Gimme Shelter: Stop Dancing With Your Demons (Movie Review)
Based on a true story, Gimme Shelter shines a light on a grim world where the foster care system, homelessness, drug abuse, and teen pregnancy collide. Vanessa Hudgens stars as Apple, who finally flees her drug addict mother (Rosario Dawson) to reconnect … Continue reading
Lone Survivor: Real Hospitality (Movie Review)
Operation Red Wings was an unmitigated disaster, if Navy Seal Marcus Luttrell’s (Mark Wahlberg) book, Lone Survivor, is to be believed. Sent in with three of his fellow Seals (Taylor Hitsch, Emile Hirsch, and Ben Foster) to scout out a Taliban leader, … Continue reading

It was a big year for films based on true stories about racial relations in the United States. In 2013, merely weeks into January, Michael B. Jordan played Oscar Grant III in Fruitvale Station, the victim of a police-related shooting … Continue reading

The Butler: Two Roads Divided (Movie Review)
Over the last year, I’ve seen 42, Fruitvale Station, 12 Years A Slave, and Django Unchained. Each of them presented a time period in American history where racism and prejudice caused great pain, even death, as the country struggled through toward civil rights for everyone … Continue reading

American Hustle: Broken Dreams (Movie Review)
I’d heard American Hustle billed as a period piece Ocean’s Eleven. I didn’t find it that clever (plot twist wise) or hilarious, but David O. Russell again takes a reasonably straightforward plot (The Fighter, Silver Linings Playbook) and turns it into an engaging piece. … Continue reading
