Movie Review: LET HIM GO

LET HIM GO Director: Thomas BezuchaStarring: Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Lesley Manville, Jeffrey Donovan, Booboo Stewart, Kayli Carter Kevin Costner and Diane Lane previously co-starred as Clark Kent’s parents in Man of Steel.

Their daughter-in-law Lorna (Carter) and their grandson live at their ranch until she remarries and abruptly leaves town without warning. One day Margaret witnesses the abuse her grandson and daughter-in-law receive at the hands of herRead More →

Movie Review: HIDDEN FIGURES

HIDDEN FIGURES Director: Theodore Melfi Starring: Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monáe, Kevin Costner, Jim Parson, Kirsten Dunst, Mahershala Ali, Aldis Hodge, Glen Powell Names like John Glenn, Neil Armstrong, Jim Lovell, and Buzz Aldrin are household names thanks to their bravery and willingness to go into space. What about all of those behind the scenes unsung heroes that made it all possible? That’s the idea behind Hidden Figures as it looks at three African-American women who were pioneers at NASA, and yet, no one knows their story. In an aptly used flashback moment that opens the movie, we’re told that even at aRead More →

Movie Rewind: FIELD OF DREAMS (1989)

Originally posted April 8, 2014 FIELD OF DREAMS (1989) Director: Phil Alden Robinson Starring: Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, Gaby Hoffmann, Ray Liotta, James Earl Jones, Timothy Busfield, Burt Lancaster, Frank Whaley In honor of baseball season, I wanted to look back at one of my favorite baseball movies. I asked my Facebook and Twitter followers for their opinions on this topic and A League of Their Own, The Sandlot, and Field of Dreams were, by far, the most common titles given. As much as I love those first two films, I feel like I have watched them quite frequently as they always seem to beRead More →

Movie Review: DRAFT DAY

DRAFT DAY Director: Ivan Reitman Starring: Kevin Costner, Jennifer Garner, Denis Leary, Frank Langella, Josh Pence, Chadwick Boseman, Terry Crews, Ellen Burstyn, Arian Foster, Tom Welling 2014 seems to be the year of Kevin Costner. It’s only April and he has already been featured in three releases, though I must admit I didn’t see either Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit or 3 Days to Kill. I am happy to witness this Costner resurgence – he seemed to have taken a break from acting – since his performance in last year’s Man of Steel was one of that film’s better aspects. We have seen him in numerousRead More →

Movie Review: MAN OF STEEL

MAN OF STEEL Director: Zach Snyder Starring: Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne, Christopher Meloni, Richard Schiff One of the most highly anticipated movies of 2013 is Man of Steel, the latest take on DC Comic’s Superman. 2006’s Superman Returns sought out to be a return to the franchise. After a chilly reception of the oddly cast film, the franchise was dead in the water again. Fresh off The Dark Knight Trilogy, screenwriter David S. Goyer and producer Christopher Nolan give us their take on the DC Comic superhero. The planet Krypton is in grave danger. Jor-ElRead More →

Movie Trailer: MAN OF STEEL

MAN OF STEEL Director: Zach Snyder Starring: Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman Amy Adams as Lois Lane Kevin Costner as Jonathan Kent Diane Lane as Martha Kent Russell Crowe as Jor-El Michael Shannon as General Zod Laurence Fishburne as Perry White Christopher Meloni as Colonel Hardy By the looks of the trailer, the upcoming Superman movie Man of Steel looks to be an origins story. Fans of the series did not have a warm reaction towards the last movie, 2006’s Superman Returns, for numerous reasons. I myself did not appreciate the casting of Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane. Audience members should be relieved because theRead More →
