2014 SXSW Review: SPACE STATION 76
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) As a fan of science fiction, as well as spoofs of the genre, this was one film I could not pass up at the festival. Also, because I was born in the 1970s and grew up watching Glen A. Larson’s Battlestar Galactica and Buck Rogers in… Continue reading 2014 SXSW Review: SPACE STATION 76
2014 SXSW Review: BEFORE I DISAPPEAR

2014 SXSW Review: FAULTS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2.5 (Out of 4 Stars) This year, some of the films of SXSW have had unusual and disappointing ending twists or reveals. Faults certainly belongs in that list.

2014 SXSW Review: PREDESTINATION
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2.5 (Out of 4 Stars) As far as time travel movies go, this one really had me instensely engaged. A sort of “Whodunnit, Why, and What the hell is really happening here?” Predestination works, until the answers to these questions are revealed. Ethan Hawke stars as a time traveling Temporal agent… Continue reading 2014 SXSW Review: PREDESTINATION
Review: BAD WORDS (SXSW)
By Laurie Coker Rating: C+/B- At SXSW, after seeing the opening night film, I rushed to the Zach Scott Topher theatre to see Bad Words, starring Jason Bateman, who appeared in person for red carpet and after film Q&A, but as luck would have it, a mistake by a rookie volunteer and some creative line… Continue reading Review: BAD WORDS (SXSW)
Review: CHEAP THRILLS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) Going into this movie, I had no idea what to expect. The fact that David Koechner usually plays goofy and cartoonish characters really threw me off. While this film does have its silly, lighter scenes, the film slowly devolves into a dark and disturbing commentary on human… Continue reading Review: CHEAP THRILLS
Review: DIVERGENT
By Renee’ Collins Rating: 3.5 (Out of 5 Reels) Although I thought this film was similar to others recently seen I still decided to have a look because of the trailer. In a world divided by factions based on virtues, Tris learns she’s Divergent and won’t fit in. When she discovers a plot to destroy… Continue reading Review: DIVERGENT
