Review: The Rental

By Jaskee Hickman
July 23, 2020
in :  Reviews
Dan Stevens and Alison Brie star in IFC Films' THE RENTAL

The Rental is a pretty straightforward thriller in some ways. With its small budget and cast to go with its short run time, that shouldn’t come as much of a shock. Overall, I liked it and left it mostly satisfied with what was included even if there are a few things that probably could have been fixed in order to …

(L-R) Alison Brie, Nick Offerman, Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks and Will Arnett star in Warner Bros. Pictures' THE LEGO MOVIE 2: THE SECOND PART

Dakota Johnson and Rebel Wilson star in Warner Bros. Pictures' HOW TO BE SINGLE

While I was expecting How To Be Single to be a gushy romantic comedy, it turned out to be fairly level headed in its love proselytizing. The …

Review: Get Hard

Kevin Hart and Will Ferrell star in Warner Bros. Pictures' "Get Hard"

The thought of spending hard time in prison has the ability to frighten even the bravest people who don’t seem like the type that would frighten easily. That’s a place where anything goes, and forces you to answer a great deal of questions about yourself. For some, fighting through that is something that they have the ability to do before …
