Review: ENOUGH SAID
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) My biggest complaint about romantic comedies remains that the plots are all so cookie-cutter similar.

Two-time Academy Award winning director Ron Howard follows up on trailer promises with an… Continue reading Review: RUSH
Review: PRISONERS
By Mark Saldana Rating: 3.5 (Out of 4 Stars) Denis Villeneuve’s first major Hollywood feature film does adopt some of the usual tropes of crime thrillers, but at the same time, takes its time realistically developing its characters and story. Perhaps the film takes too much time meticulously examining almost every facet of its plot… Continue reading Review: PRISONERS
