Behind the Candelabra (2013)
Honestly listening to Liberace play the piano for two hours straight would have been more entertaining. This movie was two hours long but felt like at least eight. Michael Douglas did a good job as...

A future that is bleak with a desolate and thinly veiled political storyline. I’m getting a little tired of this tactic of starting an entire opening scene in another language. It fools me into...

Oh my gosh! Julia Roberts! Is that you? Wow. It’s sad to see a sequel blow it this badly. I don’t even know where to start. I guess the story itself just meanders around so much that you feel lost most...

They bought a Zoo, I didn’t buy this movie, but I’m glad that I watched it. Cameron Crowe brings another heartfelt movie into the mix with We Bought a Zoo. Matt Damon is the single father/widower that...

Shoot for Mars and even if you miss you land among the stars… and this movie had many stars in it. I was surprised how good the casting was in this film. Even though, initially, I thought with Matt...
