Denzel Washington returns as Robert McCall in "The Equalizer 3." Director Antoine Fuqua ("Training Day" 2001) and screenwriter Richard Wenk have kept the formulaic McCall vigilantism, this time in a new setting in a small town in southern Italy. McCall discovers that his new Italian friends [..]

If you enjoyed the first two films in the franchise, then "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3" is for you. Director-writer-star Nia Vardalos remained faithful to the storylines of the originals, while actually traveling to Greece to film the third installment. The story involves the Portokalos [..]

"Moon" is science fiction story about a man experiencing problems as his three-year work contract on a mining colony on the moon draws to a close. The predictable and slow-moving film was put together by first-time director Duncan Jones, and poorly written by Nathan Parker. It [..]
