The Greatest Showman Review
This fanciful musical based on the life of P.T. Barnum is a rousing crowd-pleaser anchored by a strong triple-threat performance from Hugh Jackman.

Counting down the 10 best movies of 2017 – with a few honorable mentions.
This collection of short-animation films, some of which are Oscars eligible, is incredibly varied in quality.
Aaron Sorkin’s directorial debut is good stuff even if it’s a little heavy on the dialogue, but that is Sorkin’s calling card.
The great Daniel Day-Lewis has informed everyone that this will be our last chance to watch him on film. What a poor exit to a great career.
Michael Haneke is at it again: he loves showcasing the underbelly of people, and he doesn’t disappoint here. Try and suppress your somewhat evil smile at the end.

Fans will love every minute of the action, intrigue, and classic banter in this latest chapter in the “Star Wars” saga; but the film really belongs to fractured hero Luke Skywalker.
This behind the scenes story of the making of so-bad-it’s-good classic “The Room” is a funny, surprisingly empathetic tale of creativity, determination, friendship, and dreams.
Guillermo Del Toro has created a beautiful looking film, filled with great things, that somehow isn’t great.
