The Last Duel – A Movie Review
On paper, The Last Duel had a lot going for it. Obviously, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Adam Driver are major draws due to their established talent.

Triple Frontier – A Movie Review
Triple Frontier is an action-packed film that kept me both anxious and very entertained.

Though the movie does come out until May 6, 2016, it’s never too early to get the fans worked into a frenzy, and this photograph has apparently done just that. You…

Hollywoodland – A Movie Review
I’d heard this was a very good movie and, as it turns out, I heard right. If you’re not familiar with the story of George Reeves, he is the man who played Superman in the old television series. I mean, the OLD television series from the fifties. Well, anyway, Reeves supposedly died from a self-inflicted…
