    Avengers: Endgame

    Eleven years ago, Iron Man changed comic book movies forever. Not only was the movie great, it was the beginning of a journey through the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with each film offering something new while also being connected to one large story.

    Oscars 2019 – Who Should Win? (Part One)

    The Oscars can’t get it right every year. The truth is, we’ve been spoiled. While the right films rarely win, they usually at least get nominated. Not this time. For the last four years in a row, the best movie of the year has been up for Best Picture. This year, the crowning achievement of…

    It’s that time of the year again. Lights are glowing. Music is going. Food is flowing. That’s right — it’s Oscar season!

The film stars Ewan McGregor as both Jesus and Satan and features cinematography by three-time Oscar-winner Emmanuel Lubezki. Christian movies have a checkered past, but writer/director Rodrigo García breathes new life into the genre. This is…

  • The Revenant

    The Revenant

    Let’s just get this out of the way: DiCaprio is magnificent in The Revenant. Give him an Oscar. It’s a part that requires a passion very few other actors possess, or at least are capable of revealing. Then again, I did say “very few.” That’s because it wouldn’t take much to see Daniel Day Lewis…
