Also caught up with The Kitchen… a gangster movie starring Melissa McCarthey, Tiffany Hadish, and Elizabeth Moss. And it’s not a comedy (what with McCarthey and Haddish usually doing comedies). This is a serious, dramatic gangster flick set in the … Continue reading
The new film Shaft is the third film called Shaft following the original 1971 classic and the 2000 soft reboot. That 2000 film was a semi-sequel as it starred Samuel L. Jackson as John Shaft, nephew of John Shaft from … Continue reading

Caught the new Equalizer 2 flick starring Denzel Washington over the weekend. This is a sequel to the pretty good first flick from a few years ago and to the 80s action/cop show (which I’ve never seen). Equalizer 2 … Continue reading
