Movie Review – The Marksman
—
After sleeping on it, I think I finally figured out my opinion of The Marksman. It wasn’t great, but it wasn’t trash. Liam Neeson was exactly what you’d expect. He sees a wrong and he will fix it with his certain set of skills. Always. I just looked him up and discovered that he is…

Jill’s Top 10 Movies of 2020
Well, let’s start by saying 2020 sucked, movie-wise. At least in the theatrical releases. With the pandemic keeping us inside, theaters have been (mostly) closed all year — tough for film fanatics like us. The trickle of new wide release films hasn’t provided much in the way of outstanding offerings: I’ve had to fill in…

Indie Review-Beast Mode
Beast Mode is a hidden gem of a horror film. It stars former child actor C. Thomas Howell. His comedic performance makes the whole film. What’s Good About Beast Mode This is a solid horror-comedy. And if you’re looking for something that’s light on gore, this is a great pick. It also has some good…
