Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong, Michael Stuhlbarg, Benjamin Bratt, Scott Adkins, Mads Mikkelsen, and Tilda Swinton
The world is truly topsy-turvy these days. Donald Trump has more than an outside shot at stealing the presidency next Tuesday from Hillary Clinton. The Chicago Cubs have broken a 108 years long losing streak by clinching the World Series earlier this week. To top things off, Doctor Stran...

Romantic comedies are dying a slow death at the mainstream box office. With just About Time, That Awkward Moment, and About Last Night joining the ranks in the last couple of years, it's clear that tales of blissful romance have gone by the wayside. Every once in a while, we're reminded that this endangered speci...

Snowpiercer
Directed By: Bong Joon-ho
Starring: Chris Evans, Kang-ho Song, Go Ah-sung, Jamie Bell, Alison Pill, John Hurt, Tilda Swinton, Octavia Spencer, and Ed Harris
For a guy who supposedly would like to retire from acting in a few years, Chris Evans of Captain America fame seems to be a consistent presence at the box office.

Starring: Tom Hiddleston, Tilda Swinton, Mia Wasikowska, Anton Yelchin, John Hurt, and Jeffrey Wright

Directed By: Wes Anderson
Starring: Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman, Bob Balaban, Jared Gilman, Kara Hayward, and Harvey Keitel

We Need To Talk About Kevin
Directed By: Lynne Ramsay
Starring: Tilda Swinton, John C. Reilly, and Ezra Miller
Some kids are just born monsters. From the moment they arrive, you know they're rotten to the core. Their parents can dish out all the love and affection in the world. They can try to instill some semblance of moral values. They can do everything in their power to give these black sheep normal lives. At the end of the day, they're just pure evil in human form. There's absolutely n... Continue reading ...
