KONG Director: Adam WingardStarring: Alexander Skarsgård, Millie Bobby Brown, Rebecca Hall, Bryan Tyree Henry, Julian Dennison, Demián Bichir, Kaylee Hottle, Kyle Chandler The new MonsterVerse kicked off with a reboot of Godzilla in 2014 and has since been teasing the epic showdown of these iconic monsters.

THE BEST AND WORST OF SUMMER 2014

I don’t think the 2014 summer movie season will be remembered for the good movies that came out. Let’s face it, it seemed like each week we succumbed to some pretty disappointing movies at your local cineplex. Like every summer, we had our fare share of comic book movies, sequels, and reboots. There were big action franchises that wanted to continue their reign. Some fared well (X-Men: Days of Future Past), while others left us shaking our head in frustration (The Amazing Spider-Man 2). Here are my picks for the best and worst of the summer season, plus some that were pleasant surprises.THE BEST 1. BOYHOODRead More →

Plant supervisor Joe Brody (Cranston) feels a responsibility toward the events and tragedies that occurred on that day. Over the next fifteen years, he becomes a paranoid conspiracy theorist who believes there is moreRead More →
