A Quick Fix To Award Shows.

Have you ever wondered what it’d be like if you could go back and revisit life altering decisions?
A Good Rated-R Comedy! | “No Hard Feelings”
We love it when a movie star just goes for it. We love it when an A-List personality and very talented actor decides it’s time to say “fuck it” and throws everything against the wall when making a project. And we especially love it when it’s in a HARD R-rated comedy.

“Bones And All” Will Consume All Your Thoughts & Emotions
I never would have thought that I would be tearing up on the train watching a young man desperately pleading with his girlfriend while bleeding out on the floor of a dusty dorm apartment.

“The Blackening” Is A Surprise In The Best Way. It’s Eminently Self Aware And It Works.
The perfect plane movie. Possibly the best plane movie experience I have ever had.
