THE GOOD DOCTOR - "PILOT - Burnt Food" - Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore), a young surgeon with autism and savant syndrome, relocates from a quiet country life to join the prestigious St. Bonaventure hospital's surgical unit. Alone in the world and unable to personally connect with those around him, his only advocate, Dr. Aaron Glassman (Richard Schiff), challenges the skepticism and prejudices of the hospital's board and staff when he brings him in to join the team. Shaun will need to work harder than he ever has before, as he navigates his new environment and relationships to prove to his colleagues that his extraordinary medical gifts will save lives. The highly anticipated series premiere of "The Good Doctor" airs MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 25 (10:01-11:00 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network. (ABC/Liane Hentscher)

Â
The initial takeaway from Last Rampage: The Escape of Gary Tison’s is that Robert Patrick (TV’s The Unit, Terminator 2: Judgment Day) has never been better. As the titular character, Patrick is a force of nature, but thankfully director Dwight Little (Murder at 1600, Marked for Death) has many more wonderful cards in the deck.

I’m writing this in a haphazard fashion, so forgive the random stream of consciousness as I was just thinking about Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, a flick I definitely want to see. This relates to the salmon aside I’ll mention later in the review, but for now let’s concentrate on American Assassin. Review is below and sorry for the lateness!
Marlon Wayans has always been a gifted and refreshingly unpredictable comedic actor. Though going for the joke is a great avenue, Wayans admits that he’s grown as an artist during his Marlon journey. Check out the video below for details!
Two Blu-rays are being offered up this week on CinemAddicts. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which has been just viewed twice, plus a Sealed, Never Used Copy of Warner Archive’s Freebie and the Bean goes to the lucky winner! Entry details below!!

With such films as The Drop and most recently What Happened to Monday, Noomi Rapace has risen up my favorite actors list. Her latest film Unlocked hits Blu-ray November 14. Details on the disc and the movie is below!!
Grammy wininng singer/songwriter/guitarist Gary Clark Jr. has recorded a version of the Beatles classic “Come Together” which is featured on the trailer for Warner Bros. Picture’s Justice League. Details on the track is found after the jump.
One of the films I’m looking forward to in October is Jungle, the latest flick from Wolf Creekdirector Greg McLean. Daniel Radcliffe is the headliner in this survivalist adventure that’s based on a true story, and this may be Radcliffe’s most physical demanding role to date.
