Awards season took another leap forward today as the 2017 Golden Globe nominations were announced.

Synopsis – Based on the true story of two young men, David Packouz and Efraim Diveroli, who won a $300 million contract from the Pentagon to arm America’s allies in Afghanistan. My Take – The craziest part of this Todd Philips directed & Bradley Cooper produced film would be that its based on a true story (well at least partly). Similar in tone to Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, … Continue reading War Dogs (2016) Review!!
