I couldn't wait to see Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's first outing on a script together since their 1997 Oscar-winning "Goodwill Hunting." Turns out, I could've waited. THE LAST DUEL is based on Eric Jager's 2004 book recounting the true story of the the last government-sanctioned trial by combat in medieval France between Jean de [...]

WHAT??? No doubt the story of the 89th annual Academy Awards is perhaps the biggest plot twist in Oscar history. Just as I was resigning myself to the inevitable news that "La La Land" had won Best Picture, it was discovered that "Moonlight" (my favorite film of the year) had actually won!

Bowie was an artistic visionary and sonic adventurer who cut an endlessly original and challenging swathe through the musical landscape. We find him [...]
THE MARTIAN or (How a Geeked-out Gardener Saved His Own Life) stars our most down to earth actor in an out of this world saga that grabs us in its first few minutes, takes us on a wild ride, and features a signature performance in one of the best films of the year to date.

Look. I love the arts. And this is a FANTASTIC a story about rescuing artistic masterpieces from Nazis and returning them to their owners-- I mean, what could be better than that?!! Well, having seen THE MONUMENTS MEN-- just about anything. This is one of those hidden chapters of World War II that begs to [...]
