HOLLYWOOD—A new superhero is hitting the small screen and we got our first glimpse of him in 2014 in The CW hit “Arrow” where Grant Gustin appeared as Barry Allen, a geeky CSI who struck by lightening.

HOLLYWOOD—I’ve been waiting for weeks to discover just how “The Vampire Diaries” would continue the series without one of its biggest characters Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder)? Well you introduce new characters, but Damon isn’t as gone as the people of Mystic Falls might suspect. The episode opened with an unsuspecting couple feeling the wrath of Sheriff Forbes. Just when they thought...

Not quite.  I was almost certain...

HOLLYWOOD—It was two thrillers fighting for the top spot at the box-office this weekend.

HOLLYWOOD—Superstar Denzel Washington returns to the big screen this week with his latest foray, “The Equalizer.” The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw the trailer for this movie is that rather this was a sequel to “Man on Fire,” but while some similarities are present, its not completely the same character. This time around Washington...

The engagement will run through October 19. The Why is a fast-paced tragicomedy — one part modern satire one part honest investigation.

HOLLYWOOD—Upon first glance, “The Maze Runner” doesn’t look like anything interesting, but once in the theater seat this move proves to have plenty of adrenaline and surprises up its sleeve the audience would never suspect. The movie which is based on the 2009 young adult novel by James Dashner stars “Teen Wolf” alum Dylan O’Brien who finds himself trapped...

HOLLYWOOD—Well this summer has been teased as one of the most twisted seasons ever of the CBS reality hit “Big Brother.” The 16th cycle in the series was not as twisted as it had been promoted to audiences, so imagine the surprise, when the final two was revealed.
