Corky Romano (2001)

 

This was really dumb. I'm a sucker for SNL movies. There were a few funny parts, but most of the time I was hiding my head in shame at how idiotic it was.

Deepwater Horizon (2016)

A dramatized retelling of the BP oil disaster in the Gulf Of Mexico. Makes you think a little more, if only for a moment, about the real cost of filling up your tank.

Collateral (2004)

Cool, dark thriller by Michael Mann. Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx are at their best. The script is polished and the violence nicely paced. This film could have been an unbelievable mess in someone else's hands.

Smokin’ Aces (2006)



This is worth seeing just to watch Jeremy Piven do his thing. As for the film, I get what they were trying to do. A hit is out on some guy, and every crackpot assassin comes around to pay a visit. Nothing new here plot-wise. Still, it's a decent flick. Lots of big names and familiar faces along the way.
