The movie-going year started with lots more staying-at-home. Another Covid variant raged through the winter months, and many film festivals had to pivot again to virtual screening options. The Oscars suddenly became must-watch again as Will Smith slapped Chris Rock on live TV, while the Golden Globes weren’t even...
It doesn’t bode well for Babylon that one of the earliest shots in the film is a “git on in there” view of an elephant explosively pooping right onto the camera lens. I guess that isn’t much worse than what wide-eyed Hollywood gofer Manny (Diego Calva) sees when he...
Finally we have a live-action teaser trailer of the upcoming Barbie movie starring the ubiquitous Margot Robbie. Crisply narrated by Helen Mirren, the trailer shows little girls playing with simple baby dolls, in a barren, land before time wasteland. When Barbie appears like a mysterious monolith, the kids are...
Writer/director Zach Braff’s is back with another film of wistful melancholy… and that’s not a bad thing! Especially when you have the wonderful pairing of Florence Pugh (who can do no wrong in my book) and Morgan Freeman (the reassuring voice of God). In the couple minutes of this...
I went in to Avatar: The Way of Water admittedly very cynical. Let’s just put it this way: I kind of hated 2009’s Avatar. I was annoyed by the silly, cartoony script. I was creeped out by the uncanny valley of the CGI characters’ eyes. I was irritated that...
Before seeing All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, I was unfamiliar with photographer Nan Goldin’s art but I had heard about her group’s activism. In the last few years, as hundreds of thousands of Americans continue to die of drug overdoses from deadly opioids, there has been more and...
Writer/director Ol Parker certainly knows his way around a breezy comedy with heart. Here at Moviepie, we’ve been big fans of his work from Imagine Me & You, to The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, to (yes, we know it’s cheesy but we love it) Mamma Mia! Here We Go...
Ellis (Jeremy Pope), a sweet 20-something gay Black man with a dimpled smile, whiles away his days at an urban homeless shelter. While watching TV one evening, he sees images of post-9/11 troops in battle, and in those images he sees a last-ditch chance to change his life: enlist...
Even if some of the sequels were not so good, who doesn’t love Harrison Ford as adventurer-archaeologist Indiana Jones? Though director James Mangold has already confirmed that Ford has been “de-aged” in some scenes, I’ll hold my tongue on that for now (I think more often than not it...
In these uncertain times, I think I may have discovered the movie that we may all need… COCAINE BEAR! You can read the straight-faced synopsis below, but I suggest going straight to the trailer, with the delightful and important knowledge that this film will be coming to a theater...
The parental figures in The Fabelmans are apparently based squarely on director Steven Spielberg’s own mom and dad. In their idyllic 1950s home, mom Mitzi (Michelle Williams) is the artistic free spirit, while dad Burt (Paul Dano) is a sweet, kind of dorky scientist. Spielberg’s stand-in is Sammy (Mateo...
OK, as a Seahawks fan, I’m NOT a fan of Tom Brady… but damn, he’s good. Now there is a movie about four 80-ish-year-old gal pals who love the Patriots-era Brady, and are bent on going to the Super Bowl (since he’s “almost 40″… haha). Throw in Lily Tomlin,...
