The weekend was a major bust for most of last week’s new movies. Aside from a solid win for the horror film, the other three titles are on track to join this summer’s streak of failures.
During this odd, very busy weekend, Ryan Reynolds and Mary-Louise Parker each have two movies opening wide against one another. For all the die-hard Reynolds and Parker fans out there, a major conundrum is presented: Which movie d...

With the exception of his last film, the unlikely departure ‘Anonymous‘, when you go into a Roland Emmerich movie, you know to only expect two things: Explosions and shoot-outs. As long as that’s all you expect f...
