On Friday, November 14th, the next film in the hit movie series ‘Now You See ME’ is set to be released. The movie ‘Now You See Me: Now You Don’t’, is the third movie in the film series and is set to be one of the best. The film is...
Honestly, I didn’t really think much of the movie Remember the Titans when I first saw it on the TV. Growing up, my brother was a football player, and my uncle was a coach. It was pretty typical for a football movie of some kind to be on in our house. It...
Movies used to tell us the hero’s journey was about greatness. In fact, I have this specific memory of hearing things like, “You’re destined for greatness!” You’re supposed to “rise above” everyone else, find your purpose and save the world like some invincible human. However, there are more films that...
A new movie is set to release tomorrow called ‘Bugonia’, a movie about the CEO of a major company who was kidnapped by two men who believed that she was an alien who was going to destroy the earth. The movie is set to be a black comedy, making jokes...
Movies love to tell us that growing up ends the moment you graduate high school. For most of us, that’s when things actually get confusing. You leave home, start working, maybe move to a new place (maybe more than once like in my case) and now all of a sudden...

Sometimes, the right people walk into your life at the exact moment you need them to, even without realizing it yourself. That’s what happens to Otto. In “A Man Called Otto,” Tom Hanks plays a grumpy, heartbroken man who’s done. His wife, the love of his life, is gone. With...
Some movies don’t need drama to make you feel something (though I’ll admit, I’m a sucker for a good dramatic story). They don’t rely on car chases or massive fight scenes (I’m not looking at you, “Fast & Furious”… okay, maybe a little but I love you). Instead, they show us something...
