‘Red Dead Redemption’ PC Review

Something else that I wax po...[Read More]

That is still the peak of complicated board games for me. This week, Asmodee and Unexpected Games are set to release a complicated masterpiece called...[Read More]

Deadman Standing
Deadman Standing is a low budget western film that revolves around a feud between a family of rich landowners and a small town of poor people. I think? It wasn’t a very easy film to follow.

From that point on the film jumps from past to present to f...[Read More]

It falls short of some of the heights that a film with this magnitude of cast should have reached which is a shame because the story is a promising idea and is for the most part well executed, but this same factor also bogs down some impressive performances. The movie revolves around Ca...[Read More]
