CREED II Director: Steven Caple, Jr. Starring: Michael B. Jordan, Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, Phylicia Rashad, Dolph Lundgren, Florian Munteanu, Russell Hornsby It’s been thirty years since Apollo Creed was killed in the ring by Russian athlete Ivan Drago (Lundgren). In this age of reboots and reunions, Creed II takes a similar approach to Rocky IV by reuniting Creed and Drago in the ring, but this time it’s the next generation of boxers. Boxing promoter Buddy Marcelle sees an opportunity to pit Apollo’s son, Adonis (Jordan), up against Ivan’s son, Viktor (Munteanu). Despite being the heavyweight champion, Adonis feels the need to prove himself andRead More →

BLACK PANTHER Director: Ryan Coogler Starring: Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright, Martin Freeman, Andy Serkis, Sterling K. Brown, Angela Bassett, Daniel Kaluuya, Forest Whitaker We were first introduced to Black Panther, played exceptionally well by Chadwick Boseman, in Captain America: Civil War.

As we saw in the previous movie, T’Challa/Black Panther’s father was killed at the United Nations explosion. T’Challa is now the rightful heir to the throne taking his place as the new king of the African nation, Wakanda. He’s inRead More →

CREED Director: Ryan Coogler Starring: Michael B. Jordan, Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, Phylicia Rashad, Tony Bellew Maybe after six films moviegoers would have guessed that the Rocky franchise was complete after Sylvester Stallone returned to the role for 2006’s Rocky Balboa. Here we are again with another film in the franchise, but this is considered more of a spinoff as we follow the offspring of Apollo Creed, Carl Weathers’ character in the first four films. His son, Adonis (Jordan), never knew his father who died before he was born. As a young kid, he spent many years in juvie getting into fight after fight untilRead More →

FANTASTIC FOUR Director: Josh Trank Starring: Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Bell, Toby Kebbell, Tim Blake Nelson What’s worse? A bad movie with a stupid premise that should never have been made or a bad movie that stems from a beloved source material, has an exciting and talented cast, and a promising director? I often ask myself this question when I see bad movies. Fantastic Four falls into that second category. There seemed to be hope that a reboot of this Marvel property would produce something to help us forget that there were already two Fantastic Four films that were made inRead More →

THAT AWKWARD MOMENT Director: Tom Gormican Starring: Zac Efron, Michael B. Jordan, Miles Teller, Imogen Poots, Mackenzie Davis, Jessica Lucas Thank God I enjoy these three actors because these types of “bromance” movies can be a bit much. Mikey (Jordan) is probably the most successful one of our guys. He works as a full time doctor and seemed to have it all. He got married at a really young age, and now his wife Vera (Lucas) wants a divorce and is sleeping with her lawyer. His two best friends Jason (Efron) and Daniel (Teller) are still living the single life and are excited to haveRead More →
