The Rhythm Section (2020)
by Sara Michelle Fetters - January 31st, 2020 - Movie ReviewsThe Rhythm Section just can’t keep the beat, and for a composition that initially showed so much promise for things to ultimately fall so flat the likelihood I’ll be playing this record again anytime soon is understandably slim.

Vice Squad (1982) – Collector’s Edition
by Sara Michelle Fetters - September 24th, 2019 - Blu-ray and DVDVice Squad is a product of its time.
