“Guardians of the Galaxy” a MARVEL’ous Adventure (Film Review)

Flashy, perilous and action-packed, the movie, Guardians of the Galaxy, plows into theaters this weekend and it’s good.  Not even 10 minutes into the film and the roller coaster ride begins in this space adventure battleground for control of the universe.  Well-acted and directed, the movie laces eye-popping CGI with fine camerawork drawing the viewer […]

“Lucy” A Non-stop Action-thriller (Film Review)

  Out of nowhere comes Lucy a wild ride of mind over matter from Writer/Director Luc Besson.  This cunning thriller opens with excitement and never stops the action to the very end. It’s my idea of a true Sci-Fi thriller that tantalizes your brain with possibilities beyond belief, and then takes you even further with […]

“Boyhood” A Study of Growing Pains (Film Review)

Not many or any of the filmmakers that have made films in my lifetime have ever taken a chance on a production that would take 12 years in the making. No, Boyhood is not one of those blockbuster films that takes years of animation, or documentaries that have a lot of structure or even Mother […]

“Sex Tape” an Adults Only Comedy (Film Review)

It’s a wild romp of love making in the newest hard R film, Sex Tape.  The funny little comedy shows what can happen when you find yourself losing track of a personal filming of a bedroom escapade.  Strictly for adults, the voyeuristic adventure is nicely directed and acted. If you do not blush easily, are […]

BACK TO THE FUTURE Appears in Yet Another Commercial (and it’s pretty cool!)

As we approach 2015, there doesn’t seem to be any waning in the interest and callbacks to the Back to the Future franchise. Every six months or so, a reference shows up in commercials on TV, online, or in the movies – from hocking Nike shoes, using fake Hoverboards in joke videos, to a cameo in […]

DAWN PLANET APES poster

“Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” a Fight for Justice (Film Review)

  If you are looking for action and drama this summer, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes has both.  The science fiction adventure does a terrific job of depicting the apes with realism and their ongoing battle with the humans a thrill ride.  Fine acting, CGI/Cinematography and directing make this one sequel you will […]
