Silence
Directed By: Martin Scorsese
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver, Tadanobu Asano, Ciarán Hinds, and Liam Neeson
For just the second time in the 21st century, director Martin Scorsese has directed a live action film not starring his second muse Leonardo DiCaprio — his first being longtime collaborator Robert De Niro. Gangs of New York, The Aviator, The Departed, Shutter Island, and Wolf of Wall Street all featured DiCaprio. His latest feature Silence, however, follows in the foot...

Midnight Special
Directed By: Jeff Nichols
Starring: Michael Shannon, Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, Adam Driver, Sam Shepard, and Jaeden Lieberher
Shotgun Stories. Take Shelter. Mud. These films are all the product of a singular director-actor combination, that of visionary Jeff Nichols and his muse Michael Shannon. The third time apparently wasn't the charm as the dynamic duo is back together again on the big screen with this weekend's Midnight Special. For his fourth collaboration with Sh...

I've still got a few good years left in my twenties, but I do realize that time is ticking away. Thankfully, I'm not at the beginning of some long monologue about getting older. I am, however, at the beginning of a rather interesting realization about how the generational gap widens with each passing generation. We live longer than ever... Continue reading ...

This Is Where I Leave You
Directed By: Shawn Levy
Starring: Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Adam Driver, Rose Byrne, Corey Stoll, Kathryn Hahn, Connie Britton, Timothy Olyphant, Dax Shepard, Ben Schwartz, and Jane Fonda
For a director, Shawn Levy has relatively high productivity. Just look at his throughput. Since 2011, he's given us Real Steel, The Internship, the upcoming Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb, and several made-for-television movies. That's a busy schedule as a director, and it's...

What If (The F Word)
Directed By: Michael Dowse Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Zoe Kazan, Megan Park, Adam Driver, Mackenzie Davis, and Rafe Spall
I'm not a perfect model of health, but sometimes we invite health issues with the things we consume. Take famed balladeer Luther Vandross. During his lifetime, the R&B singer concocted a devilish delight known as the Luther Burger (also known as the doughnut burger). This hamburger / cheeseburger is slapped right between two Krispy Kreme doughnuts rat... Continue reading ...

Frances Ha
Directed By: Noah Baumbach
Starring: Greta Gerwig, Mickey Sumner, Adam Driver, and Grace Gummer
Greta Gerwig has had a long, hard road to success on the big screen. Frances Ha doesn't mark her first leading role. We've seen her lead the pack for somewhat underwhelming films like Damsels in Distress and Lola Versus. She hasn't had that breakout role yet, that performance that leaves an indelible mark on movie-goers. Frances Ha might just be that role. We'll just have to wait and s... Continue reading ...
