“Overboard” Movie Review

May 23, 2018 by Yesica Gonzalez Leave a Comment

“Overboard”, a romantic comedy released in theaters May 4, has been added to the list of remakes of Hollywood’s classics. The movie is a remake of the 1987 version with the same title and was written by Leslie Dixon, who participated in the screenwriting of the new version. The story is about Kate, portrayed by Anna Faris, a single, hard working mother of three girls who is studying to become a nurse. Kate is hired to clean the carpets on an extravagant yacht. The yacht belongs to billionaire playboy Leonardo, portrayed by Eugenio Derbez, who has no consideration for anybody other than himself. Leonardo fires Kate out of the blue.

Fantasy behind innocent face

February 21, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Bree Reyes |Staff Writer| Fifty Shades of Grey earned $100 million in the U.S. and $300 million worldwide after its opening week, according to Forbes, but the opinions of its sexual content, characterization, and plot are scattered. The film depicts the character of Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) encountering Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan). Grey is a wealthy, successful, man, who starts an intimate relationship which explores the practice of bondage, discipline, submission, domination, and sadomasochism (BDSM), which he introduces Anastasia. “What I love is that it has brought the fetish BDSM/kink community up close and personal to what we call the ‘vanilla’ general … [Read more...] about Fantasy behind innocent face

The Grand Budapest Hotel — Film Review

January 24, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Emmanuel Gutierrez |Features Editor| "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is a whimsically snide, nostalgic, and typical Wes Anderson affair—and that’s awesome—loaded with a crap ton of cameos and quirkiness galore. The film is an oddball collection of stories within a story; rather, a novel about the author interviewing the owner of a hotel, with flashbacks set some time between both World Wars composing the majority of the film. Don’t let that deter you from experiencing a charming, intelligent piece of art that seems all too rare. Gustave, the legendary, impressionable concierge played by Ralph Fiennes, has the habit of sleeping with many, if not all his female clients—feeble, … [Read more...] about The Grand Budapest Hotel — Film Review

Blood and guts but not convincing

October 25, 2014 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Emmanuel Gutierrez |Asst. Features Editor| "Fury" directed and written by David Ayer, portrays a visually stunning tale with brawn and guts that may satiate any war genre withdrawals, but disappoints with a mediocre lead actor. As the Allies march their way through the heart of Nazi Germany, the film begins with Wardaddy, played by Bradd Pitt, losing one of the best of his platoon in a tank battle. The empty seat is filled by Logan Lerman’s character Norman, the wide-eyed and innocent, novice soldier skilled in the deadly art of bookkeeping. Much of the plot deals with Norman’s repulsion and reluctance to join the mindless animosity exhibited by his war-hardened … [Read more...] about Blood and guts but not convincing
