The visual effects in 'Sin City' were groundbreaking in 2005 and they are just as striking more than 20 years later. The characters' treatment of women is dated and problematic at times, but the movie does enough right to remain great.

This movie caught our host, Shane, on a bad day and he might have been a bit grumpy in this review. On the other hand, Aaron loved it. You tell us who is right!

Political thrillers are not our jam; Most times we find them too boring to live up the "thriller" label. Director Ron Howard and a slew of amazing actors earn that label in Frost/Nixon, bringing an entertaining energy to this true story.

Even those that have no interest in professional wrestling will appreciate this film. The entire cast is flawless and we guarantee you'll be reaching for the tissues by the end.

Ryan Coogler's talent is on full display, as is that of the entire cast. Unfortunately, the "Day in the life" approach to Oscar Grant III's story felt manipulative and left a lot to be desired.

All the President's Men (1976) is flawless down to every last detail. The only thing that could hinder one's viewing enjoyment is their level of interest in the subject matter.

Phantasm is one of the most unique and visually creative horror movies out there. The 70s campiness, mixed with the surrealistic qualities, make for a dream-like experience.

This horror anthology has an all-star cast and an undeniably 60s charm. It is an entertaining watch, but it goes more for a PG spooky atmosphere than true scares. Those looking for terror will be disappointed.

We're kicking off our new theme with an action classic, led by a pillar of American Cinema, that helped shape the modern action genre. All due credit is given for its impact, but does it hold up as entertainment over 50 years after its release?

Unfortunately, we end this theme rotation with another disappointment of failed potential. A thought provoking story with an incredible all-star cast just doesn't come together like it should.
