Digital Copy Review: SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY
By Mark Saldana To be completely honest, I am rather slow to conforming with modern tech. For example, I have only owned two smart phones. The same goes for music and movie media.

Review: FAHRENHEIT 11/9

Review: LIFE ITSELF
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) After watching this film, it is so obvious that writer/director Dan Fogelman (This Is Us) absolutely adores the movie Pulp Fiction.
