Movie Review: JUSTICE LEAGUE

The moment many DC Comics fans have been waiting for is finally here. Zack Snyder’s vision for a DC Cinematic Universe began back in 2013 with Man of Steel, which, due to a less than optimistic Superman and a very controversial ending, led to mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.

Director Series: BEN AFFLECK

Ben Affleck is a man of many talents. We were all introduced to Ben Affleck as an actor. Going all the way back to School Ties and Dazed and Confused, Affleck has been in our pop culture lexicon. Then, in 1995, we learned of his brilliant talents as a writer when he won his first Academy Award as a screenwriter (alongside frequent collaborator and friend Matt Damon) for Good Will Hunting (at least those of us who believed he really did co-write that script learned that). Then, in 2007, when Affleck released his first directorial feature, Gone Baby Gone, (which he also wrote) we all learned that Good Will Hunting was no fluke.

Today, Affleck is, without question, a superstar director. With the recent release of Live By Night, he has directed four feature films. Three of these were massively critically acclaimed, and one which reached the absolute zenith by winning the Academy Award for Best Picture. Even the mixed reviews given to Live By Night represent a respect for Affleck’s directorial vision.

EDITORIAL: Who Should Host The Oscars?

We are now less than three months away from the 89th Annual Academy Awards! The race has begun and films like La La Land, Moonlight, Manchester By The Sea, Silence and so many more are campaigning in full force.

The National Board of Review just named the aforementioned Manchester By The Sea as the best film of the year (and it is pretty freaking great), The New York Film Critics Circle named La La Land their best film of the year, and Moonlight won the Gotham award for best film of the year, so the race is pretty open right now. But I'm not here to talk about the race, and to predict what film will win what. I love predicting the Oscar winners and nominees, I do it all the time, but the most interesting aspect of the 89th Annual academy awards, is who will take on the challenge of host?

Movie Review: THE ACCOUNTANT

Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) is a very reliable accountant who is employed by big corporations to check their financial status. Yet, that's not all that there is to him: he seems to be in business with the biggest criminals in the world, he knows how to shoot from a mile away, and he owns a Pollock and a Renoir among many other mysterious things.

Movie Review: THE ACCOUNTANT

The Accountant is a 2016 action-thriller directed by Gavin O’Connor (notable for his films Warrior and Miracle) and is the story of Christian “Chris” Wolff who is a forensic accountant/financial consultant who does work for dangerous people and has a very particular set of skills (to steal from another film) that make him lethal. This film stars Ben Affleck, Anna Kendrick, Jon Bernthal, J.K. Simmons, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, and John Lithgow. This is an extremely strong and intriguing film that is one of the best action films of the year.
