It’s only one more week until Deadpool guys! Here’s what’s going to tide you over in the meantime. Spotlight SPOTLIGHT tells the riveting true story of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Boston Globe investigation that would rock the city and cause a crisis in one of the world’s oldest and most trusted institutions. When the newspaper’s tenacious “Spotlight” team of reporters delves …
Before we start with this week’s new releases, I’d like to take a moment to thank Kervyn for the sacrifices he makes for us. While Craig was getting all high-brow and cultured with this week’s Oscar-bait movie The Danish Girl, and Nick was gleefully (if not a little bit obsessively) salivating over The Hateful Eight, Kervyn had to sit through …
Damn it, this week really sucked. First Monday brought the news that David Bowie passed away, and now we’ve lost Alan Rickman as well. F**k cancer, am I right? Oh well, let’s see what’s on circuit this week to take our minds off of things. The Big Short When four outsiders saw what the big banks, media and government refused …
Well, I must say I’m glad that we’re back, but there is a lot to catch up on! For Kervyn, this meant feverishly posting about every cool trailer that came out while we didn’t have a website (Star Trek Beyond, The Legend of Tarzan and Independence Day: Resurgence to name but a few). For me, this meant having to put four …
Only two and a half more weeks until Star Wars! In the meantime, we have the highly anticipated but not so highly rated Bond movie Spectre, plus some other stuff that’s kinda lame. Spectre A cryptic message from Bond’s past sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organisation. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service …
After last week’s drought we are finally getting on to the end of year blockbusters. This week, we have Katniss Everdeen kicking ass and taking names, Owen Wilson in a breathless action-fest of a thriller and Arnold Schwarzenegger… in a zombie movie! Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part Two At the end of the saga, Katniss Everdeen realises that the stakes …
This is a bit of a dull week in cinemas. There are a lot of movies out today, some very good, some… not so much, but no highly-anticipated blockbusters yet. Grandma Lily Tomlin stars as Elle who has just gotten through breaking up with her girlfriend when Elle’s granddaughter Sage unexpectedly shows up needing $600 bucks before sundown. Temporarily broke, …
There’s a whole lot of nothing special out this week. Besides for the cold-war drama Bridge of Spies, everything else scores less than 50% on Rotten Tomatoes. Ugh, Star Wars has never seemed so far away. Bridge of Spies Tom Hanks stars as the American attorney tasked with negotiating the release of a U-2 spy plane pilot who was shot …
Cash once ruled Colorado commerce. From Denver’s neighborhood diners to mountain-town gift shops, physical …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
