SAVAGES rev 7-6-12

Savages, Welcome to Drug Wars (Film Review)

If you are looking for gut wrenching excitement in a movie with a brilliant cast and a creative storyline then choose Savages, this year’s most powerful action filled drama to date.  Intense and intriguing, the film has scenes so extreme that I felt myself gripping the theatre arm rests. If you think the drug wars […]

Greatest Jerks of the Silver Screen: Troy Perkins from The Goonies (1985)

The Goonies – as you must already know- is a fantastic 80’s movie about a group of misfits who brave an underground labyrinth of horrors for pirate treasure.

Magic Mike, Naked Chests with Bare Storyline (Film Review)

Bare bods and fast music can’t save Magic Mike.  Even if the ladies think they are being entertained, it’s all a façade to cash in on a voyeuristic business that has risen from the sexually charged 90’s.  It may be a take on Tatum’s early teen romp to fill his pockets, but the actor did […]
