Movie Review – Devotion
—
It’s hard not to give this movie a higher grade than a C+, but it lacks the polish that comes with a higher grade. Overall the acting was good, with a few moments of greatness. But it felt like there was a distance between the actor and the audience. There are too many scenes of…

Movie Review – Greyhound
This is twice in one week that Tom Hanks has been in the navy here. A couple of days ago I watched Captain Phillips, and today it’s Greyhound, so Mr. Hanks crossed from the Merchant Navy to the Royal Navy, or whatever the American equivalent is. Greyhound is an adaptation of a CS Forester novel…
