G-S-T Review…For a Good Time, Call…
For those of you who grew up in the 1980’s, or were old enough to experience that period of filmmaking, it was a great era for the movie industry. There were so many movies that made us laugh, cry and feel a myriad of other emotions. One genre really stands out during that period; comedy. Not just comedy, but female driven comedies. Goldie Hawn was the queen of comedy films in the 1980’s. Movies like Private Benjamin, Protocol and Overboard were among the many great successes of that period. Post-1980’s we saw a sharp decline as female comedies seemingly faded into the sunset. Three decades later Bridesmaids comes out swinging…

G-S-T Review…Cosmopolis
In a day and age where comic book flicks are hitting the big screen every summer and reboot films are a dime a dozen, it’s nice to see a different type of film. Cosmopolis certainly qualifies as different and then some. Will this movie become a mainstream hit…no. Will people go see the movie just because Robert Pattinson is in it…yes. Regardless of the box office numbers this film achieves, it truly is unique, albeit strange and quirky. Cosmopolis is based upon Don DeLillo’s novel of the same name, marking his thirteenth career novel; published in 2003.

G-S-T Review…Premium Rush
Every summer we are introduced to some incredible blockbuster movies. Some are memorable and others, not so much. Some fly under the radar and surprise us at a time when we need a refreshing change. There is always a big push during the final weeks of the summer as movies fight for box office attendance. This summer has been nothing less than stellar with some of the blockbuster hits delivering in spades. But what about the smaller budget films, that aren’t Indie flicks, but aren’t of the $200 million dollar variety. Premium Rush falls somewhere in the middle of everything with a modest budget, by Hollywood standards. It’s a refreshing…
