Rough Night (2017) Review!!!

Synopsis – Things go terribly wrong for a group of girlfriends who hire a male stripper for a bachelorette party in Miami. My Take – With the sudden wave of feminism hitting Hollywood, it’s not surprising this ensemble comedy was hatched to capitalize on the basic idea of replacing girls with guys in a situation we have seen before.

‘Fantastic Beasts’: David Yates Feels “Committed” to Directing All 5 Films!!

As a franchise, Harry Potter is somewhat unique.

Then, out of nowhere, Alfonso Cuaron came in with Prisoner of Azkaban and created … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’: David Yates Feels “Committed” to Directing All 5 Films!!
