Noisy Liam Neeson movie should have its driver’s license revoked. Although “Retribution” is the American remake of a Spanish film called “El desconocido,” I still think it wants to go for “Speed,” […]
Retribution
Ahsoka
Rosario Dawson uses the force with attitude and style. Ahsoka Tano is the former Jedi Padawan and apprentice to Anakin Skywalker. You know, before he went to the Dark Side and became […]

Oppenheimer
The most explosive movie of the year so far. Christopher Nolan has proven himself to be one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. One who knows the stakes, pushes himself to […]
