FlixChatter Review: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (2018)

When this movie came across my screen as I fired up Netflix, I knew this is the kind of movie I'd enjoy. Billed as a 'celebration of literature, love, and the power of the human spirit,' it's a charming film set in an English island during WWII. It certainly helps that I'm an Anglophile and British …

When an action film is released late in the summer season, it’s usually a lower budget fare that studios doesn’t want to spend too much money promoting it and the movie itself is not that good.

Rental Pick: LOVING VINCENT (2017)

In a story depicted in oil painted animation, a young man comes to the last hometown of painter Vincent van Gogh to deliver the troubled artist's final letter and ends up investigating his final days there. Billed as the world's first fully painted animation feature, naturally each scene is worth framing. It's a gorgeous film …
