Bad Times at the El Royale

The film contains 30 songs from the old days of rock and roll. The singing by Cynthia Erivo rivals Lady Gaga in A Star is Born.

The Old Man & the Gun

It was hard to resist the emotions flowing from saying goodbye to the legendary Robert Redford.

White Boy Rick

If we have to send drug dealers to prisons for long terms, why are drug companies allowed to make billions while feeding the opioid crisis that is killing thousands of Americans?

Searching and A Simple Favor

Searching and A Simple Favor are two films flying under the cinematic radar screen.

BlacKkKlansman

I join my nephew John Hammerle, a lawyer and movie reviewer in Chicago, in describing BlacKkKlansman as the best film released to this date in 2018.

The Equalizer 2

No one, and I mean no one, has ever killed with more fervent passion than Robert McCall.

Sicario: Day of the Soldado

This film is a perfect example of why I see most movies alone.  I almost always enjoy the ride, and few others share my enthusiasm.

Hotel Artemis

The only creative thing about this film is the inventive name of the characters ranging from Waikiki, Niagara, Honolulu, Acapulco and Everest.

Ocean’s 8

This film reminded me of Book Club only with talented actresses 20 years younger.
