Red One: Christmas Magic
I have a fondness for Christmas movies but even more importantly, my favorite Christmas movie is an action film. So when I saw the trailers for Red One I was excited. With a fantastic cast and promises of exhilarating action, I looked forward to seeing the film. What I discovered when I watched the screening…
“Twisters”: Exciting and Emotional
In a summer full of action movies, I wondered if “Twisters” would have what it took to stand out. A sequel to the 1996 Twister, I also was curious how it compared with the original film. But I was pleasantly surprised with a film that is exciting and emotional, with a cast of colorful characters,…
Thelma: Delightfully Funny
I like different, especially in movies. I’m always looking for something that’s going to be entertaining but add a different point of view. When I heard about Thelma, I was excited because in this film, the main hero is an elderly woman. When I got the chance to watch the film, I found it as…
“The Fall Guy” Thumbs up Action and Fun
Ever since I saw the first trailers, I knew I wanted to see “The Fall Guy”. Not only did I watch the original tv series with Lee Majors but from the trailers, it looked like Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt were going to be comedy gold together. When I finally got the chance to see…
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare: Flawlessly Executed
I love Guy Ritchie’s films. I had a friend who loved heist films and got me into his movies. Suffice to say, I’m always entertained when I watch one of Guy Ritchie’s films. So I expected The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, especially with the cast involved, to be entertaining. But it goes far beyond that,…

Arthur the King: Moving and Heartwarming
When it comes to movies about animals, I tend to fall in love with the story, mostly because I love animals. I’d seen enough previews of Arthur the King to know that I was looking forward to it. Even though it does have its predictable moments, the way the director builds the story, keeping the…
“Argylle”: Full of Surprises
Ever since I saw the first poster for “Argylle”, I wanted to watch the movie. It looked like a fun twist on a spy movie and I was especially curious about the cat. Knowing that the film had an incredible cast made it even harder for me to resist. After watching the movie, I found…
“Role Play”: Humorous Situations
I was very curious about this film that stars Kaley Cuoco and David Oyelowo. While it’s a premise that’s been seen before, typically the unsuspecting spouse is the female. In this film, the spy is played by Kaley with David Oyelowo playing the trusting husband. While much of the film is what you expect, there…
“The Beekeeper”: Mesmerizing Action
I like action films. I also like Jason Statham. He had a tendency to give us films with explosive action that are thrill rides. “The Beekeeper” perfectly encapsulates Statham’s strengths, giving us a thrill packed film with mesmerizing action, an interesting plot premise and witty repartee along with a side helping of pointed commentary on…
