“It’s not a bear movie, it’s an otter movie!” a woman opined outside the theater after the early screening of Pillion. It’s true: Alexander Skarsgård is too sleek to be a bear (if you are wondering what an “otter” is, Google is your friend!). But he is also simply...
The man we meet at the beginning of Man on the Run is no longer a young, starry-eyed boy from Liverpool. The Beatles are disintegrating, the music scene around them is changing, and the band members are pulled in different directions. They are growing up from mop-topped young lads...
Crime 101’s Los Angeles is one of contrasts. From the gorgeous, slowly turning opening shot of the city at night, we see a world of white billionaires collecting art by people of color merely for its skyrocketing value, contrasted with the working class of immigrants and old-school criminals. Halle...
Like many, I’ve been looking forward to Michael, Antoine Fuqua’s attempt at a Michael Jackson biopic, with anticipation and a little bit of dread. But I have to admit, the first teaser a few months ago—and now this first full trailer, along with the movie stills—made me gasp. In...
For the life of me, I couldn’t remember the name of this film before the screening. I was telling my partner I was going to see Safe Place… or was it Stay Safe? It wasn’t turning up in any Google searches. “Rachel McAdams… you know… stranded on a desert...
Let’s be honest here: a court system run by artificial intelligence doesn’t seem too far off. It’s easy to imagine AI companies approaching the legal system, pitching the benefits of a bot churning through the drudgery of contested parking tickets and other low-level offenses, all in the name of...
The Choral is one of those British historical dramas that feels like a pair of well-worn slippers, a cosy sweater, and a hot cup of tea on a drizzly day. It serves its purpose, offering two hours of no-guilt, gentle, soul-nourishing escapism, without being particularly memorable. Set in 1916,...
I had been anticipating Greenland 2: Migration (or is it Greenland: Migration? The title sequence curiously drops the “2”) since the first trailers a few months ago. But gosh, a lot can happen in a few months. I’ll bet the filmmakers didn’t anticipate that Googling “Greenland” during the film’s...
I’m sure I’m not the only one who felt that 2025 was a year filled with anxiety. The newsfeed was packed with stories about inflation, job losses, never-ending wars, and—oh, I don’t know—the dismantling of democracy, led by a leader who couldn’t seem to shut his pie hole. Many...
Marty Mauser (Timothée Chalamet) is the kind of guy I’d call a “little shit.” A scrawny, smirky white boy with a unibrow and a peach-fuzz little mustache, he exudes a confidence and cockiness far beyond his station. You see, he says he’s going to be a big star—a champion—so...
What do movies like Muriel’s Wedding, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, and Mamma Mia! have in common? They’re true crowd-pleasers, filled with jukebox-ready songs and characters that make you laugh—and yes, make you cry. Scoff if you like, but fans return to them again and again, like cozy slippers...
Give credit to the man who make a box office smash about a scientist. For his next project, Christopher Nolan could do whatever he wanted, and he chose to adapt one of the oldest stories ever told, Homer’s The Odyssey. Based on the epic poem from the ancient Greek,...
