Film Review: "Mutiny"

"Jason Statham movie" is practically a genre in itself at this point. You know wheat you're getting from a Statham movie. The likelihood is that he'll be playing some sort of former special ops grunt who has escaped his past and is now trying to keep his head down and live a quiet life. Of course, something will happen that requires him to return to the life of violence he has tried to outrun. There is a clear distinction however between Statham's American movies and those he makes in his homeland. An American Statham movie is an over the top action flick of the type that once starred Sly and Arnie, while his British efforts tend to be more grounded, closer to the sort of action thrillers that once starred Charles Bronson. In the former the violence is cartoonish, while in the latter it tends to be grisly.

Makin Waves Song of the Week: "Tide and the Moon" by Cory Blair

The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Tide and the Moon" from "Midheaven," the debut EP of Asbury Park singer-songwriter Cory Blair.


"Summer in the City"

A rainbow hangs over the door to Deep Space Gallery (77 Cornelison). It's about the size of a small boomerang, the color of Lucky Charms, and the texture of a welcome mat. This plush sign of the covenant is brought to you by enthusiastic yarn-tufter SarahGrace, a regular in these display rooms. Roy G. Biv is a guarantor of inclusiveness, and curators Jenna Geiger and Keith Van Pelt made good on that promise by inviting scores of old favorites to contribute work to "Summer in the City," the gallery's volatile tenth anniversary show. But rainbows also come in the wake of downpours. They're a testament to atmospheric turbulence — the gleaming crowns worn by the storm king.


Makin Waves Song of the Week: "Headlights" by Renee Maskin & the Wilder Tide

The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Headlights," the quasi title track from Renee Maskin & the Wilder Tide's debut EP, "In the Headlights," which they will celebrate on Aug. 15 as part of a triple release party with The Extensions and Cussing.
