Most of the original gang returns for this sequel except for director, Tim Miller. Creative differences arose between Miller and producer/lead actor Ryan Reynolds, who’s really calling all the shots here. Despite different directors, an inflated budget, “Deadpool 2” is more of the same, a lot more. More violence, more crude jokes and a dizzying […]

Thankfully the latest raunchy comedy doesn’t star Zac Efron, but the quality is still equally as bad. Writer/directors Jon Lucas and Scott Moore have created a film aimed at young moms who are tired of trying to be perfect. Their script over exaggerates the difficulties of motherhood and life in general. In the universe of
