Yesterday, I was able to see a pre-screening of the film “The Revenant,” starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Domhall Gleeson, and Will Poulter. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this. If you told me, “Hey–want to see a film where DiCaprio doesn’t speak much, is mostly alone, and spends a good deal crawling […]
Every once in awhile, I’ll see a film or read a story or book that touches me in a special way and provides motivation to be better. “Trumbo” is this year’s inspiration. I didn’t know much, well, anything about Dalton Trumbo. In fact, with a career that spanned nearly half a century (with some work […]
…Or as it’s better known as– “Let’s Be Psych–The F/X Edition” “Let’s Be Cops” is a buddy film that involves an odd couple of bros who are also BFFs for the last ten years or so. You have Shawn Ryan, who’s unemployed and likes to relive the glory days of his youth, goofing around, living off […]

Note: For those of you who don’t like to read, scroll down to check out my sixty-second movie review on YouTube. Tonight, I was able to attend a pre-screening of Tom Cruise’s latest sci-fi action film, “Edge of Tomorrow.” I was actually at San Diego Comic Con, and terribly shocked when Tom Cruise walked on […]
Damn, this film was all kinds of messed up. “River’s Edge” is a film about a high school student by the name of John, who strangles his girlfriend Jamie todeath. He disrobes her, (and maybe even more than that), and then proceeds to show off her lifeless body down by the river to his friends–maybe […]
I just watched “Stand By Me” for the first time ever a few days ago. I liked the film, but the ending just…well at first I thought it sucked. Gordie/the Writer talks about how his friend Chris, who looked out for him and was wanting a way out of the life he was in and […]
