Out in Theaters: THE FOREST
A listless turd of a film, 'The Forest' lacks the requisite scares to qualify as a horror and is devoid of the necessary singular iota of intelligence required to work…

Tom Hiddleston Totally Loses It in Insanely Awesome ‘HIGH-RISE’ Trailer
Director Ben Wheatley is perhaps the most underrated name in the horror game and his latest, High-Rise, looks to continue his streak of being a total badass with a camera. High-Rise will be the director’s fifth feature film effort – coming off the heels of the rather eccentric A Field in England – and has...

Winter 2016 Movie Preview – 16 Movies We’re Willing To Give the Benefit of the Doubt
We’ve written about the best films of 2015. We’ve written about the worst. And then, it was over. And so came “that” time of year. “That” time of year where the hits of 2015 continue to dominate the box office. Where awards contenders pile back into theaters.

After 201 films, 25 interviews (including Robert Duvall, Kevin Bacon, Jason Segel, Jason Schwartzman, Greta Gerwig, Jemaine Clement, Alex Garland, and Nick Kroll to name just a few), three massive international film festivals and countless hours spend idly engaged in film banter with my always entertaining gang of...

Out in Theaters: ‘POINT BREAK’
Impressive stunt work helps mask the ghastly script and awful performances present in 2015's version of Point Break, making for at least one reason for this completely unnecessary remake to…

Out in Theaters: ‘DADDY’S HOME’
'Daddy's Home' champions its family-friendly pull over boorish, toothy comedy to create a bumbling, occasional bemusing sitcom of a film. Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are apt as men battling…

Out in Theaters: ‘MUSTANG’
A thoughtful portrait of caged femininity, 'Mustang' strongly represents Eurpoean cinema’s knack for giving life to disparate voices. France's submission for the 2016 Oscar Best Foreign Film race is a…
