BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Movie Review: #TheLegendOfTarzan

Led by an all-star cast, The Legend of Tarzan doesn't bore, but doesn't move us either. Review by Matt Cummings If the 2016 box office has proven anything, it's that American audiences are becoming more choosy in what they watch. We've seen that message quickly emerge as one sub-par film after another has fallen to poor turnout and negative reactions by critics. And while The Legend of Tarzan hopes to reverse that trend - and it's better than most of what we've seen this season - it still rings a bit hollow. A retelling of the classic novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs, we are introduced to the British gentlemen Lord Greystoke (Alexander Skarsgard), who struggles to maintain his sense of self in 19th Century England, all while events unfold in his native land that will draw him back to Africa. Central to this is the politics of colonization, with the Belgium king Leopold staking his claim over the continent. But he'll need help, and therefore

THE GIVER Review. No One Can Help This Ship From Sinking

Jeff Bridges  and  Meryl Streep , can’t help this ship from sinking. Look who's back with another review. RAMA . I want to thank him again for reviewing the film. Make sure to follow him on Facebook and twitter . I’ve never read the book yet, so I’m not the millions who say that THE GIVER is one of their childhood favorite but as a movie, I just don’t see anything special about it. The story or the concept may be special and unique or groundbreaking when it first hit the shelves, but to have it now, in a sea of other dystopian utopia formulaic young adult stories like it, THE GIVER just seems too late, too familiar, and too flat, there’s nothing extraordinary about this film, which is heartbreaking considering I’m a huge fan of director Phillip Noyce’s ‘Jack Ryan’ movies and that THE GIVER also showcases such greats as Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep , but even they can’t help this ship from sinking. Brenton Thwaites, Odeya Rush, and Cameron Monaghan play three

TV Recap: True Blood "Fire In The Hole"

TV Recap: True Blood "Fire In The Hole" By: suepafly In LA, Sarah Newlin, or rather New-me finds her new self through a little yoga, meditation, and rocking some brunette locks. That’s great and all, but that little intro was a little overly long, we’ve only got some many minutes left. It’s time for some bad things. Pam questions how long Eric has been sick, and he’s slow to respond. It’s been about a month since he’s been in St. Peteresburg, and Pam really hates the Russians. Eric feigns that he didn’t know Pam would come looking for him, as if. But he kept on moving to avoid detection, but she outwitted him, only because he’s unwell he tells her. She breaks the news to him that she felt Tara meet the true death while she was in Morocco, and all he can do is ask if she played the bucket game, which she did. He likes that game, but he’s such a Debbie downer, totally un-Eric Northman like. Pam isn’t ready to throw in the towel on him yet. Godric, Nora, and soon Eric too

TV Recap: True Blood "I Found You" By: Sue Eric goes to a hotel, and someone watches him as he faces the window, unbuttoning his shirt. Eric is surprised that he found him. It’s Jason. Eric tells him that he needed space to think. He’s still thinking. Jason can’t stop thinking, but Eric didn’t need to get away from him. He knew Eric would play the whole lone rider island thing. Eric makes his drink, shaking it. He asks about Violet, as Jason drinks the drink down. He’s crazy about Violet, but he can’t get Eric out of his head. The push, his words. It’s not the first time Eric has heard them. He’s been a sexy beast for a long time, and people desiring him is nothing new. Eric pushes him down onto the chair and walks away, but Jason isn’t taking that. He leaps at the Viking, stripping away his own shirt. He pushes him down onto his stomach, taking control. The pair kiss in one of the steamiest scenes in True Blood history, and just as Eric kisses his way down Jason’s body,
