Movie Review: BABYLON

BABYLON Director: Damien ChazelleStarring: Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Diego Calva, Jean Smart, Li Jun Li, Jovan Adepo, Flea, Tobey Maguire, Samara Weaving If Damien Chazelle’s film La La Land was a romantic love letter to Hollywood, then Babylon is a darker, jaded look at the seedy side of the industry. The Oscar winner’s fourth film is a sprawling epic telling multiple narratives at a time in Hollywood that saw big changes as it said goodbye to silent films and welcomed in the talkies. Chazelle opens the film with a massive party, one with drugs, alcohol, an elephant, and a big orgy. In attendance is anyoneRead More →

Movie Review: THE ACCOUNTANT

THE ACCOUNTANT Director: Gavin O’Connor Starring: Ben Affleck, Anna Kendrick, J.K. Simmons, Jon Bernthal, Jeffrey Tambor, John Lithgow, Jean Smart, Cynthia Addai-Robinson Ben Affleck is no stranger to the action genre. He’s currently in between Batman projects so he still has the body to take anybody down that gets in his path. The Accountant is slightly different than some of his other genre films. When Christian Wolff was a kid, he showed signs attributed to autism. He was a genius with numbers and had OCD type behavior. It was a time when kids didn’t live in a sensory-friendly world. Even his dad refused to acknowledgeRead More →
