By Savannah Wood Grade: B Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit revives the 90’s film series based on the novels of Tom Clancy, over ten years after the franchise’s last installment.

Review: JACK RYAN: SHADOW RECRUIT
By Laurie Coker Rating: C- At least three different actors have played Tom Clancy’s famed action hero Jack Ryan, and in the latest adaptation, Chris Pine (Star Trek) plays the title character.

I will give him more credit in that as a lead character in Ride Along,… Continue reading Review: RIDE ALONG
Review: THE NUT JOB
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2 (Out of 4 Stars) The Nut Job is another case where children will enjoy the silliness and the colorful visuals, but as for the adults escorting said children, they will probably wish that they hadn’t been dragged to the cinema to see a movie that could have been enjoyed at… Continue reading Review: THE NUT JOB

Review: HER
By Mark Saldana Rating: 4 (Out of 4 Stars) After watching this film, it struck me curious that the film received the Golden Globe nomination for Best Picture (Musical or Comedy). Then, the more thought I put into labeling this movie, it nearly became impossible to give it a label that truly satisfied me. Spike… Continue reading Review: HER
