It's more of an idea; a premise. Something sketched out in the authors mind, pitched to a studio and created without really exploring, how or why one should do so. I'm assuming that with a title as brilliantly creative as "The Girl on the Train," other alternative titles could have been: "Commuter Girl," "White Girl Wasted," "Drunk Lady Rides Train," or "Emily Blunt Get's Drunk: The Movie." Whatever the title, it seems quite clear that the script for The Girl on the Train  probably

Three & Above Movie Reviews      I originally started my blog, Three and Above , with the principle of only reviewing good movies; there's enough bad things in the world, I thought, so why not focus on some of the good? Well, we all make mistakes.       Although I'll still review some good movies, I've decided to return to the full spectrum of cinematic critique. If a chef makes a rotten dinner, you tell the chef, or you'll run the risk of getting another bad meal.

THE TOP TEN FILMS OF 2016   By Grant  Kanigan   Before we start: this is by no means the absolute best of 2016; it’s been a busy year, and I haven’t seen every film out there:  Arrival, Deepwater  Horizon, Loving  and a great many others have been raved about, and I haven’t had a chance to see them. I’ll be coming out with a list closer to Oscar night that is a more comprehensive list of the year’s critical darlings; most ‘2016’ Oscar contenders don’ t get screened to the public until later in 2017. I have a feeling  Loving, Jackie, Arrival, Hidden Figures, Gold, Manchester by the Sea, La  La  Land, Fences, Kubo & the Two Strings,  and some unexpected gems might make the list. But I haven’t seen them yet;  so I shouldn’t ‘put the cart before the horse.’ All in all, just because a film didn’t make the list, doesn’t mean it’s bad; I probably just haven’t seen it yet. So, without further ado, here are the ten best films I saw in 2016:   10.  Swiss Army Man
