Nowhere Special Review

I remember once seeing a quote saying that the hardest thing about being a parent is not being around to see how your child’s life turns out. It’s a morbid thought to have but sadly it is a reality. Nowhere Special shows us the sad reality of terminally ill John as he is trying to…

Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare Review

The last time Guy Ritchie and Henry Cavill teamed up was in the underhyped The Man from U.N.C.L.E. While the movie was a pretty good spy/action movie the actions of the co-star brought about a dark cloud over the film.

Sting Review

Growing up in the 80’s on Saturday mornings I remember seeing horror movies with gigantic insects or vermin attacking people. Movies like Ben had me fearing rats. Piranha and Jaws made me not want to go swimming and this one movie about a black mamba called Venom had me scared of vents and enclosed areas.…
