    This week is the retelling of the real life story of the “miracle on the Hudson” aka the story of Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger. It’s starring Tom Hanks and directed by Clint Eastwood, and as much as I admire both of them, I have to wonder do we really need a movie of this so…

    This week was “The Light Between Oceans” starring (current/subject to change) real life couple Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander. It’s easy to see how they’d fall in to a romantic entanglement in real life based on these roles. However in spite of their onscreen chemistry I found the film a little too bland and not…

    LINK TO KFOG I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited to talk about such an inappropriate movie. I also couldn’t say half the things I wanted to about “Sausage Party” on the air – cause you know… censors and such. Let me just say if you like Seth Rogen comedies, please go see this…

    So clearly I didn’t dislike “Suicide Squad” as much as everyone else appears to have… It’s far from a perfect or even amazing film, but it’s nothing like Batman vs Superman (in a good way) and I didn’t have a bad time at it.  “Don’t Think Twice” made me cringe in a “they definitely captured…
