We would like to take this opportunity to go back in time, no not a sci-fi movie with lots of cool special effects, but a look at the past in the 2008 movie “The Express”.  This is a drama about the very real life and struggles of Ernie Davis, the first African-American to be awarded [...]

We join our “chosen one” in the sixth installment of the J.K Rowling series  Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.  The movie picks up with no time passing since the last film ending, and is much anticipated due to the “someone isn’t going to make it” sub-plot.  And you may have sat there wondering [...]

Transformers is one of those movie franchises that you knew would have a sequel before the 1st movie was ever released.  And true to form, Hollywood has given us another sequel, but the question is, can this movie eclipse what has been called the most underwhelming blockbuster of modern cinema.  The original movie was all [...]

Star Trek is one of the most successful failures in television history. Today, over 30 years since its original television series, Star Trek is playing somewhere in the world, every hour of every day. With multiple spin off shows, and two decades worth of feature movies, its no surprise that another movie has [...]
