Irresistible

The political climate in the United States has been more volatile than I have ever seen before. Potential candidates are spending millions and millions of dollars to win any election they can and it honestly seems to be getting out of control as the country becomes more divided. But where does that leave the small-town folks who just wa... Read More

Spike Lee (Do the Right Thing) has a truly powerful voice which translates into his storytelling and directing style. He generally gravitates towards topics that highlight the injustices suffered by African-Americans and his films are often polarizing. Four of his movies, Do the Right Thing, Malcolm X, 4Little Girls and She's Gotta Have... Read More

The King of Staten Island

The name Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-old Virgin) has become synonymous with successful, comedic films in Hollywood. Pete Davidson (The Dirt) started his career in the comedy club scene and moved up to become a regular on Saturday Night Live.

The High Note

(Alyn Darnay) 29/05/2020 08:37 EDT
You rarely hear me fawning over a movie, but when I finally get the opportunity to review a really enjoyable film, well, it's just Great. "The High Note" is such a film. It hits all the right "Notes". It doesn't take itself too seriously, it isn't too heavy, or preachy, or over-wroth with emotion, it just slides right into that ... Read More

The High Note

The glamorous world of the Los Angeles music scene isn't all it's cracked up to be. Just ask all the celebrities' personal assistants.

Spaceship Earth

As a Floridian, when one hears the words Spaceship Earth one immediately thinks of the big, round golf ball that sits at the entrance of Epcot Center. Looming eighteen stories high, it greets excited visitors to an amusement park full of wonder and innovation with an international flair. However, in this case, Spaceship Earth refe... Read More

Trolls World Tour

They're colorful, they're bright, they're furry, they love to sing and dance and…they fart glitter. Yes, that's right, Universal Studios/DreamWorks Animation is once again bringing their beloved Trolls back for a second round. Poppy (Anna Kendrick; Pitch Perfect), Branch (Justin Timberlake; In Time) and the rest o... Read More

Call of The Wild

Jack London spent almost a year in the Canadian Yukon during the Klondike Goldrush. While there he watched as dog sleds raced through the harsh terrain and weather in an effort to get their masters' to the gold before anyone else.
