“Cocktail” helped the actor Tom Cruise to become more famous in Hollywood; however I don’t believe that this is his best film from his initial stages. If I had to chose between “Cocktail”, “Top Gun” and “Risky Business”, I prefer to watch “Top Gun” and putting “Cocktail” the least movie …

Slasher movies based on holidays are so commonplace that they have become cliched. Thankskilling, April Fool’s Day, Halloween, Leprechaun, Uncle Sam, and My Bloody Valentine are some of the big examples. All we need are movies for Yom Kippur and Colombus Day. Heck, some can make …
