A Good Day to Die Hard, an Action Thriller (Film Review)






Stand Up Guys, Kick-it One More Time (Film Review)


The film Stand Up Guys being released this weekend in theaters has a nice touch. It brings together three of the most revered stars in film emulating some of their past acting gigs.

Warm Bodies, Not Your Average Love Story (Film Review)
