Directed by Nick Cassavetes (Alpha Dog, She’s So Lovely, My Sister’s Keeper) John Q is a rather controversial movie about health-care in America. It seems that this movie has been pushed aside due to its subject, and we are here to correct that error. First of all this script is quite real and I believe [...]

Hey lets mix up bank robbery, romance, action, comedy and mystery in one movie! Sounds quite interesting, doesn’t it? But, in reality, this has to be done with great precision and perfect script with solid acting on top of all that, and in Flypaper we see how this mixture almost made it. First of all, [...]

This is the fifth installment of Fast & Furious franchise, and I think that it is a pretty good one, given the genre and the narrative. You don’t watch these types of movies expecting to see some deep drama, or great story but cool action and driving sequences and some hot girls (or guys). Jordana [...]
