Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer Score – (None Available Yet)
A writing assignment from a teacher, played by Martin Freeman, and his talented student, played by Jenna Ortega, entangles their lives outside of the simple protege setting, and places them on a crash course that could force them to confront their darkest desires and purposes.
More of a drama then a thriller, if you love these two actors, then I can only imagine you will like their performances. It’s a slimy subject matter, but I’m interested to see where these two talented actors take it.

The UnderDoggs – Releasing on Streaming
Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer Score – (None Available Yet)
When washed up football star Jaycen, played by Snoop Dogg, is sentanced to community service teaching pee-wee football in his hometown of Long Beach, he uses it to reshape his image, transforming the foul-mouthed Underdoggs into champions. Along the way, he just so happens to transform himself and rekindle his love of the game.
This looks to have a lot more heart then just a ranchy experience like Soul Plane or a twist on Bad News Bears and Mighty Ducks. I’m interested to see if Snoop can carry the more important scenes, but am willing to give him a chance.
