HOLLYWOOD—Comedy or action: those were the new choices for moviegoers at the box-office this weekend, as “Bad Moms” and “Jason Bourne” did battle with last week’s champ, “Star Trek Beyond.” Well, it was Matt Damon’s return to the “Bourne” franchise that took “Jason Bourne” to the top spot with over $60 million. That is an impressive debut, compared to...

HOLLYWOOD—I cannot believe I’m saying this, but I was quite entertained while watching the latest Marvel entry, “The Marvels.” Now is it the best of the comic book universe, no, nowhere close, but considering I paid for a movie ticket, I was not disappointed with the purchase that I made America. I know plenty of you might be asking if...

HOLLYWOOD—Sometimes being nominated during awards season isn’t always a good thing, especially if you’re noted for the Golden Raspberry Award better known as the Razzies people. The worst in cinema is highlighted the night before the granddaddy of all award shows: The Oscars. Leading nominees for the Razzies was the film “Blonde” which earned a total of 8 nominations...

HOLLYWOOD—Well, the times are changing people! For the first time in the history of the MTV Movie Awards, the 2017 ceremony will combine TV with Film. Yep, it’s a clash of two of the biggest forms of entertainment. The film “Get Out” and the Netflix hit “Stranger Things” are the top contenders picking up 6 nominations and 4 nominations...

HOLLYWOOD—It looked like audiences wanted a good scare to kick-off the Friday the 13th weekend, as the horror comedy “Happy Death Day” slayed the box-office. The flick, which watches a woman relive her death over and over again until she discovers her killer rose to the top spot with an impressive $26.5 million debut. Not bad for a flick...

HOLLYWOOD—I really thought that the return of Linda Hamilton to the “Terminator” franchise after being absent for more than 30 years would revitalize the franchise for audiences, but that is not the case. Not even Hamilton and the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger could draw out audiences. “Terminator: Dark Fate” won the box-office over the weekend, but its victory was...

HOLLYWOOD—This might sound weird to many people, but there was one film that shaped my interest in cinema at a very young age. Actually, it was one character to be exact. Any guesses as to who? I’ll give you hint: he’s known as the ultimate boogeyman. It’s Michael Myers. There is something about a faceless, soulless, unstoppable killing machine...

HOLLYWOOD—I thought this was perhaps not only the worst movie I saw in the year 2014, but perhaps one of the worst flicks that I’ve seen in a real long time. That flick was the remake of “Godzilla.” Was it the fact that the movie lacked star power? Nope. Was it the fact that the special effects were lackluster?...

HOLLYWOOD—I’ve attempted to wrap my head around for YEARS just when actor Leonardo DiCaprio would finally get that shot at Oscar. I mean this guy has delivered riveting performance after performance in such flicks like “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,” “Titanic,” “The Departed,” “Blood Diamond,” “Revolutionary Road” and “The Wolf of Wall Street” to say the least. His latest expeditionary flick...

HOLLYWOOD—When “Wonder Woman” arrived to the big screen with Gal Gadot in the starring role a few years ago it was a spectacle. It was unlike anything that the comic book universe had seen before; a female superhero that was on the same playing field as the greats like Batman and Superman. It was an origin tale that had...
