Best Movies

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…

Not the strongest month for Netflix, but still got some good flicks coming.  Here are my choices for the best movies coming to Netflix in April.   You can see the full list of movies and shows coming to Netflix in April right here.     5 – DEAR WHITE PEOPLE: SEASON 1 (Justin Simien, 2017) Dear White People was an indie gem in 2014.  A biting, socially relevant, authentically hilarious look at Africa-American culture in today’s college…

We are officially done with the first quarter of the 2017 cinematic year and, surprisingly, it was a pretty solid start to the year, though not without its misses.  Quarter two starts off with a decent month that features one of the most anticipated blockbusters of the year, but really highlights some true indie darlings.  Here are my picks for the best movies coming out in April.       5 – FREE FIRE (Ben Wheatley, April…

Who says movies have to be set in multiple locations and have a number of set pieces?  There have been a number of movies through out time that have taken place in one central location, and we’re getting another one this weekend in The Belko Experiment.  So in honor of that, here are my picks for the best movies set in one place. NOTE: I realize some of these movies don’t 100% take place in one…

Samuel L. Jackson is the man.  Plain and simple, the man.  With his loud voice, boisterous personality, and acting talent, Jackson has become a Hollywood icon and one of the most recognizable and most enjoyable faces to see on screen.  This Friday, Jackson stars alongside Ryan Reynolds in The Hitman’s Bodyguard, a hilarious, awesome movie and another excellent performance in his already staggering filmography.  So in honor of that, I am going to count down…
