The Snowman
Starring: Michael Fassbender
Rated R
With the help of a brilliant recruit, the cop must connect decades-old cold cases to the brutal new one if he hopes to outwit this unthinkable evil before the next snowfall.
“The Snowman” keeps the audience on the edge of their seats throughout most of the film. The film is purposely paced slow, but as the story twists it begins to come to a boil.
“The Snowman” has a few problems with timing and some character development and the film is extremely graphic with blood and gore.
It gets a B and is rated R.
Only the Brave
Starring:
Miles Teller, Jeff Bridges and Josh Brolin
Rated
PG-13
Based on the true story of the 'Granite Mountain
Hotshots,' a group of elite firefighters, who risked everything to
protect a town from a historic wildfire.“Only the Brave” examines the world of 'first responders,' who rush to the front lines of massive fires and provide the means to slow and stop the fire's progress.
The
film while paying tribute to these men may go a little overboard in
painting their cinematic portrait, but it really does work for this
movie.
In the end,“Only the Brave” is a well-acted and touching movie well worth seeing.
