FlixChatter Review: 99 Homes (2015)

Right from the moment this film was announced, I was immediately hooked by the timely premise and the cast. Set in Orlando, Florida and loosely based on a real-life events, Andrew Garfield plays a twenty-something single dad Dennis Nash who's been struggling to find decent work as a construction worker. His family gets evicted from his family home where …
