A film where a talented director and superstar actor are simply going through the motions, lending an undertone of apathy that’s impossible to overcome.
“Retribution”
A tired ticking clock thriller with a generic story that delivers few thrills. Even the biggest Neeson fan is going to leave the theater disappointed.

A coming of age story about finding your cultural identity that will speak to teenagers who are struggling to find their place in the world.
“Je’vida”
A heartbreaking yet empowering film about reclaiming your roots and your true self in a world that would rather ignore your existence.

A human interest piece with varying degrees of success, this documentary is all about folks in the carpeting industry who are chasing the American Dream yet long to be somewhere else.
