Whiplash snuck into theaters way back in October was a limited release and I obviously didn’t get to see it. It left theaters quickly, and I was left on the internet cold and sad. You see, people kept talkin’ ’bout Whiplash. About how good the acting was. What a surprise. How cool it was. And …

The Boxcar Children
Ruining child classics is one of Hollywood’s favorite past times. But this is not one of those examples. Because Hollywood is not behind this movie, just some low budget independent company.
