Even though the title character could possibly head… Continue reading Review: DOM HEMINGWAY

Review: DOM HEMINGWAY
By Renee’ Collins Rating: 3.5 (Out of 5 Reels) Being a fan of Jude Law’s previous work I thought I would give this movie a look.

Review: TRANSCENDENCE
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2 (Out of 4 Stars) This directorial debut for cinematographer Wally Pfister definitely disappoints, but this is mainly due to a script that has dull characters and sends multiple unclear messages. Considering that Pfister is quite the accomplished and talented cinematographer, the look of the film is gorgeous, but the overall… Continue reading Review: TRANSCENDENCE
Review: CUBAN FURY
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) All people, great or small, can dance and should not be ashamed to flaunt it.

Edgar Wright regular, Nick Frost, stars as Bruce Garrett, a man who, due to a… Continue reading Review: CUBAN FURY

Review: DRAFT DAY
By Laurie Coker Rating: D+ Kevin Costner looks amazing. After staying back a bit, he returns to another sports film, this time football, in Draft Day, a movie about the day every football player dreams of. I don’t like football, but I have been known to enjoy films about football. With that said – directed… Continue reading Review: DRAFT DAY
SXSW Review: JOE
By Laurie Coker Rating: A+ I have a list of people I’d like to meet and SXSW has often afforded me the opportunity to check names off my “Bucket List.” Sitting in on a press conference with Nicolas Cage, might not seem the same as meeting him, but it works for me. He and Tye… Continue reading SXSW Review: JOE
