Top 5 – Directors with Five or Less Features

Posted on March 16, 2016March 5, 2018 by Kevin Wozniak

This Friday, director Ryan Coogler is releasing his latest film, Marvel’s Black Panther. Since his debut film Fruitvale Station in 2013, Coogler has quickly risen the ranks as one of the best, most exciting directors in Hollywood today, continuing to challenge himself and make great movies. So in honor Coogler an all the other great, young talent in Hollywood today, I am going to look at the best director’s with five or less features. Here are those…

Most Anticipated Movies of 2016: 20 – 11

Posted on February 29, 2016June 13, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Now that the Oscars are over, the 2015 movie year is officially over. With that being said, it is time to look at the movies coming out in 2016. A lot of intriguing titles coming out this year by some great filmmakers. So many, in fact, I left titles like Suicide Squad, Jason Bourne, Assassin’s Creed, and The Jungle Book off my Top 20. Not that I’m not excited for these films, it’s just that…

Best Performances from Oscar Nominees – The Supporting Actor

Posted on February 25, 2016June 14, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Continuing a look at the best performances and movies from this year’s Oscar nominees, here are the best performances from this year’s Best Supporting Actor nominees. CHRISTIAN BALE (Nominated for The Big Short) BEST PERFORMANCE – THE FIGHTER (2010) Christian Bale is one of the best actors working today. His chameleon-like style to lose himself in every role, both physically and emotionally, along with coming out with a movie almost every year, makes him…

Best Movies From Oscar Nominees – The Directors

Posted on February 23, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Continuing with Oscar week, I am going to look at the best movies or performances from this year’s nominees. First, I am going to look at this year’s Best Director nominees. LENNY ABRAHAMSON (Nominated for Room) BEST MOVIE – ROOM (2015) I didn’t see Abrahamson’s feature debut What Richard Did (2012), but I did see his second, Frank (2014), which I thought was a surreal, yet fascinating musical indie. With Room, Abrahamson elevates himself to…

Oscar 2015 – The ‘Other’ Oscars

Posted on February 22, 2016June 14, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

The Academy can’t nominate every movie, it’s impossible. There are always snubs and always a debate about which movie should have gotten in and which one shouldn’t be there. For the eight nominees for Best Picture, there are eight other movies that could have been there instead. So that’s what I’m going to do here. I am going to nominate movies and performances in the major categories that I felt deserved a spot in their…

Posted on February 21, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

I was very pleased with this year’s nominations for Best Picture. There were obviously some movies I would have preferred to get in, but all the movies nominated, I am okay with. There is no movie that makes me angry or upset like some years, *coughExtremelyLoudandIncrediblyClosecough*. Here is how I would rank this year’s Best Picture nominees, from least favorite to best. 8 – Brooklyn As I said at the beginning, I like all the…

Oscar Predictions – Who Should and Will Win

Posted on February 21, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Tonight’s the big night! Check out my final Oscar predictions of who should and will win the big prize tonight. I apologize for all my wrong predictions. BEST PICTURE Stats say The Big Short, hype says The Revenant. Definitely room for an upset, but it’s between those two. WILL WIN – THE REVENANT SHOULD WIN – SPOTLIGHT BEST DIRECTOR After the DGA, Inarritu is set up for history. George Miller could surprise for his…

Review – The Witch

Posted on February 19, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

The Witch made its premiere at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. I, unfortunately, was unable to see it then, which thoroughly upset me, as it was one of the more hyped films of that festival. Now, a little over a year later, I finally got to see what everyone was talking about in Park City. Had I seen The Witch at the 2015 festival, it would have been one of my favorites there. This is a…

Review – Race

Posted on February 18, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

Before even seeing Race, it already had a couple things going against it. The first is that, even though it is a sports movie, it isn’t about basketball or football or one of the major, more exciting sports. It is about track and field, a sport people only care about every four years. The second thing is that we know the ending already because it is one of the most historic moments in Olympic and…

Top 5 – Sports Biopics

Posted on February 16, 2016July 19, 2016 by Kevin Wozniak

This Friday, the Jesse Owens biopic Race hits theaters. I will be posting my review of the film on Thursday, but I will say, it’s a goodie. So in honor of Race, let’s take a look at the best sports biopics. 5- Miracle (Gavin O’Connor, 2004) You know it is a good sports movie when you know the ending, yet you are still on the edge of your seat during every sports scene, hoping the…
