#REVIEW: “DEADPOOL 2”
Review by David Baldwin for Mr. Will Wong
The marketing for Deadpool 2 has been nothing short of amazing. The Trailers. The Social Media clips. That bonkers Music Video featuring CĂ©line Dion(!) and a dancing Deadpool. Every single element has been on-point and has only fueled anticipation for the R-rated Sequel. Suffice it to say, Deadpool 2 arrives in theatres this week with large stiletto heels to fill.

#REVIEW: “TULLY”
Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong
While quiet of late, Canadian-born Writer/Director Jason Reitman delivers on all fronts another notch in his already very prolific catalog with Tully. The Movie is truly eye-opening for those whom have never experienced hands-on motherhood, and something to relate on a deep level if they have.
Tully focuses on Marlo (Charlize Theron) as she and her husband Drew (Ron Livingston) are about to welcome their third child into the world. Their first two ...
