Movie Review – The Way Back
I try to write spoiler free reviews, but this time it’s unavoidable. You’ve been warned. I don’t want anyone to be mislead going in. This isn’t a feel-good story. There’s basketball in the movie, but it isn’t about basketball. And it doesn’t have a happy ever after ending. This movie is about the demon of…

Movie Review – Creed II
I really enjoyed this movie. I had very high expectations and lots of excitement when I walked into the theater, and I think this movie delivered on all of those expectations. I think this movie kept a lot of new fans from Creed I, but also tapped into the older fan-base from Rocky IV. This movie…
