Time for a Reel DEATH WISH review
Another classic makes its way to the theaters in the form of an all too familiar remake. 1974’s Death Wish starring Charles Bronson was viewed as a call to arms for vigilantism. The subject matter was divisive, as people praised the unlawful “take matters into your own hands” attitude, while others were much more critical …
Time for a Reel GAME NIGHT review
Jason Bateman has seen a sustainable success rate throughout a television and movie career that has spanned four decades. Bateman’s youthful presence has been a constant throughout, although it’s been his sarcastic side that has been in the forefront in this last decade or so. It’s the rated R works such as Horrible Bosses (2011), …
Time for a Reel Marvel Studios’ BLACK PANTHER review
Believe or not, Marvel Studios’ Black Panther is the eighteenth movie this massive ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe. Over the last ten years Marvel has totally changed the landscape and measuring stick for what is to be considered a successful franchise.

Time for a Reel BILAL: A NEW BREED OF HERO review
Last year Kubo and the Two Strings (2016) was a pleasant surprise that seemingly came out of nowhere. By the time that awards season rolled around, the positive buzz could not be ignored.

While momentum may have been slowed due to the extended break between The Scorch Trials (2015) and …
Time for a Reel DEN OF THIEVES review
A trend that’s becoming increasingly more popular comes in the form of longer runtimes. Sometimes they’re necessary while other times it’s just pointless blather. For a movie such as Den of Thieves to come in with such a hefty runtime (140 minutes), I immediately cringed. How long does a run of the mill cops and …
Time for a Reel 12 STRONG review
September 11, 2001 was a day that shook America to its core by bringing war and unrest to its doorsteps. “Never here” we mistakenly thought. That day changed EVERYTHING. There are so many stories of various levels of heroism that have yet to be heard. One such story that hadn’t seen been given a large …
Time for a Reel THE COMMUTER review
Liam Neeson’s career, what can you say? One thing that you can say is that he often finds himself in danger. Thankfully he always has a particular set of skills to solve the problem at hand. Even though his life or death challenges are becoming increasingly unfathomable, Neeson seems beat the odds both on the …
Time for a Reel MAYHEM review
Joe Lynch is still in his adolescent formative years in terms of experience. Knights of Badassdom (2013) and Everly (2015) were the only feature length credits he has to his name thus far. And working from a position of inexperience, he has found a way to entertain audiences without making a huge splash in the …
