Film Review: Chaotic Comedy ‘Moms’ Night Out’ Has Wholesome Content, Toxic Attitude
Submitted by NickHC on May 9, 2014 - 2:04pmCHICAGO – Liberty is a concept expressed only in irony with “Moms’ Night Out,” a female-driven minivan comedy that instructs ultimately to listen to thy husband for it is Biblical, even if thy husband is a child himself.

Blu-ray Review: Overwritten Script Fails Emotional Core of ‘October Baby’
Submitted by BrianTT on September 20, 2012 - 2:16pmCHICAGO – “October Baby,” which has generated a bit of controversy as we rarely see widely-released films that preach so directly to the pro-life choir and was recently released on Blu-ray and DVD, is an incredibly frustrating film.

CHICAGO – When reading the plot synopsis for the film “October Baby,” there were a few things I already expected. “A college freshman’s world is rocked when she learns she is the adopted survivor of an attempted abortion” (IMdb).

Luckily for them, the film is still salvaged by some strong acting performances and some engaging visuals.
