In the name of full disclosure, I need to fess up to the fact that I did not know exactly what A Ghost Story was supposed to be all about. The title seems pretty straight forward. Okay, cool. Two talented actors are attached to co-lead this project, Oscar nominatee Rooney Mara and Oscar winner Casey …

Time for a Reel ATOMIC BLONDE review
The The Coldest City is a the first book of a trilogy of graphic novels written by Anthony Johnson. The novel did “okay” in the department of success but never set the world on fire.

Since the turn of the millennia, Nolan has directed eight movies and each of those have gone on to be well received by both the critics and fans alike.

Time for a Reel VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS review
Luc Besson is an acclaimed French director that has enjoyed international success for more than three decades. He’s also one of the few that is tied down to any one genre. In my opinion, Besson’s best works were back in the 90s when directed films such as La Femme Nikita (1990), Léon: The Professional (1994) …
