Hope Goldman is a name that somewhat contains a couple of words with certain high and up-market aspirations, therefore, one can safely assume it needs to be marketed. Of course, who would not want a person called Hope to be exactly that for them; their one-way journey to the inevitable of it all? In Austin […]
The overwhelming urge to resist a beautiful romantic comedy is sometimes hard to fathom when it comes to that particular genre. Such films can hardly be criticized as those almost belong to a different class of cinemas. Which Brings Me To You casts familiar actors in this sub-genre; movie fans, the pair’s bemoans a genre
At the beginning of the film “Consumed,” which is an otherwise dismal monster movie about a couple going camping and collapsing, there is an awesome nutty idea. Before long movement begins between the characters Jay(Mark Famiglietti) and Beth(Courtney Halverson) and their confrontation ends with that temple of human violence – a crazed outdoors man (Devon
Suspicion toward an Angel Studios picture is quite understandable; perhaps, because after all, this Utah based movie studio had already gained prominence last year with the surprising box office success of the child trafficking thriller Sound of Freedom.

“Are you lost?, an old lady off the mall asks sad-sack Renn Wheeland Nick Jonas during the usual millennial boredom that comprises one of his many periods. It’s the sort of innocent sentiment which in close up photo and done with ruthless awkwardness is purposeful in Robert Schwartzman’s, a tear jerker focused interactive drama in
Imagine a searing, social-political drama set against the backdrop of a detestable European refugee event which has its own counterparts in other Africa, Asia, the Middle East and even along America’s Southwestern border. This would be Agnieszka Holland’s ‘Green Border’ and in my opinion from all the new releases in the US this year, it
