Review: THE INTERN
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Written and directed by Nancy Meyers (It’s Complicated, The Holiday), The Intern initially struck me as a sappy, overly saccharine movie attempting to make women cry and some men cringe in their seats. Well, at least that was my impression of the promos I had seen… Continue reading Review: THE INTERN
Review: HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 2
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) Maybe Adam Sandler is better suited for children’s movies. Well, I have to say his work in family animated fare works a hell of a lot better than his attempts at raucous comedy.

Review: BLACK MASS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) After a few movie misteps (The Lone Ranger, Transcendence, Mortdecai), Johnny Depp is back in top form and is “badder” than ever. Based on the true story of Boston criminal James “Whitey” Bulger, Black Mass will definitely please fans of the gangster genre and will certainly… Continue reading Review: BLACK MASS
