I’ve been a movie addict ever since when I was a young girl who spent 10 cents to see movies playing at our local church auditorium on Saturday afternoons.

Do we ever really know everything that is happening in our country, let alone our community? “Check Point” poses that question and then lays out a scenario in which the community members of a sleepy town begin to realize there is a terrorist sleeper cell in their midst. The thriller was filmed on location in Wilmington, North Carolina with a cast including Bill Goldberg (“The Longest Yard”), Kenny Johnson (“Bates Motel”), and Michelle Lee (“The Hunted”), along with Fred Williamson, Tyler Mane, Mindy Robinson, Olga Safari, Kane Hodder, Krista Grotte, Ricky Harris and Niko.
In “The Messenger,” a film directed by Oren Moverman, Woody Harrelson plays the crusty Captain Tony Stone, who takes the newbie, Staff Sgt. Will Montgomery (Ben Foster) under his wing, and teaches him all the ins and outs of the job.

They look at charts and study strategy and have “informed opinions.” And then bullets fly and soldiers die and it’s such a shock. F–k that! What did they think it was gonna be like? Fear Factor?”
