FILM REVIEW: Brian Banks

Dwight Brown, NNPA Newswire Film CriticAugust 8, 2019

The real Brian Banks, the subject of this movie, lived through an ordeal that was tragic, inspiring and often profound, something is lost in this one-dimensional retelling of his life experiences. Something turns his extraordinary story of resilience into a decent but ordinary made-for-TV-like movie.

Movie Review: Ride Along 2

Dwight Brown, NNPA News Wire Film CriticJanuary 20, 2016

Too soon. As the opening credits start to roll, you wonder why the producers didn’t’ give moviegoers a real break between “Ride Along” (2014) and “Ride Along 2” (2016). Two years is not enough time to make audiences yearn for more, not enough time to take this franchise to the next level.
