Movie Review: Unfinished Business (2015)

Do you ever watch a comedy and wonder where the funny was? Of course you have, probably many times. Well, add Unfinished Business to the mix. The latest Vince Vaughn "comedy" has landed with a thud. Now, I cannot speak for you, but when I saw it, there was very little to even let out a chuckle to. It just played out like a limp noodle. There was no life, no spark, nothing to be interested in. Of course, you probably know that already and it is my fault for going to see it in the first place. I should have known better.

Movie Review: Selma

I recall when I first saw the trailer for Selma, I was intrigued. While I do tend to not give as much weight to real world stories on film, it felt like this was a bit of an important film for the current state of the nation. No, I am not one to really comment in that arena, but it is hard to ignore the timing of its release with the events over the past year. There is no denying that some serious and heavy conversations, but that is for people smarter than I at another time. So far as Selma is concerned, it is far from a favorite film, but there is no denying its effectiveness.
