Film Review: Priscilla [2023] – Cailee Spaeny, Jacob Elordi
Priscilla is an anti-fairytale movie zooming in on a woman at the heart of manipulation, gaslighting, grooming, and possessive love, while being doused in perfume and pink…
Wolfs [2024] – Brad Pitt, George Clooney on Apple TV+
Wolfs is AppleTV Plus answer to how can you ruin a movie starring two ex-A-List stars. It’s not comedy, it’s not action. Not sure what I just…
The Instigators [2024] – Matt Damon, Casey Affleck, Jack Harlow on AppleTV+
The Instigators doesn’t take itself seriously, and that is its main issue. It’s a slow action-comedy movie that doesn’t go far enough to make itself interesting. Starring…
Film Review: Joker: Folie à Deux [2024] – Joaquin Phoenix, Lady Gaga
Joker: Folie à Deux is disappointing, to say the least. Yes, it’s well made, but it’s also ashamed of what it is, and what it can be….
Film Review: The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare [2024] – Henry Cavill, Alan Ritchson
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is a refreshing take on Guy Ritchie projects and Henry Cavill’s image. Who knew that Cavill could play a great deranged service…
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire [2024] – Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard

Film Review: If [2024] – Cailey Fleming, Ryan Reynolds, John Krasinski
If, the movie, has a cute premise. But the over-engineering forces the movie to go nowhere. It’s sad to see considering such a talented cast. Starring Ryan…
Film Review: It Ends with Us [2024] – Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni
It Ends with Us proves that Sony can’t even make a good movie, based on a best-selling book, about domestic violence hidden behind a romantic movie pitch….
Film Review: Borderlands [2024] – Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Ariana Greenblatt
Borderlands might be the first film based on a game that is barely saved by a child and a sarcastic robot. Not sure how Lionsgate fumbled this…
I Am: Celine Dion [2024] – Documentary on Prime Video
I Am: Celine Dion is a raw, unfiltered, and honest look at Dion’s struggles with her health. Mentally and physically. Grab some tissues before you click play….
Movie Review: Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire [2024] – Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry
Godzilla x Kong is running the franchise on fumes. I did enjoy this sequel in fits and starts, but at no point did I particularly respect it…
Movie Review: Twisters [2024] – Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Anthony Ramos
Twisters might be an interesting movie, but it misses the majority of the swings it takes, and that says a lot. Remakes are rarely easy. But for…
