Arty Chick’s Middleburg Film Festival Download 2018
Another year at a fabulous festival! I wonder how long this little Virginia horse country festival can keep it up. It's sure to burst its seams soon. This year's slate…

Mainstream Chick’s Middleburg Film Festival Download (2018)
Despite a few (hotel reservation and RSVP) potholes on the road to this year’s Middleburg Film Festival, all’s well that ends well! And what an ending it was. The closing…
Review: The Greatest Showman
The Greatest Showman is the type of movie I could watch multiple times – not for the (so-so) plot – but rather, for the musical production numbers filled with heart,…
Logan
Logan could be one of the most divisive Marvel movies of all time. Hardcore fans of the Wolverine mythology may appreciate this dark, R-rated send-off to the most iconic and…
Eddie the Eagle
Eddie the Eagle is a feel-good movie for the masses, inspired by a true story, though dramatically boosted by fictionalized supporting characters and plot points. It’s the story of Eddie…
Pan
I wouldn’t normally go out of my way to see this type of fantasy-adventure, “fun for the whole family” movie, but I was sort of roped into it, so here…
X-men: Days of Future Past
I will admit up front, I haven't seen any of the other X-men flicks. But the good news is that this one stands alone and begs me to watch the…
Prisoners
This one’s tough. The performances are excellent, but I kind of wanted my two-and-a-half hours back. Prisoners is intense and plodding and psychologically taxing, and every parent’s worst nightmare. Hugh…
The Wolverine
C’mon, it’s Hugh Jackman, ripped. Does anything else really matter? If so, then you may have some issues with the movie's inconsistent plot and dialogue. But all things considered, The…
Butter
Yes, indeed. This is a movie about butter -- a butter sculpting competition to be precise. Not something you see all that often, right? But I have not gone out…
Real Steel
Real Steel is essentially Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots (those of you of a certain age know what I’m talking about) with Hugh Jackman. And you know what? I’m okay…
Australia
I kind of wanted to see it when it was in the theaters, but it didn't stay around that long and I missed it. Glad I saved the 9 bucks.…
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Okay, so this movie isn't fine art. And yes, X-Men comic book fans are likely to be disappointed. But hey - it's got Hugh Jackman. And for this chick, that…
