You Were Never Really Here
Let’s take a break from the whole Ad game a bit, and check out “Your Were Never Really Here,” a bold, thrilling, and visionary drama about a hitman with a […]
Gemini
What you want out of a good murder mystery is the key elements you need to help solve it-the characters, the items, and the explanation of their whereabouts at the […]
Vertigo
Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 mystery thriller “Vertigo” has it all-fears, romance, lies, twists, obsession, and temptations. I’ve watched it for the first time, as part of its 60th Anniversary, and I […]
Game Night
There’s a saying: “You’re smarter than you look,” and that was my reaction towards “Game Night.” I was on the fence with the trailers, especially with how it’s difficult finding […]
The Commuter
I’m a big fan of Liam Neeson, and while waiting in line for the 7PM screening of “The Commuter,” I was talking with a guy about Neeson’s previous non-action films […]
Murder on the Orient Express
Kenneth Branagh’s version of “Murder on the Orient Express” isn’t as bad as NJ Transit, but it does make a little too many breaks. What I’m implying is that as […]
Wonderstruck
Director Todd Haynes’s latest Indie “Wonderstruck” is an interesting splice between a coming-of-age story and a silent movie. Based on the book by Brian Selznick, who also wrote the screenplay, […]

Wind River
Three years in a row, Taylor Sheridan has written such excellent screenplays for “Sicario,” “Hell or High Water,” and now this year, he has both written and directed “Wind River.” […]
Atomic Blonde
"Atomic Blonde" is an R-rated action movie, which cracks skulls and keeps you in your seat. Almost every scene features Charlize Theron playing the female "John Wick," as she beats […]
It Comes at Night
“It Comes at Night” is a horror movie that doesn’t rely on jumpscares to tell a story. Its timing and vulnerability is equal to “Get Out” or “Split,” both made […]
My Cousin Rachel
This second take on Daphne Du Maurier’s novel isn’t as promising as the trailers promised, but “My Cousin Rachel” does offer a lot of brave acting, beautiful locations, and nice […]
The Dinner
Like “Manchester by the Sea,” “The Dinner” mixes together the past and the present in order to explain the story; and like “Norman,” it also features a charming performance from […]
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, […]
Get Out
Looking for the right kind of horror and mystery, which is often boring or tainted these days, you sit through “Get Out,” wondering at the beginning what is the point […]
