What's New At G-POP.net:
Suicide Squad - Melissa Minners reviews the action film based on the DC Comics series.
Excerpt: "A little over a year ago, I heard about a movie adaptation of the DC Comics series Suicide Squad. I had never read the comic book, but I had an awareness of what it was about: criminal elements are rounded up and banded together to fight other evils for the good of mankind. Sounds like a crazy premise and I wasn’t at all sure I wanted to see it, but it got rave reviews from comic book fans and other movie fan friends and so I figured, why not?..."
Synchronicity - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of a sci-fi thriller involving time travel.
Excerpt: "...The score of the film is very much a reflection of the emotions evoked by the visuals of the film. First and Second Wormhole feature an air of excitement, awe and wonderment. Quick synth pulses offer up a sense of action or excitement. Wormhole Fever is a bit ominous sounding – there’s a purveying sense of dread here. There is also a repetitive theme present throughout the score..."
Game of Thrones: The Complete Third Season - Melissa Minners reviews the third season of Game of Thrones on DVD.
Excerpt: "I am woefully behind in my Game of Thrones television series. Truth is, I finished Game of Thrones: The Complete Third Season on DVD months ago. I just haven’t had an opportunity to tell you how I felt about it. Nor had I the opportunity to watch any more seasons of the show. Well, that’s about to change, starting with this review!..."
Battle of the Sexes - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the film based on the 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs.
Excerpt: "...The score of Battle of the Sexes is orchestral, featuring a great deal of jazz. Songs on the album, with the exception of If I Dare by Sara Bareilles, are songs that were popular in the time frame of the story. Jazz is used as a backdrop to the televised battle of words and the actual match between King and Riggs. Pianos and other orchestral instruments are used for the dramatic moments in their personal lives..."
The Accountant - Melissa Minners reviews the action thriller starring Ben Afleck.
Excerpt: "Have you ever felt so lousy that you didn’t really care what you watched? That’s the way I felt when I found The Accountant after scrolling through a number of movie channels. I had little desire to see the film, but that was all that was on television that I was even remotely interested in. Would it grab my attention or cause me to snooze?..."
Septembers of Shiraz - Melissa Minners reviews the soundtrack of the dramatic film that takes place after the 1979 Iranian Revolution.
Excerpt: "...The score of Septembers of Shiraz is rather morose featuring somber string pieces and dark orchestral tracks. Percussion heightens the sense of fear and danger. The few light tracks on the album are bits of memories of the past before the revolution..."
