Solace **½ (2015, Anthony Hopkins, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Abbie Cornish, Colin Farrell, Marley Shelton, Xander Berkeley) – Movie Review
Director Afonso Poyart’s 2015 serial killer thriller provides a good role for the 77-year-old Anthony Hopkins – it’s the main role, when parts for Sir A are difficult to organise. He grabs it eagerly, not […]
