By now, most reasonably savvy moviegoers are well aware that Labor Day weekend tends to be an especially dire period for anyone looking to painlessly kill a couple of hours in the multiplex. The only things that seem to open (“escape” is probably a more suitable term) then are misbegotten messes that are dumped out […]

With the speed of multiverse movies coming up, it is quite confusing as to why the multiverse is persistently an issue. Quite bluntly, when Spider-Ham was brought in, he was a random weird character that viewers got to watch, with a single eye catchy first screen appearance, an impression which is hard to shake off.

Revenge is a dish best served cold, and the revenge dished up in “The Wasp” has been in the freezer for 15 years. The revenge is so cold that it’s camouflaged as something else. The film leads you to think it’s about one thing, but what we are watching is not, actually, what we think

The generally underrated Liev Schreiber anchors Paula Ortiz’s subtle and graceful adaptation of one of Ernest Hemingway’s final novels, “Across the River and Into the Trees.” Schreiber is a consistently engaging performer I became very attuned to his approach by recapping years of episodes of “Ray Donovan” and he shines here by virtue of what

To start off, I extend my deepest gratitude to Floating Eye Films and Drew Marvick, the writer and director of the movie, for granting me early access to the internet screener of the movie Pool Party Massacre.

There are those moments when all I wish is to obliterate the recollection of the despicable American Society of Magical Negros. Because nearly magic will not aid in such an undertaking in any case.

Count “1992” as one of those films with its heart in the right place but its execution in the wrong space. Set on April 29, 1992, the day of the Rodney King verdict, this is a surprisingly uncomplicated film, one that attempts to balance its heist-thriller elements with its combustible racial milieu. It features Tyrese

Jon Bell’s Sundance horror movie “The Moogai”, based on his short film from 2020, revolves around the story of blown-up white government abducting Aboriginal children termed as ‘Stolen Generations’ – a story which resonates in Australia. Watching this film, however, I could not omit the feeling that America quite limits Bell’s degree of aggressive in

In the 1970s, New York Mets pitcher Tug McGraw made “Ya Gotta Believe” the catch phrase adopted by the fans as the Mets went on a historic run to end the 1973 season. It is an apt title for this telling of another scrappy, fact-based come-from-behind baseball story, this one a group of Fort Worth

Following the death of his wife Sara (Tara Buck), Richard (John Mese) is a father who emotionally struggles following the passing of his wife. He is then placed in a situation where he has to take care of his daughter Emmy, who is autistic and non-verbal. She was scheduled to start a new program prior
