HOLLYWOOD—I’ve never been scared of clowns, but there is something about the clown in the 2017 remake of Stephen’s classic “It” that is absolutely unnerving. Now this is a major disclaimer: I have never seen the original “It.” No, this has nothing with me being scared, I just never watched it. However, this film has a level of eeriness...

HOLLYWOOD—It was a terrifying and spooky weekend at the box-office as a Stephen King remake of a 1980s classic, “It” took the box-office by storm. “It” shattered so many box-office records I’m not certain where to begin. It claimed the top spot with a stunning $117 million debut. Yes, you heard me, $117 million during its opening weekend. That...

HOLLYWOOD—Summer is over, and it’s officially the time to usher in fall fare including Oscar-bait, adult-dramas and what many studios consider the best of the best.

HOLLYWOOD—This has been a terrible summer at the box-office America. I have not seen numbers this bleak in years, I mean August has never been the greatest month for flicks, but even in previous years we’ve seen some flicks manage to surprise moviegoers like “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1” and the 2007 remake of “Halloween.” For the third...

HOLLYWOOD—We’ve always talked about how difficult comedy can be done. The last time audiences witnessed a hilarious comedy involving women was the 2011 hit “Bridesmaids” starring Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig. However, 2017 proves that when done right comedy can be just as fun with ladies with “Girls Trip.” Now, let’s just take the elephant out of the room:...

HOLLYWOOD—August is over, and the summer box-office proved to be one of the worst in recent history if you ask me. There were so many summer blockbusters that crashed and burned barely crossing the $100 million mark, or not nearly taking a bite out of the box-office as so many expected. So prepare for Oscar fare and dramatic pieces...

HOLLYWOOD—When most people think about a spy, James Bond automatically comes to mind, but what if I told you that “Atomic Blonde” takes the notion of the spy genre and turns it on its head a bit? Most people would be skeptical and so was I, but “Atomic Blonde” does offer some different for moviegoers. First off, we’re not...

HOLLYWOOD—Rarely do I ever frown at an animated film, but there is something about “The Emoji Movie” that just leaves you wondering, there is no way someone thought this movie would be that entertaining right? Well, let’s talk about it. As soon as “The Emoji Movie” opens I was immediately taken back to the animated flick “The Lego Movie.”...
