Review: HUSTLERS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Loosely based on the New York magazine article by Jessica Pressler, The Hustlers at Scores, Hustlers the film follows an all too familiar formula when it comes to a true crime story.

Review: PROMISE AT DAWN
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) A single mother struggles to provide her son with the best and most successful life possible. Now I know this simple synopsis sounds rather cliche and common in cinema now. However, considering that the story takes place between the 1920s and 1950s makes this a more… Continue reading Review: PROMISE AT DAWN
SXSW 2019 Review: “Raise Hell: The Life and Times of Molly Ivins”
By Liz Lopez Rating: A Director Janice Engel’s feature documentary was screened during SXSW a few months ago and is easily one of my favorites from this year’s festival. I am not the only one to think so, as this film is an Audience Award Winner in the Festival Favorites category. Engel and Monique Zavistovski… Continue reading SXSW 2019 Review: “Raise Hell: The Life and Times of Molly Ivins”
Review: BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) So far, it has been a great year for inspirational, feel-good cinema. And considering that the real world has taken some scary and disturbing turns in the past few years, maybe crowd-pleasing cinema is just what the doctor has ordered. Comedic actress Jillian Bell gets her… Continue reading Review: BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON
Review: AFTER THE WEDDING
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Based on Suzanne Bier’s Danish film Efter brylluppet, After the Wedding has plenty of stong, compelling material, but its execution and presentation gets bogged down with indulgent melodrama and a third act and epilogue that play out rather flatly. I suppose an argument could be made… Continue reading Review: AFTER THE WEDDING

Critica De Cine: ANGEL HAS FALLEN
Por Liz Lopez Rating: C+ Si le ha gustado las películas “Olympus has Fallen” (2013) y “London has Fallen” (2016), entonces es muy posible que anticipe ver la tercera en esta instalación de películas de acción, aun ser un poco predecible el guion y los personajes. El director, Ric Roman Waugh escribió el guion en… Continue reading Critica De Cine: ANGEL HAS FALLEN
Review: ANGEL HAS FALLEN
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) If anyone had asked me six years ago that I will enjoy the two sequels to Olympus Has Fallen, I would have thought them insane. Even though the films in this franchise franchise often have dumb and silly elements, they do have likable characters, incendiary action… Continue reading Review: ANGEL HAS FALLEN
