By Liz Lopez Rating: B- Many times when film fans read about a new movie with an inspirational, family friendly story, there is a tendency to turn and select other options at the theater. I was a tad skeptical about how the true story of a young athlete would unfold, and if it would hold… Continue reading Review: 23 BLAST

Review: BIRDMAN OR (THE UNEXPECTED VIRTUE OF IGNORANCE)
By Mark Saldana Rating: 4 (Out of 4 Stars) Like one of Tony Stark’s Jericho missiles, the new film by writer/director Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu (Babel, Amores Perros) launches a razor-sharp satire that splits up and decimates all of its intended targets. That is not to say that there is no love involved in this film. Iñárritu dishes… Continue reading Review: BIRDMAN OR (THE UNEXPECTED VIRTUE OF IGNORANCE)
Review: OUIJA

To say this movie is different is an understatement. At its… Continue reading Review: BIRDMAN OR (THE UNEXPECTED VIRTUE OF IGNORANCE)
Review: JOHN WICK
By Laurie Coker Rating: B- Going into Keanu Reeves’ return to screen film John Wick, I knew what to expect. The film’s trailer spells out the premise clearly, and while I am not a hardcore fan of bang, bang, revenge thrillers, I am a fan of Reeves. The film adds little to the genre in… Continue reading Review: JOHN WICK
