What It’s About: A former baseball player-turned-bartender finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time when rival gangs come looking for his friend, who’s conveniently out of town.

What To Expect: Caught Stealing is unlike most Darren Aronofsky movies in that it’s not a cerebral exploration of the psyche or complex subject matter, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a bite. This ferociously funny, violent, and action-packed crime story in ‘90s NYC is just so much fun, and sexy as hell.

What It’s About: A group of extremely wealthy friends, all from powerful families whose status gives them an endless line of “get out of jail free” cards, live out their debaucherous lives.

Philip Sledge
Content Writer

Philip grew up in Louisiana (not New Orleans) before moving to St. Louis after graduating from Louisiana State University-Shreveport. When he's not writing about movies or television, Philip can be found being chased by his three kids, telling his dogs to stop barking at the mailman, or chatting about professional wrestling to his wife. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes). If the stars properly align, he will talk about For Love Of The Game being the best baseball movie of all time.
