Review: ZOMBIELAND: DOUBLE TAP
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) It has been ten years since the first Zombieland hit theaters and maybe that was just the right amount of time to give fans the sequel they deserve. The first movie gave audiences a witty and inventive take on the genre, and though the sequel doesn’t… Continue reading Review: ZOMBIELAND: DOUBLE TAP
Review: MALEFICENT: MISTRESS OF EVIL
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2.5 (Out of 4 Stars) This is the same exact rating that I gave the first Maleficent movie. And it is for mainly the same reasons, that I found this second installment somewhat dull. Maleficent, the “evil” fay from the Sleeping Beauty story just isn’t developed or portrayed in any truly… Continue reading Review: MALEFICENT: MISTRESS OF EVIL
Review: GEMINI MAN
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2.5 (Out of 4 Stars) Though it has taken a long journey to get here, Gemini Man, for better or worse is now in theaters. On the plus side, the film features an inventive science fiction premise, but on the negative end, also features a somewhat predictable plot. In addition director… Continue reading Review: GEMINI MAN

Review: LUCY IN THE SKY
By Liz Lopez Rating: C+ Noah Hawley (“Legion” and “Fargo” TV series) makes his feature directing debut with “Lucy In the Sky,” based on a screenplay he wrote with Brian C. Brown and Elliott DiGuiseppi and despite any revisions he made to the script, the storytelling is still lacking. This is sad to say, but… Continue reading Review: LUCY IN THE SKY
Fantastic Fest 2019 Review: THE DEEPER YOU DIG
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) From writers/directors/actors Toby Poser and John Adams comes a chilling thriller which basically takes elements from Poe’s The Tell-Tale Heart and sets it in modern times. Thought it isn’t an exact adaptation, Poser and Adams, instead, take the theme of guilt and utilizes it to tell… Continue reading Fantastic Fest 2019 Review: THE DEEPER YOU DIG
