The Martian

Allison Rose | Jan 12, 2016

There is so much The Martian does right it’s no wonder it is a possible Oscar contender.

Sinister 2

Leonard Buccellato | Jan 12, 2016

The premise of these films is the “aesthetic observance of violence… as well as the use of rituals” to summon the evil presence of the Bughuul or boogeyman.

The Visit

Emily Hazlett | Jan 11, 2016

While there are some scary moments in the film, overall, the movie is more of a comedy than a thriller. The surprise ending had me on the edge of my seat but the other 83, give or take a few, minutes were quite drab.

We Are Your Friends

Paul Kates | Jan 11, 2016

"Are we ever gonna be better than this?", Cole screams from the mic. Well, the truth is, probably not. We are Your Friends isn't going to be up for any of the major awards this season, but like so many films made in this genre, it does have the feel-good factor.

The Transporter: Refueled

Allison Rose | Jan 06, 2016

Sadly, sitting through Transporter: Refueled to the end was a painful experience. The story is boring, the acting is mediocre for the most part, and the fight scenes are ridiculously unrealistic.

The Green Inferno

Leonard Buccellato | Jan 05, 2016

The Green Inferno has many valid points to make, not least of which, about the nature of arm-chair protesters and how their need to “Trend” is more important than the subjects about which they are protesting about.

X-Files: The Collector's Set

Allison Rose | Jan 04, 2016

Sit back and relive the past, refresh your memories and enjoy what you loved most about The X-Files once again.

Concussion

Allison Rose | Dec 24, 2015

Will Smith is fantastic as Omalu, transforming himself into the soft-spoken, egotistical, yet vigilant, Doctor. His performance is excellent as he morphs into the Nigerian who simply wants to do what is right.

Daddy's Home

Allison Rose | Dec 23, 2015

Will Ferrell's latest endeavor, Daddy’s Home, is more of the same mind numbing antics we have come to expect from him. I can only hope at some point someone has the common sense to stop hiring him.

Pan

Allison Rose | Dec 22, 2015

Presented in 1080p high definition video, the picture is very impressive with fantastic colors and extremely clear images. The 3D version of the film pops off the screen and add great depth to the presentation of the film.
