Movie Breakdown: Every Breath You Take (Noah)

Pre-Screening Stance: You know, it’s got a pretty bang-up cast – Casey Affleck, Michelle Monaghan, Sam Claflin – and the trailer paints a somber sort of stalker thriller. I say, why not. Post-Screening Ramble: On...

Movie Breakdown: Concrete Cowboy

Movie Breakdown: The Toll

Pre-Screening Stance: I don’t know anything about anyone involved with The Toll, but it definitely has a creepy trailer. Also, when I first received a press release for the film, I hit google for more...

Movie Breakdown: The Vault

Pre-Screening Stance: You know, I don’t believe I’ve seen anything that Freddie Highmore has been in (it’s largely been TV shows – The Good Doctor, Bates Motel) since he was on the precipice of exiting...
