As a result, Astrid must enter a series of foster homes and group homes, where she becomes exposed to a wide variety of bad influences, including sex, dru… |

![]() Lured in by a YouTube link to this free full length movie by an FB post, I had plenty of reservations about seeing a sequel to a movie I never heard of. Well, I got pulled in. It isn’t in line with my viewing history: the plot is hugely implausible. I mean, really, getting the ability to pred… |

![]() Ron Shelton made White Men Can’t Jump after Bull Durham and before Tin Cup. His sequence of great sports movies is thus baseball, basketball, golf. This middle one – his hoops hit – nailed the J with its title, even if the rest veers from perfection. White Men Can’t Jump was welcom…

![]() White Boy Rick is more than a primo Matthew McConaughey movie, though it is definitely one of those. It is a darkly funny – basically true – tale of a family gone wrong in a city gone hella wrong, 1980s Detroit. Yann Demange’s film is a grim sociological examination, proctological in its pen…

![]() A must see for drummers and jazz fans, this movie will also please anyone who’s in for some good and tense drama. Miles Teller does a bang up job (pun intended) as the driven musician desperately trying to improve family and make it big. A little cheesy, but the antics are engrossing – so all i… |

![]() When the Game Stands Tall pegs several meters: football movies – coach movies – Bay Area movies. Arguably the greatest Football Movie ever, it is surely the first great Bay Area Football Movie.
