People may complain about Hollywood, but there is just something about a classic Hollywood story or a story of classic Hollywood that does it for us. Who doesn't want to see something about the glitz, glamor, and seedy underbelly of this place that has inspired countless dreamers? Who doesn't want to see an old school David vs. Goliath adventure, but one told in a new way?
They make not be perfect films, but "Hail, Caesar!" and "The Finest Hours" do have a whole lot to recommend them.
