‘Batman: Assault on Arkham’ Movie
I was fortunate to know ahead of time that this wasn’t really a “Batman” movie. Yes, the title would lead you to believe that, but this is really more of a Suicide Squad movie. Batman is in it, but he’s more of a supporting character.
Now, the …

The Shop on Main Street
The greatness of East European cinema I guess need no further introduction. The Shop on Main Street is in my own humble opinion the greatest of all masterpieces coming out that area, directed by rather unkown Hungarians Ján Kadár and Elmar Klos.
As with many powerful movies of the mid-twentieth …

Movie Resident Evil: Extinction
