Review: DESPICABLE ME 2
By Renee’ Collins Rating: 4.5 (Out 0f 5 Reels) I truly enjoyed the first Despicable Me film and looked forward to seeing the latest installment.

Review: THE HEAT
By Mark Saldana Rating: 2.5 (Out of 4 Stars) Bridesmaids director Paul Feig tackles a buddy-cop comedy bringing back his Bridesmaids break-out star Melissa McCarthy, but the results are a bit mixed. Actually, this comes as a relief to me as I felt somewhat burned by how bad McCarthy’s Identity Thief turned out. On… Continue reading Review: THE HEAT
