"BRIDGE OF SPIES" (2015) Review
Several years ago, I read an article in which Steven Spielberg had expressed a desire to direct a James Bond movie. It has been over a decade since the director had made this comment.

"SAVING MR. BANKS" (2013) Review
When I first saw the trailer for the recent biopic, "SAVING MR. BANKS", I knew I would like it. First of all, the movie was about the development of one of my favorite movies of all time, the 1964 musical "MARY POPPINS". And two, it featured some very humorous moments that I personally found appealing. Not long after the movie first hit the theaters, I rushed to see it as soon as I possibly could. ( Read more... )
