Movie Reviews

Written by Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp and directed by Larry Charles, Dicks the Musical can best be described as The Parent Trap as if it was filtered through John Waters’ brain. 

I love how each of these films help to teach children one specific thing and not bombard them with dozens of themes and ideas like some other animated films.

The short film follows two gunmen, Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal, former friends and lovers who reunite after several years apart.

A funny Us vs Them story that’s maddeningly frustrating with how the Them’s never really get into trouble because of the tilted scales of justice.

I’m curious to see where things go with this Flash, especially with Miller’s troubles but if you’re looking to check it out, just sit back and enjoy the ride… or run.

The Guardians are a family. It’s about friendship – always has been – and finding acceptance and love, even when you’re not looking for it.

Jonathan Majors is freaking fierce. He’s got this calm, quiet rage that just feels like it wants to erupt.

Florence Pugh is, as usual, great. She’s the rock here, grounding the whole film in reality.

What Fletch has going for it is the performances, especially Hamm’s and Annie Mumolo’s, who plays his certifiably crazy neighbor, Eve.

The real fun was watching Goldblum, Dern and Sam Neill’s characters together. As summer movies go, you can do worse.

Jazzfest: A New Orleans Story brings that energy and revelry you experience at the festival and showcases it in the theater.

It’s dark, gritty and there’s never a wink to the audience. It’s also the first Bat-film that shows the character doing detective work.

The whole cast is really terrific, particularly Affleck and Comer. Every time he’s on screen, he lifts the scene with this wry smile.

Daniel Craig made his 007 an actual person, with nuance and sadness, longing, humor and even fear. It’s almost sad to see him go.

As a fan of the original Sopranos TV show, which ran on HBO from 1999 to 2007, I was eagerly awaiting The Many Saints of Newark, series creator David Chase’s prequel to the long-running series.

The lights are back on in the Great White Way and to help get you (us) back into the groove is a perfectly-timed documentary, On Broadway.

Shang-Chi was one of Marvel’s lower tiered heroes but that’s about to change with the super fun, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

Who woulda thunk that Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt would make a great on-screen pair?

Matt Damon is absolutely wonderful. It looks like he’s transformed himself into a big, thick spark plug of a man.

What is happening to them? Why are they even there? All these answers are revealed but to mention that would help spoil the twist.
