The Help

Challenging the Status Quo

Elisabeth Leitch

Like the book that came before it, the movie's greatest strength is in its characters, revealed in a screenplay which truly shows the extremes of love and hate and the struggle to navigate the road between what is and what is right.

The Whistleblower

David Bruce, Webmaster

This one is based on a true story, which makes it all that more compelling... Broken families: enough to drive you crazy. And Bosnia, too! Turns out you can't escape corruption anywhere. Thanks to brave (but broken) people like this, things like sex trafficking can be busted. Be driven by service to others!

Attack the Block

Hoodlums and Aliens

Darrel Manson

What makes the story work is that it is a mixture of gangsters and stoners, and even children who have to fight off these vicious aliens, and they do it with whatever weapons are at hand-samurai sword, kitchen knife, baseball bat, super-soaker.

Fright Night

Step Up for Those You Love

Brock & DeArmond

While the remake looks as though it follows the premise of the original accurately, we don't recognize any of the scenes. Maybe that's good; after all, why remake a movie if you're just going to do it scene for scene?

The Fox and the Hound

What Real Friendship Looks Like

Jacob Sahms

Now on Blu-ray. The Fox and the Hound proves that we can be friends with people who aren't like us... so why aren't we trying harder?
