Ad Astra Review
First and foremost, Ad Astra is the most visually stunning film I’ve seen all year. Space is such an extraordinary imaginative area for filmmakers and James Gray delivered on all fronts.

Adam Sandler’s performance … Continue reading Uncut Gems Review

The first half of this film had promise. It was fast paced and showed the life of strippers in a very tasteful and sexy way. The camera is always different when a woman is … Continue reading Hustlers Review
