Man, these number movies these days are really inspiring and smart. “The Wolf of Wall Street” spent our money on cocaine and sex; “The Accountant” managed to combine Autism, math, and criminals […]
The Zookeeper’s Wife
I assume older audiences will be seeing “The Zookeeper’s Wife,” and why wouldn’t they? WWII dramas (with or without battles) manage to tell such fascinating and yet true stories, and Jessica Chastain […]
Personal Shopper
So far, once a month in 2017, a horror/thriller movie surprises you when you least expect it. In January, we had “Split,” which had James McAvoy showing off many personalities, and then […]

Hacksaw Ridge
As far I know, most people would probably avoid “Hacksaw Ridge,” Mel Gibson’s first directing film in years, because of how the actor has gone downhill. His last two acting jobs, “Machete […]
