The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Aug 14, 2017
And now Batman is back to the misleading chapter titles. There aren’t spies in Flying Spies, there’s only one spy on the plane. After the laziest cliffhanger resolution in the series so far–and there have been some lazy ones–Lewis Wilson and Douglas Croft take a break from c read more
Bridge of Spies (2015)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Oct 7, 2016
Steven Spielberg is this generation’s Alfred Hitchcock in many ways. True, he’s not as much of an audacious experimenter, but he most certainly knows the movie making craft. He understands suspense, good storytelling, and strong production values. Because he still is one of the most ente read more

Spies Like Us (1985, John Landis)
The Stop Button Posted by on Mar 2, 2011
