What were Latin Post.com film writer David Salazar's favorite films of 2014? Here is a run down including the honorable mentions which include "The Imitation Game," "A Most Wanted Man," "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes," "Inherent Vice" and others.
In a year with so many Best Actor contenders, sometimes the finest performances get lost by the overcrowded season. One of the finest performances of the year comes from the late Philip Seymour Hoffman for his portrayal in "A Most Wanted Man."
As awards buzz continues to heat up at the box office, the studios bring out some of the summer hits of the summer to the small screen on DVD when the latest new DVD movie releases come out Tuesday. From "Maleficent" to "Planes: Fire & Rescue," Disney is giving options for those who are interested in "Interstellar" or "Big Hero 6" this weekend while Roadside Attractions will give awards enthusiasts an option to "The Theory of Everything."
