There are some movies that are named about as perfectly as can be for what they are about. Star Wars, Saving Private Ryan, Sixteen Candles all have great names and they never actually same the title in the movie. Then there are those named for what they are about such as Jurassic Park, Top Gun, […]
Music documentaries or biographical movies can always be a mixed bag of what you might get. They either seem to give you more than you expected or miss out on some of the more interesting aspects of the band or singer. While Bohemian Rhapsody was a wonderful film that captured Queen and Freddy Mercury quite […]
Today you can’t think of shoes in general without Nike being a part of the conversation. They are the biggest name in shoes and anyone with money to throw around freely has a pair or two of the best shoes they can get. The top of the shoe mountain is the one named after the […]

When I first saw trailers for “The Mother” on Netflix I thought that it was a vehicle for Jennifer Lopez to dip into the action genre. She has been in thrillers and action movies, but this was her portraying the action hero that usually is reserved for men like Arnold and Sly. Shots of her […]
I’m a fan of shows like The Office and Parks and Recreation and their style of documentary-comedy.
