Movie News and Views

I am launching my new blog Movie News and Views which is dedicated to the love and appreciation of cinema. I will post reviews of films currently playing in theaters, new DVD releases and old favorites. There will be postings on news and information regarding upcoming films. I will also have postings on actors, actresses, directors, etc. that I admire. In the future, when the blog is more established, I hope to post interviews with people who are involved in the filmmaking process.

DVD Mini Review - The Reaping

In Stephen Hopkin's film Hillary Swank plays a former ordained missionary who now tries to disprove miracles. She lost her faith when she lost her family in Africa. But her former mentor Father Costigan (Stephen Rea) warns her that she is in danger. And soon after that she is called upon to look into a situation that is seems cultish and contains a number of plagues.

What can I say about this film. It is not good. There were moments that held my attention. But most of it didn't make sense. The only reason that I rented this film is because I like Rea.
Surely he can do better than this. And so can Swank. For absolute horror fans only.
