Red 2 is the subsequent follow up to 2010’s cinematic action-comedy Red. After grossing over $90 million domestically, it was really only a matter of when they would make this film rather than if they would make a sequel.

Mini Movie Review: Side Effects
Anti-depressants, anti-anxiety, meds for hyperactivity, etc. . . . Big Pharma is quite a topic these days.

Side Effects is the newest Steven Soderbergh film, and it is quite the departure from his last film, Magic Mike. This is a psychological thriller which is made apparent in this trailer. Rooney Mara and Channing Tatum play a couple, but Rooney Mara's character obviously has some emotional problems. Jude Law plays the psychiatrist who... Continue Reading →
Lost in Previews: Broken City
