Blue Velvet (1986)
Blue Velvet is a film I've seen so many times in my life I don't even need to re-watch it to write about it. But I did recently see it again, finding the decades have altered my perception of it, and that, perhaps, it is not shocking enough, not twisted enough to satisfy the jaded sensibilities of today's audiences. After all, today, Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) and his shabby cohorts seem to pale in comparison to the mass-killers and deadly murderers that infest modern society, sometimes at the highest levels of power; at other times, simply random fuses lit, waiting to blow the cold chill of death across the face of the 24/7 news cycle, before being supplanted and forgotten in the wake of the next great tragedy or slaughter.

"The Spy's Betrayal: A Gangster Story"
It was a typical night in the city, the streets were dark and quiet, and the only thing that could be heard was the sound of footsteps coming from a lone figure walking down the sidewalk. The figure was a man in his mid-twenties, tall and lean, with a sharp jawline and piercing blue eyes. His name was Jack, and he was a spy.

"The Adam Project,"
In "The Adam Project," science fiction author David Brin's idea of correcting mistakes through time travel is explored through the story of Adam Reed, a snarky action hero who travels back in time to prevent a mistake from occurring. The film follows two versions of Adam, one in the present as a 12-year-old boy dealing with the trauma of his father's death, and the other in the future as a grown man on a mission to correct his past. The film masterfully balances action and comedy as the two Adams navigate their differences and ultimately learn from each other. With a strong cast and impressive production design and special effects, "The Adam Project" promises to be a thrilling and emotional popcorn pleasure for audiences.
