Stars: Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 23rd, 2015 What an emotional night on DANCING WITH THE STARS: The Season Finale, part one.  Bindi Irwin’s  & Derek Hough’s Freestyle was a tear jerker with everyone ending up sobbing as she danced her little heart out in honor of her dear departed Dad. It was a lovely and tender tribute, a performance that just may have sealed the deal with audiences and garnered her the trophy. But we won’t know for sure until tomorrow night. One thing we do know is that […]Read On »

In 1971, Zimbardo, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Chloe Sevigny, Timothy Hutton, Natasha Lyonne, Balthasar Getty, Taryn Manning, Stella Schnabel, Sadie Seelert, Haley Murphy, Bridget McGarry, Blue Lindberg, Mina Sundwall, Emma Adler, Annabelle Dexter-Jones, Lydia Hearst Writer: Tara Subkoff Director: Tara Subkoff Distributor: IFC Midnight Release Date (theatrical & VOD): November 20, 2015 #HORROR is rightly likely to cause a stir, partly because its protagonists are twelve-year-old girls and partly because writer/director Tara Subkoff has an ear for what girls of that age sound like, especially when they’re being mean. Subkoff also displays visual style to burn, setting her story in a uniquely-structured house […]Read On »

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Chiwetel Ejiofor, Nicole Kidman, Julia Roberts, Dean Norris, Alfred Molina, Joe Cole, Michael Kelly, Zoe Graham Writer: Billy Ray, based on the screenplay for EL SECRETO DEL SUS OJOS by Juan Jose Campanella & Eduardo Sacheri Director: Billy Ray Distributor: STX Entertainment Release Date: November 20, 2015 The 2009 Argentinean film EL SECRETO DEL SUS OJOS was well-reviewed and well-respected. Now an English-language adaptation by director/screenwriter Billy Ray, SECRET IN THEIR EYES, is here, and something seems to have been lost in translation. A lot of key plot points are the same, but whether it’s due to […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Tom Hardy, Emily Browning, David Thewlis, Christopher Eccleston, Chazz Palmintieri Writer: Brian Helgeland, based on the book THE PROFESSION OF VIOLENCE by John Pearson Director: Brian Helgeland Distributor: Universal Release Date (theatrical): November 20, 2015 As biographical gangster films go, LEGEND is good enough. This isn’t the first feature to tackle London’s notorious Kray brothers – actual brothers Gary Kemp and Martin Kemp starred in 1990’s THE KRAYS, which had a fairly different take on Ronnie and Reggie, twins from London’s East End who ruled the crime scene there in the 1960s. LEGEND, adapted by writer/director Brian […]Read On »

Stars: Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 16th, 2015 DANCING WITH THE STARS: The Semi Finals was a show-stopping, spectacular event as the last four couples danced their aching feet off in a last-ditch effort to grab the mirror ball trophy. In the end, no one was sent packing because Tamar Braxton, along with Val Chmerkovskiy,  had to withdraw from the competition due to illness.  The remaining four couples had three dances to perform tonight: An original dance, a trio dance and a dance off. The dance off saw Bindi Irwin […]Read On »

Stars: Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Tamar Braxton, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 9th, 2015 Emotional is one way to describe DANCING WITH THE STARS: Week Nine, another is surprising. This week, the couples had two dances to do, one with their partners and another with their partners and another couple. Two of those couples who were paired together earned a perfect 60. Sadly, one of those couples, Alexa PenaVega & Mark Ballas were eliminated at show’s end. The other couple – Bindi Irwin & Derek Hough  – stayed strong and safe. Once […]Read On »

Stars: Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega, Nick Carter, Bindi Irwin, Alek Skarlatos, Tamar Braxton, Andy Grammer, Network: ABC, airs Mondays Original Telecast: Nov. 2nd, 2015 It was a whole lotta gyrating in two hours tonight on DANCING WITH THE STARS. First, it was Icon night where the duos danced tributary dances to their idols. Then, whomever scored the highest of those dances won three points and immunity from not only elimination but from a dance off in the show’s second hour. Nick Carter & Sharna Burgess slammed the competition getting the only perfect score of the night, essentially giving them a […]Read On »

The original, made on a shoestring budget in 1979 and released in 1981, was sort […]Read On »
