Review: RUNNER RUNNER

Savannah Wood Grade: C- With a few notable exceptions (Oceans Eleven and Casino Royale, to name a few), gambling films have never held any place of honor in my heart. I’ve heard enough stories about overconfident prodigies scamming their way into the big leagues (and the big bucks) enough times that I feel sated enough… Continue reading Review: RUNNER RUNNER

Review: RUNNER, RUNNER

By Laurie Coker Rating: C- Watching Runner, Runner, I waited for someone or something to run, and it never happened – no characters, no scary animals, no speedy cars and especially not the storyline.

Writer/director Alfonso Cuarón, the acclaimed filmmaker of movies Children of Men and Y Tu Mamá También, has made an incredible movie which tells a… Continue reading Review: GRAVITY

Review: RUNNER RUNNER

By Mark Saldaña  Rating: 3 (Out of 4 Stars) After seeing a trailer for this movie, I suspected that the film would be a typical morality tale of the evils of greed and yes this is exactly the case. The plot and story have little to offer audiences in terms of originality.  Similar themes and… Continue reading Review: RUNNER RUNNER
