Review: ‘The Birth Of A Nation’ Powerfully Reclaims Turner’s Rebellion

Arriving after its rapturous Sundance premiere, record breaking acquisition with Fox Searchlight, strong (though waning) Oscar buzz, and plenty of controversy with the director’s past actions and current statements, Nate Parker’s “The Birth of a Nation” FINALLY opens in theaters across the country this weekend! It takes place in a familiar antebellum South for this pre-Civil War era, “The Birth of a Nation” follows Nat Turner (Nate Parker), a literate slave and preacher, whose financially struggling owner, Samuel Turner (Armie Hammer), accepts an offer to use Nat’s preaching to subdue unruly slaves by reading pro-slavery scripture passages.

Passengers Trailer: Promising Sci-Fi Thriller Stars Lawrence and Pratt

The one-two punch star power of Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt was inspired casting for “Passengers” and it immediately was on my “most anticipated of 2016” movie list. Audiences should flock to this one based on the casting alone. Lawrence is A+ in my book. A talented actress with movie star charisma who is equally effective in comedy, drama, adventure, etc. can do no wrong. Though I was initial skeptical of his career, Pratt is a funny actor who has showed leading man range beyond anything I ever expected as he sheds his scrappy sidekick, goofball persona. By the way, don’t call “Passengers” original science fiction. It is based on the 1970 Hugo award nominated science fiction short story by Robert Silverberg. Take a look at the trailer below to see why I am excited for “Passengers.”
