Movie Review: Independence Day: Resurgence (2016)

In a world in which sequels appear decades after the original film (such as “Bambi II,” “Fantasia 2000,” “The Wicker Tree,” “Easy Rider: The Ride Back,” “TRON: Legacy,” and “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,” among others), let’s just say the results are, well, not very good. People usually do not want to wait that long…

Movie Review: Truth (2015)

Perhaps naming a motion picture Truth is opening the door to criticism over the real validity of its contents — more so when the film is based on true events and events that are still relevant in the public conscious, no less.

The beloved web-head is now played by Andrew Garfield, taking over the wall-crawling duties from…

Movie Trailer #2: Total Recall (2012)

The second trailer for the upcoming remake of Total Recall has come online. It rehashes what we already know — Quaid (Farrell), a man who has a lingering feeling there is something more to his life, goes to a memory-implanting service and finds that it is actually the life he has been leading that has…

Movie Trailer #3: The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

As if “The Avengers” coming out this weekend wasn’t enough superhero hype to swallow right now! Today, Sony Pictures dropped a new trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man and like the previous one that dropped in February, it is good. More revelations are to be found within this one, as well as more shots of The…
