This Week In Movies: ‘Batman v Superman,’ ‘Born To Be Blue’

03.21.2016 | By Jack Rico |

We’re a little more than half-way through March and this week’s movies offer a little somehting for everyone.

The “1-4-0″: #IntotheStorm is a Twister knockoff that offers some great VFX natural disaster scenes, but ultimately falls short on story and acting. Read More
