What's Right and Wrong With 'the Greatest Showman' (Film Review)
The songwriters behind the award winning La La Land helped create a new musical that brought the "true story" of P.T. Barnum to the big screen. The Greatest Showman chronicles the rise of his circus acts and his desire to be to be famous. It also just slightly presents the struggles the performers go through because they are different. So, how well were those stories told? Was this movie the greatest show on earth? Let's take a look.

Movie Review: 'Kodachrome'
Kodachrome is a wonderful surprise. This story about a father and son finding a place of understanding debuted on Netflix on April 26, amidst the hype and hoopla of the theatrical release of Avengers Infinity War, and is a welcome bit of counter-programming. That said, even in this lovely father and son story centering on Jason Sudeikis and Ed Harris we can’t completely escape the Marvel Universe; Elizabeth "Scarlett Witch" Olson also co-stars.

Anime Review: 'Violet Evergarden' (2018)
Violet Evergarden takes place on the continent of Telesis where a civil war was fought for years. There is practically no one that you will meet in this series who wasn't impacted by the war in some way or another. The first episode begins in a quiet hospital where a blonde girl is recuperating from injuries she sustained in one of the final battles of the war. She expects her direct commander to be waiting for her when she is finally discharged but instead she is greeted by a different officer.

Review: 'Love, Simon'
Coming-of-age films could have the most important duty within the film industry. If successful, it could become iconic and a bit of a trend-setter within a particular era in history.

Movie Review: 'Traffik'
Traffik stars Paula Patton and Omar Epps as Brea and John, a couple on the cusp of an engagement. As they head off for a romantic weekend at a far off mansion owned by their friend Darren (Laz Alonso) and his girlfriend Malia (Roselyn Sanchez), it appears quite certain that John will be popping the question, especially after he gifts the birthday girl, Brea, a 1969 Charger that he built himself.
