The Florida Project is An Innovative & Brilliant Perspective on Poor America (Review)
The Florida Project is one of those rare movies that is short on plot, but heavy on realism. Sean Baker proves that he should be regarded as one of the best character directors working today. The Florida Project feels completely unscripted, and that's what makes it so...
Blade Runner 2049 is an Instant Sci-Fi Classic (Review)
When I walked into the theater to see Blade Runner 2049 on Monday, I had no idea what to expect. What was the movie actually about? Why is there a sequel to a movie that bombed at the box office and was later deemed a misinterpreted cult classic? As somebody who finds...

Happy Death Day: Unapologetically a Groundhog Day Remake, Now With Teens! (Review)
I think I must have heard about Happy Death Day before I saw it. And I’m pretty sure I scoffed and forgot about it. Make Groundhog Day into a horror film? I had only one question: why? Why would you do that? How did this get made? Groundhog Day is a classic and...
Blade Runner 2049 is a Sequel So Good it Makes The Original Better (Review)
This was in my top 5 most anticipated movies of 2017. I could not wait to see it. I discovered the original Blade Runner in my teens and loved it with that special love that hipsters have for their underappreciated favorites. There was a lot riding on this sequel....
