Gold Rush Or Bust(ed)
on May 13, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
The story of rags to riches has been told over and over, it's rare when one can keep you entertained, Gold is one such film.
The plot is nothing new, yet we willingly fall into step with the actors as they overnight go from the whipping boy to the man of the hour. We witness their seemingly miracle wealth grow and than witness it's unexplainable disappearance.
I recommend tagging along to discover how this rags to riches story turns out. Fools Gold is a powerful commodity amoung the rich and greedy.

Don't believe PETA
on May 13, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
All of the controversy surrounding the filming of this movie, which was later confirmed to be a hoax, shouldn't deter you from seeing this wonderful film. The studio took a chance and made this film, and movie goers should embrace it.
Yes there is one very sad scene in the movie, but the rest will have you laughing and cheering. As a movie lover and a dog lover I highly recommend this film.

What's Happened To Will
on May 6, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
Another mediocre performance by Will Smith. The supporting cast are mostly amazing, sadly they cant do much to save this film.
I know there are many Will Smith fans who know he can do serious work well, but like with the last disappointment, Collateral Beauty was a let down

Building Fences Around Your Heart
on May 6, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
What can be said about this film besides the obvious. It's great cast all perform magnificently. The film based on a play, at times feels as if the actors are performing their dialogue on stage.
Denzel and Viola are great together, and the heartbreak each one goes through is evident in their performance. This is as must have Blu Ray to any serious collector.

Family Business Goes Belly Up
on May 6, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
When a movie comes out starring two very popular actors, it's hard to pass up on the blu ray. Sadly the film barely lives up to the anticipation. Don't get me wrong, it's good but there was something holding it back from reaching my expectations. I do recommend this film if you are a fan of either Fassbender or Gleason who is just great in this film.

Deadly number cruncher
on April 8, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
Ben Affleck gives a heartfelt performance of a man dealing with personal issues who is forced to defend both himself and a woman he's fallen in love with. Not since Argo has the viewer become a part of the action. The twist is almost easy to spot, almost as if a calling card is left in several scenes. Despite that, The Accountant is a very good movie and well worth investing in.

Greatness brought down by the past
on March 12, 2017
Posted by: Chitowncynic
Verified Purchase:Yes
I will omit any statements on the allegations against star, director Nate Parker and will just say this is a very well done film. The acting is on par with great films of the past. The sad times that are represented in this film need to have the spotlight shown upon them.
Also I'd like to mention that most Blu Rays come with a slip cover, but every once in awhile you get a slip cover that contains a flip open case with additional artwork on it. In the past such cases graced every season of Vikings and most recently on The Revenant.
Don't pay attention to the allegations, this is a well done film and should be honored for that alone.

Intelligent life comes to Earth.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This film is truly amazing. Both Adams and Renner bring a true sense af acting ability to their roles. Told in a story line that some found confusing. Since I see dozens of films a month it was refreshing to see a movie thats not cookie cutter. This film is equal blend of flashbacks and flash forwards that made it an amazing film to watch and re-watch and caused the confusion to many movie goers. Don't miss this out of the ordinary film.

Seven is a crowd.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie is hands down a talent showcase. The film itself is very good, it tells the story of a couple men, one coming to terms with his life being stagnant and the other, a madman who leaves a particular calling card when he kills. Oh and it has the amazing Christopher Walkin, who brings a sense of slow boil to every role.
