REVIEW: GHOSTBUSTERS (2016)
The Ghostbusters are back, or should I say rebooted, in this ghoulish comedy from Paul Feig. Ghostbusters is pretty straight forward compared to the last two original films, starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis. However, this time the Ghostbusters are women, and this time, it’s as if the original Ghostbusters don’t exist. But … Continue reading REVIEW: GHOSTBUSTERS (2016)
REVIEW: THE SHALLOWS
Blake Lively takes us on a shark thriller in the new film, The Shallows. But how will this film compare to the other “shark movies” of the past? The Shallows tells the story of a young girl named, Sally, played by Blake Lively, who after surfing in the deep waters, is forced to become stranded … Continue reading REVIEW: THE SHALLOWS
REVIEW: THE NEON DEMON
Inspired by films such as Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, The Neon Demon takes a sadistic look at the fashion industry. Let me start this review by stating that this is a Nicolas Winding Refn film. If you don’t know who Refn is, then I would advise you to watch his previous films (Bronson, … Continue reading REVIEW: THE NEON DEMON
REVIEW: INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE
Independence Day: Resurgence marks 20 years since we first kicked some alien butt. As the aliens return for this epic sequel, will this film be victorious, or be obliterated by audiences?

REVIEW: CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
Funny men, Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson, team up for a buddy cop movie which is nowhere near as funny as the trailer. The marketing for Central Intelligence was strong. Trailers showing clips that were hilariously funny, encouraged me to go see this. Though some scenes were funny, this film had me staring at Dwayne … Continue reading REVIEW: CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE

REVIEW: POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING
Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping is the newest project from The Lonely Island, or most famously known as the musical parody group that SNL alum, Andy Samberg, belongs to. After the humorless film 7 Days in Hell, which aired appropriately on HBO, I was not looking forward to another Samberg mockumentary. However, Popstar brings a … Continue reading REVIEW: POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING
REVIEW: NOW YOU SEE ME 2
Now You See Me 2, is the sequel to 2013’s magical film, Now You See Me. Once again we are watching The Four Horsemen taking on yet another magical heist. I was a fan of 2013’s Now You See Me. Yes, it does become a little far-fetched as the plethora of tricks become apparent. But … Continue reading REVIEW: NOW YOU SEE ME 2
REVIEW: WARCRAFT
Warcraft brings us the widely popular PC game to a live-action film. It is apparent, through the acting and visual effects, that Warcraft lacked what it takes to be an entertaining film. Warcraft tells about the ongoing fights between both humans and Orcs. As the Orcs world is being destroyed, they decide to come through … Continue reading REVIEW: WARCRAFT
