Weekend Roundup + Casting news I’m excited about

Hello everyone! I've been away for most of the weekend and away from my laptop so not much to report here in terms of movie watching. My mother in-law and brother in-law are visiting in town so we've been playing tourist around MN since Friday. I was able to finish my Jurassic World review before they …

FlixChatter Review: Jurassic World (2015)

It's been twenty two years since the release of Jurassic Park, the phenomenal sci-fi thriller that's still as timeless as ever when I saw it recently.

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 …
