Peter Parker (Tom Holland) can’t seem to catch a break. After all, he spent the entire last movie just wanting to tell a girl that he liked her on their school trip, but his teenage angst was interrupted by his duty to save major European landmarks from getting destroyed by one power-hungry Mysterio.

We meet young Amleth, a wincingly starry-eyed Viking princeling with a huge crush on his brutish King father (Ethan Hawke). Dad is like a traveling salesman who happens bring fresh slaves instead of trinkets as gifts for his family when he returns home after a long time away, so when he returns, the kid is …
The Burning Sea is a solid disaster flick that seems like it is missing its final act. Not necessarily because of plot and build up, but simply because it is called, well, The Burning Sea. I wanted to see flames and explosions and full-on marine-burning disaster–but the truth is, that part of the promised carnage …

The combo unfortunately is not magic, like a kid with a cape being forced to jump off a …
After the first major sequence of The Tomorrow War, I looked at my viewing pal and said, “Wait, is the movie over? Did all of that just happen in 20 minutes?” We had just seen present-day Chris Pratt, a disgruntled high school science teacher named Ben, get drafted by future soldiers to help fight to …
It takes no leap of the imagination to picture Hollywood remaking this film with Liam Neeson as the star. After all, this crime thriller/drama (with just enough twisted humor to make you laugh) is really just a Danish take on a tired, familiar trope. A deployed, weathered soldier receives the worst call from home: His …
