RH Review: The Lollapalooza Experience (2018)

After a long four-day weekend of countless live acts, underground after parties, and spending over a hundred dollars in Uber’s; it feels great to be in the AC recapping the Lollapalooza experience. Arriving early on Thursday to see Valee was the perfect way to start off the festival. The energy during “Two 16’s” was insane. […]

[Review] The Sheik

The wrestling community is one of the most loyal circles of fandom I’ve ever experienced. Regardless of the behind-the-scenes nature of predetermined match outcomes, wrestling is one of those things you can’t ever shake off. Like most adults in their late-20s, I grew up watching WWF, but drifted away from the sport as I got […]

[Review] Happy Christmas

Mumblecore has been growing into prominence within the independent film scene in recent years thanks to a few notable filmmakers like Lena Dunham (Girls, Tiny Furniture), Jay and Mark Duplass (Jeff, Who Lives at Home), and Joe Swanberg (Drinking Buddies).

It was the […]

Nevertheless, this stigma floated around for […]

[Review] The Next Black

The Next Black introduces us to the Brave New World of fashion, placing the garment industry in a futuristic context that most of us growing up with stores like H&M or Zara never thought would be possible. The documentary comes at the viewer in a minimalist, straight-forward and tsunami-like manner, similarly to the clothing industry […]

[Review] A Million Ways to Die in the West

Seth MacFarlane made a name for himself with his various TV outings, practically single-handedly overtaking Fox’s Sunday night TV programming with Family Guy, American Dad!, and The Cleveland Show. While each show has its fans, the “MacFarlane” brand of humor has, at times, run long in the tooth. What was once edgy and a legitimate alternative to The Simpsons […]
