Guest Review: Ouija: Origin of Evil (2016)
I’m going to be honest: my expectations for this movie were not high. This mostly has to do with its predecessor, 2014’s Ouija (brought to you by Hasbro Studios: the same company responsible for next fall’s My Little Pony: The Movie - no, I’m not kidding).

FlixChatter Review: The Accountant (2016)
It's kind of an interesting choice for Ben Affleck to do this movie in the same year as Batman V Superman. Some people call this one as an unconventional superhero movie about an autistic accountant, and it wouldn't be wrong as there's certainly traces of Bruce Wayne in the film protagonist, Christian Wolff.
