After last week’s dreadful goodbye to Willow Shields & Mark Ballas, tonight’s show was a pleasant reprieve, until tomorrow’s results show, that is. Trio night on DWTS and only one couple perfected the night with a total of 80 points for two dances…Rumer Willis & Val Chmerkovskiy! They did the Rumba to a perfect 40 and then sealed the deal with their trio dance, the Paso Doble. Right […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Abigail Breslin, Joely Richardson, Douglas M. Griffin, Raeden Greer, Bryce Romero Writer: John Scott 3 Director: Henry Hobson Distributor: Lionsgate/Roadside Attractions Release Date: May 8, 2015 MAGGIE gives us a whole lot of things we don’t expect and perhaps didn’t know we wanted, but come to appreciate soon and thoroughly. John Scott 3 has crafted a screenplay that thinks through the zombie apocalypse more thoroughly than most in the genre. More, this is not a movie about a group of survivors, or even a lone survivor, facing down a horde. It’s a sober family drama […]Read On »

PRIVATE NUMBER | © 2015 ARC Entertainment

Rating: R Stars: Hal Ozsan, Nicholle Tom, Judd Nelson, Tom Sizemore, Gary McDonald Writer: LazRael Lison Director: LazRael Lison Distributor: ARC Entertainment/Summer House Pictures Release Date: Theatrical & VOD, May 1, 2015 PRIVATE NUMBER is one of those what’s-going-on-here thrillers that works as well as it does partly because writer/director LazRael Lison keeps us guessing most of the way through whether what’s happening is hallucinatory, supernatural, or some combination of the two. It also helps that the film has a sturdy leading man in Hal Ozsan, who is capable of the personality swings that the script demands. A prologue sequence […]Read On »
