Also checked out the big mother’s day weekend movie Snatched. This is the one starring Amy Schumer and Goldie Hawn. Hawn hasn’t been in a movie since The Banger Sisters back in 2002. I guess her husband Kurt Russell is … Continue reading
Checked out a movie that has utterly bombed at the box office called Sleight. Came in 18th place in its opening weekend so was shocked to see it still at a nearby theater the next weekend so I decided to … Continue reading
So I liked Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 more than the first one… though I would understand why many wouldn’t. Now, I liked Guardians Vol 1 but I didn’t like it nearly as much as some – it was … Continue reading

Also saw The Case for Christ… the true story of a Chicago Tribune writer who went out to disprove the Crucifixion story and wound up a believer (who also wrote the book the flick is based on). This is a … Continue reading
Checked out the new movie called Phoenix Forgotten, a flick I’d only seen a poster for so I was kind of upbeat about going in cold. And it’s yet another found footage horror movie. The story is based around the … Continue reading
