Andrea’s Angle | “Strays” – Hilarious and Surprising
When I saw the first trailer for Strays, I really wanted to see it. First, nothing about it seemed like the typical dog movie.

Ben’s Breakdown | “Red, White & Royal Blue” is almost a fairy tale come true.
Adapting books to the big screen is not new. Many Hollywood blockbusters came from an original novel. Many times it works. Sometimes it fails pretty badly. And sometimes you get something that is somewhat good but can’t snag that elusive gold ring. As romantic comedies go, this one is pretty basic. The adult child of…

Andrea’s Angle | “Shortcomings” – Excellent Performances, Story Falls Short
With this film, I was so excited to see it. I love Randall Park in every performance he’s been in and was excited to see his directing. I also was looking forward to seeing Sherry Cola and Justin H. Min, as I love the work they’ve been in. The story sounded compelling, but after watching,…

Andrea’s Angle | “The Miracle Club” – Story Drags, Performances Shine

Andrea’s Angle | “Book Club: The Next Chapter” – Fun and Endearing
One of the elements I liked the best when I was thinking about this film was that it focuses on a much-neglected group, older women. As a woman who is creeping higher in age myself, I appreciate a story that I can relate to and that shows there’s life in your seventies. So I went…

Andrea’s Angle | “Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret” – Beautifully Endearing

What I was most concerned with in watching this movie was whether it could capture the unique quality of Judy…

Andrea’s Angle | “Polite Society” – Jane Austen Meets Bollywood Fun
From the second I saw the trailers for this movie, I wanted to see it. It looked like a combination of several types of films I like, incorporating martial arts and Bollywood style. It looked fun.

Ben’s Breakdown | “Renfield” is Therapeutically Gory and Fun!
We all know of Dracula. He, and vampires in general, stand at the pinnacle of horror mythology. But what do we know of Renfield? He was made Dracula’s “unwilling assistant” over a century ago. It is now the present day, and what has this existence done to him? I couldn’t wait to see Renfield. Given…

Andrea’s Angle | “Champions” – Heartwarming Win

I love stories that explore characters and show how much we have in common with each other. I also have seen Woody Harrelson in other films and have…
