I still have faith that Gina Carano is going to land good action film roles. Even though she’s trapped in B and C thrillers like “Daughter of the Wolf,” she has presence, and her fist-fighting bonafides remain impressive. She’s had … Continue reading →

You can see why country singer Trace Adkins would be a natural to cast in a Western. He’s got the growl, the tall-in-the-saddle stature, the ability to wear a hat like he’d be naked without it. And his first moments … Continue reading →
