Review – Ride Along 2

Review – Ride Along 2

I wasn’t a big fan of the first Ride Along (2014).  I thought it had a couple funny moments, but the plot was pointless and the movie was saved by the team of Ice Cube and Kevin Hart.  Did we need a sequel?  Of course not.  But the first one made a ton of money, so of course we got one.  And like most sequels, in “Ride Along 2” we get bigger locations, nicer cars,…

Review – 13 Hours: The Secret Solders of Benghazi

Review – 13 Hours: The Secret Solders of Benghazi

It is really hard to get excited for a Michael Bay movie.  For the last few years, Bay has badgered our senses and lowered our IQs with his Transformers sequels and the horrendous Pain & Gain (2013).  So when it came to 13 Hours: The Secret Solders of Benghazi, I can’t say I was too excited, as it had the potential to have the typical Bayhem of his usual films, while also being offensive, since…

Top 5 – Alan Rickman Performances

Top 5 – Alan Rickman Performances

My excitement for Oscar nomination day quickly diminished when I found out that the great Alan Rickman had passed away.  Rickman was one of our finest actors and, sadly, overlooked by almost everyone.  He was one of the most under-appreciated actors because he consistently did fantastic work in every movie and we always expected greatness.  Let’s honor the man by looking back at him at his best.   5 – SHERIFF GEORGE OF NOTTINGHAM in…

Top 5 – Michael Bay Movies

Top 5 – Michael Bay Movies

Michael Bay is the definition of all style, no substance.  He badgers our senses until we can no longer hear, see, or smell.  His movies are dumb, plotless, and mildly racist, but man does he make explosions and action a spectacle for the eyes.  With Transformers: The Last Night coming out this week, let’s look back at the Bayest of the Bay and look at the director’s five best movies.   Yes, there are five, amazingly.  …

I’ve taken care of the best movies for the most part, so let’s focus on the performances.  In this piece, I am going to talk about the supporting women of 2015.  Vets, newcomers, and breakouts alike shined in 2015 and it was tough to narrow it down to just five.  But I had to, and here are the five best performances by an actress in a supporting role.   5 – JANE FONDA in “YOUTH”…

The 2015 movie year is over.  Overall, I would say it has been a pretty great year for movies.  The first half of the year was a little rough, but the second half really picked up and was filled with some amazing films.  This is the first of a few lists that I will be making covering the 2015 movie year.  This first list will cover the technical and writing categories. BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY – “Inside…

2016 Golden Globes – Who Should/Will Win

2016 Golden Globes – Who Should/Will Win

The Golden Globes are tonight and it is going to be a little different than most years.  Usually, the Globes don’t have a ton of say in the Oscar race.  From some questionable nominations (Johnny Depp being a double nominee for The Tourist and Alice in Wonderland in 2010) to some interesting winners (Avatar winning Best Picture -Drama over The Hurt Locker and Inglorious Basterds), The Globes aren’t usually the greatest Oscar predictor.  This year,…
