Movie Reviews

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.

Over Black Widow’s appearances in the MCU, we never really found out much about her. Where was she from? How’d she start working for SHIELD?

From the music, direction, Christopher Scott’s choreography, the colorful set design and fantastic acting, this is what all movie musicals should be. 

If it wasn’t for the knock-it-out-of-park performances of Emma Stone and Emma Thompson, the movie wouldn’t be nearly as much fun as it is.

Blunt and Murphy are great, as is Jupe, but it’s really Simmonds who is the heart – and hero – of the film.

The film, based on a true story, is set right before their Cuban Missile Crisis, when Russia has been secretly plotting to put nuclear weapons 90 miles from America’s borders.

Frances McDormand stars as Fern, a widow whose job at the local factory has just ended because of the recession back in 2011.

Sofia Coppola created a relationship between father and daughter where through it all, they absolutely love each other no matter what.

Based on the book, My Life on the Road, The Glorias takes a look at the like of feminist Gloria Steinem. And what a life it’s been. 

The last 5 minutes of the film is perfect. It’s mostly non-verbal and you can see how the previous events have changed everything for both Maya and Lewis.

Starring Charlie Plummer and Taylor Russell, the film never becomes melodrama. But the script, direction and the excellent cast meld perfectly. 

The title of the film comes from Lewis’ often used phrase, “If you’re going to get into trouble, make sure it’s good trouble.”

Hoon was a rockstar, amateur philosopher and drug addict and it’s fascinating to watch how all three collide.

The film doesn’t really roast either party but he does make you wish (hope!) for a future that is far and away from what’s on-screen.

Like most things, it’s all about the journey there, and End of Sentence is definitely one that is worthwhile.

Directed by Matt Wolf, the film is at times a fascinating look at people who feel determined to change the world for good.
