Movie Breakdown: The Commuter (Noah)
Pre-Screening Stance: It’s my first film of the year and though I know it’s another over-plotted, run-of-the-mill action flick by Jaume Collet-Serra and his elderly star, Liam Neeson, my optimism is high. Post-Screening Ramble: Jaume...

Movie Breakdown: Justice League (Noah)
Pre-Screening Stance: It’s hard for me to think anything but horribly negative thoughts about Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, as it is absolutely one of the biggest failures of a film, big-budget of otherwise,...
Movie Breakdown: Justice League
Pre-Screening Stance: For a while now I’ve been trying to get myself excited for Justice League, but I just haven’t been able to get over the “yeah whatever” hump. With that being said, I’ve yet...
