Three years after British audiences were treated with Streetdance 3D, a superior dance movie that was immensely promoted because of Britain’s Got Talent street dance craze, comes this artsy version of the movie which tries to wrap itself as a political statement, but in reality does not inspire or add anything new to the dance […]
Don’t Pass Me By isn’t exactly the most stellar of movies and that’s an understatement. The film revolves around four women, each facing a unique crisis in their lives. Each woman’s storyline is intertwined and deals with various challenges stemming from love, pregnancy, family, and even death. While the film isn’t “all bad” as some
The first act had some good jokes and the first half was enjoyable, but the second and third are unmemorable. As a result, Seeking Dolly Parton is unfortunately one of the more lacking films within its genre. Charlie and Cerina, a female couple, desire to become parents which tends to follow the trope of a
Oh, Johnny Depp He had us eating from his palms. We hardcore movie buffs loved what he stood for.

Here is the hit of the Beloit Film Festival, a British road comedy that is fueled by the plot’s ability to amuse, although only occasionally. “Above the Clouds” finally obtains a wide release via the multitude of free streaming TV platforms which are desperate for content (I watched it on Tubi), and May have missed

An original approach to the sub-genre of found footage films but fails the same way in which many others do at least it’s more palatable. The cast includes a family of four,
Have you ever been motivated enough to the point where you’d sacrifice even the most basic aspects of living like sleeping, eating, or taking a break for something? If you’ve never had to answer that question, then maybe you haven’t truly wanted something badly enough. Jokes aside, the story of One of These Days is
For sure, I remembered Steve Zahn thanks to his early career appearance in Reality Bites, but it was in the underappreciated 1999 gem “Happy, Texas” that I looked at him and thought, This guy is something special. I mean, he has made his share of Strange Wilderness-level bad decisions, but while most of Hollywood’s actors
