Philip Brown — Fri, 30 Dec 2016 16:00:40 +0000

Welcome back, folks. It’s still the end of 2016, and I’m still coping with the end of yet another year of my life by handing out a collection of Best Of film awards to directors and celebrities who will never notice or care. But I care, dammit. Way too much. Enough so that I couldn’t...

This jam-packed March kicked off last week with Disney’s latest wonderful family film. This weekend brings us a killer thriller, along with three other wide releases of questionable merit.
