Saoirse is a child who is the last of the selkies, women in Irish and Scottish legends who transform from seals into people. She escapes from her grandmother's home to journey to the sea and free fairy creatures trapped in the modern world. I've been wanting to see this since I saw the trailer exactly …

FlixChatter Review: Terminator Genisys (2015)
I initially had no desire to see this new Terminator flick; from the trailers that I saw I thought it lacked creativity and originality. But then a couple of weeks ago, James Cameron gave his blessings and said fans of the franchise will enjoy it. Being that I’m a fan of Cameron and love his …

FlixChatter Review: Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015)
There's something so refreshingly frank about this movie right from the start. Though it deals with a difficult subject of terminal illness, the movie is both heartwarming and genuinely funny.

FlixChatter Review: SPY (2015)
I have a confession to make. I haven't seen Bridesmaids nor any of Melissa McCarthy's R-rated comedies The Heat, Identity Thief, and Tammy. I'm not exactly fond of raunchy comedies with all the foul language and gross situations that I don't find the least bit funny. But somehow when I saw the trailer for SPY, I was laughing …
FlixChatter Review: ENTOURAGE (2015)
When Entourage aired on HBO from 2004-2011, I used to watch it religiously. In fact, I thought it’s one of the best shows on TV at the time. But just like most great shows, the last couple of seasons just went downhill. Nevertheless, when the producers announced that a film version was going to come …
