Rented the flick Goosebumps 2 after missing it at the theaters over Halloween. This is the Non-Jack-Black sequel to the Jack Black led Goosebumps from a few years ago. It wasn’t a bad (nor an overly good) little family comedy … Continue reading
Checked out the new Kevin Hart / Bryan Cranston drama/comedy The Upside over the weekend. This is a movie that’s getting heavily Twitter-bombed because Kevin Hart is in it and he hasn’t – or hasn’t enough – apologized for old … Continue reading

Checked out the new Melissa McCarthey drama (!!) Can You Ever Forgive Me? a few days ago. I say drama but it’s more dramady… with a small dose of one the more surprisingly tense heist scenes I’ve seen in a … Continue reading
