-See Doc Of 2015
August 7th, 2015 James Shotwell Film: Listen To Me Marlon Starring: Marlon Brando Directed by: Stevan Riley I have never in my life experienced a film as magically, yet meticulously put together as Listen To Me Marlon.

MOVIE REVIEW: ‘Southpaw’ Can’t Land A Punch
August 3rd, 2015 James Shotwell Film: Southpaw Starring: Jake Gyllenhall Directed by: Antoine Fuqua Despite two incredible fights that serve as bookends to the story, Southpaw is a messy boxing film that never quite finds its groove. There are very few story elements at play in Southpaw that you haven’t seen at least a few times before, typically in other […]

July 29th, 2015 Sam Cohen Film: Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation Starring: Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson, Jeremy Renner Directed by: Christopher McQuarrie As you may have seen in the trailers, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation sports the most dangerous stunt yet: Tom Cruise hanging from the side of a cargo plane as it takes off. No matter how silly that […]
