Top 5 – Tom Hanks Movies

Posted on April 26, 2017March 1, 2022 by Kevin Wozniak

Tom Hanks is an American treasure. A man of extraordinary talent and class, Hanks is always a pleasure to see on screen. Through out his career, Hanks has taken on a number of diverse and challenging roles, making him one of the finest actors to ever grace the screen and making this list incredibly tough to make. Though I ended up landing on these five, this list could have easily expanded to ten and maybe…

Top 5 – Oscar Isaac Movies

Posted on April 19, 2017May 23, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

It’s incredible to think of Oscar Isaac as still a relative newcomer. A supporting player for many years, Isaac got his first true breakout in Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood (2010) and has been on the rise since, becoming one of the best and most exciting actors working today. This weekend, Isaac stars in Terry George’s The Promise, alongside Christian Bale. So with that, here are my picks for the best Oscar Isaac movies. Remember, these movies are…

Review – Gifted

Posted on April 17, 2017May 3, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

Director Marc Webb bursted onto the cinematic scene in 2009 with (500) Days of Summer, which, for my money, is one of the best romantic comedies I have ever seen. With great indie success comes blockbuster opportunities and Webb was given the reigns as the director of the new Spider-Man franchise starring Andrew Garfield. Even though I am a fan of those films, audiences and other critics weren’t too kind to them, giving the film poor reviews and…

Review – The Fate of the Furious

Posted on April 13, 2017May 15, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

The Fate of the Furious is the eighth installment of the Fast and Furious franchise, which is an incredible feat. Who would have thought a small budgeted, Point Break (1991) rehash about street racing would turn into one of the best action series ever put on film? You would think at some point the series would run out of gas and turn in a bad movie. But with The Fate of the Furious, the franchise is stronger than…

Ranking: Fast & Furious Movies

Posted on April 12, 2017May 17, 2023 by Kevin Wozniak

Who would have thought that 20 years ago, a small-budgeted street racing movie would grow into a box office juggernaut and global sensation? Seeing the Fast & Furious franchise’s growth over the last two decades has been interesting to watch. What started as street-level crime movies that focused more on fancy cars and racing has progressed into global espionage action films with some of the most ridiculous stunts we’ve ever seen on film. Though not…

Review – Going in Style

Posted on April 10, 2017April 14, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

Going in Style is Ocean’s 11 for people in the AARP crowd. It is an amusing, quirky, lighthearted film with a stellar cast that is incredibly predictable, yet mildly enjoyable. Desperate to pay the bills and come through for their loved ones, three lifelong pals, Joe (Michael Caine), Albert (Alan Arkin), and Willie (Morgan Freeman), risk it all by embarking on a daring bid to knock off the very bank that is taking their money. The dynamic trio of…

What SHOULD Happen in ‘The Fate of the Furious’

Posted on April 10, 2017May 3, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

This weekend, the highly anticipated The Fate of the Furious comes out, the eighth (that’s right, eight!) film in the Fast and Furious franchise. The film is directed by F Gary Gray (The Italian Job (2003), Straight Outta Compton (2015)) and stars familiar faces Vin Diesel, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris ‘Ludacris’ Bridges, Jason Statham, Kurt Russell, and adds Charlize Theron as the villain. From watching the trailers, the movie is going to be just as…

Top 5 – ‘Fast and Furious’ Scenes

Posted on April 10, 2017May 3, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

Throughout seven films, the Fast and Furious franchise has brought us some jaw-dropping moments and scenes. From exhilarating races, to badass fights, to physics-defying stunts, these movies know how to exhilarate us and put our jaws on the floor. So in honor of The Fate of the Furious coming out this week, here are my picks for the best Fast and Furious scenes. These aren’t just races, but scenes that made our hearts race. 5…

Review – Ghost in the Shell

Posted on April 7, 2017April 14, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

I never really got into anime. I’ve dabbled in some Dragonball Z and seen some Hayao Miyazaki films, but that’s really it. I’ve heard of the beloved titles, like Akira and Cowboy Bebop, but again, never watched them. I heard about Ghost in the Shell and knew that it was one of the most beloved anime’s out there. No anime had been adapted into a live-action American film since the debacle that was Dragonball: Evolution (2009), so this was quite a gamble…

Review – Power Rangers

Posted on April 7, 2017May 3, 2017 by Kevin Wozniak

I grew up watching the Power Rangers T.V. show and loving it. Sure the show was incredibly cheesy and terribly acted, but it was fun and I was watching it when it roughly five years old, an age where I only knew select shapes, numbers, and colors, so obviously this show was going to be my thing with my limited intelligence. As I grew up, I stopped hearing of the Rangers. I was aware that they continued…
