This is when the best of the best movies come out from the best of the best filmmakers and actors. It is also film festival season, one that I love to follow and attend.

Top 5 – Gene Wilder Movies

Posted on August 30, 2016September 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Tragedy struck again yesterday, when it was reported that the great Gene Wilder had passed away. He was one of the finest comedic actors we ever had. His combination of his dry, quick one-liners and gift for the art of acting made him a staple in the 70’s and an icon. In honor of the great actor, here are my favorite Gene Wilder movies. 5 – HEAR NO EVIL, SEE NO EVIL (Arthur Hiller,…

Review – Southside With You

Posted on August 26, 2016September 6, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama get the Linklater Before treatment in Southside With You, which focuses on the couple’s first date together when they were both colleagues at a Chicago law-firm. Did we actually need this movie? Probably not, as I believe an account of what happened this night was already publicized at some point. But, I am glad that we did. Southside With You is a charming, smart, always interesting love story with…

Review – Don’t Breathe

Posted on August 25, 2016September 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Don’t Breathe should really be called Don’t Fuck with Stephen Lang. This movie is an hour and a half of Lang kicking ass and taking names, as he plays a blind war veteran, known only as Blind Man, defending his house from three hooligans (Jane Levy, Dylan Minnette, Daniel Zavatto) who break in trying to steal a large amount of money. The first half of the movie is incredibly intense. The kids think they have it easy,…

Top 5 – Non-Scorsese Directed Robert De Niro Movies

Posted on August 25, 2016September 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Not much more can be said about Robert De Niro that hasn’t been said already. He’s one of the best to ever grace the screen, some would argue the very best. He gives every performance his all and defines what method acting is. This weekend, De Niro stars in the boxing drama Hands of Stone. So in honor of that, here is a look at the best Robert De Niro movies. And, to make it a little…

Review – Kubo and the Two Strings

Posted on August 23, 2016September 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

I am claiming 2016 The Year of Animation. So many animated movies have been released and most of them have been very, very good. Finding Dory and Sausage Party led the way in terms of quality, but both may have just been jumped by Kubo and the Two Strings. This is an imaginative, heartwarming, exciting film that features some of the best animation I have ever seen on screen. Kubo and the Two Strings follows our cycloptic…

Review – War Dogs

Posted on August 20, 2016September 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

It takes a wild and crazy director to bring a wild a crazy story to life. War Dogs has both of these things. Director Todd Phillips, known mostly for his comedic work, lends his directorial talents to this incredible true story about two twentysomething stoners (Miles Teller and Jonah Hill) who become international arms dealers. The story is almost too obscure to be real. But Phillips knows how to handle chaos well and not over do…

Top 5 – Jonah Hill Movies

Posted on August 18, 2016September 6, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Jonah Hill’s career, much like his weight, fluctuates up and down. He started off as a comedic sidekick and has since grown into a leading man with two surprising, but well earned Oscar nominations. This Friday, Hill stars along Miles Teller in Todd Phillip’s War Dogs, a film I am looking forward to seeing. So in honor of that, here are my five favorite Jonah Hill movies. These movies are based on quality of film and…

Here’s a look at the best movies coming to Netflix in August. 5 – FINAL DESTINATION 3 (James Wong, 2006) The Final Destination movies might be slightly stupid, but they are also some of the funnest horror movies you will ever see.

#fav7films

Posted on August 15, 2016October 26, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

On Twitter today, one of the trending topics is #fav7films. People in the Twittersphere would post their seven favorite movies of all-time. The lists are very interesting to read, as they were incredibly diverse and unique. When I think of my “favorite” movies, I think of the movies that I would watch if I were to watch seven movies over and over again for the rest of my life. These aren’t the “best movies” or…
