When I first heard about this movie, all I needed to hear was Bob Odenkirk to be invested in checking out the film. Bob Odenkirk is turning the everyman into an art form and I am here for it. What I hoped for was solid actors around him and a fun movie. I got way…

You, Me, & Tuscany: Emotional and Hilarious
When I saw the trailers for You, Me & Tuscany, I thought it sounded fun and much like most romantic comedies, a film that I would enjoy, especially with the cast.

Nobody 2: Fun Action
When I saw that Universal was making Nobody 2, I wasn’t certain that the film would be able to recreate the same fun as Nobody. It is always hard to recreate that same sense of fun in a second movie. However, after watching the screening for Nobody, it is just as much fun action as…

Oh, Hi: Odd Dark Comedy
Billed as a romantic comedy, Oh, Hi was a film I was intensely curious about. The bits I’d seen looked funny and there were a couple of the actors that I really like. What baffled me after watching is that it is far more of an odd dark comedy than a romantic comedy. While far…

Bride Hard: Ridiculously Funny
When I read the description of the movie Bride Hard, I was hopeful for a funny movie with two actresses that have a record of comedy films. Rebel Wilson and Anna Camp were great in Pitch Perfect. After watching the movie, I found the action scenes ridiculously funny but the film was a bit too…
