Movie Reviews

There are a lot of things that can catch your attention when wanting to see a new film, from the trailer, movie poster, director, actors or even just hearing about it from word of mouth. It was reading an early review of the film that did it for me for Tom Nagel’s …

I love movies that take place during the ’80s… the clothes, hair, makeup, cars, and not to mention the references and the music. Oh, that magnificent ’80s music! There’s just something super extra fun about a movie taking place in the glorious ’80s that adds to the allure and excitement …
