The thrilling and teeth-rattling opening sequence of First Man shows a test pilot in 1961 as he flies up to 140,000 feet, then almost doesn't make it back. No, his
Aquaman (2018)
[Executive speaks, dominating the meeting] Aquaman has been kind of a joke in the superhero world, so we need to reclaim him, and, you know, make him AWESOME. We need
The Happytime Murders (2018)
If you haven't seen the red-band trailer for The Happytime Murders, well, just take a look below. I'll just wait over here. Now that you can't un-see the ejaculating puppet,
Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Now give me a moment as I go back and re-read my reviews of the previous Transformers films, which I will just call Transformers and Transformers 2. Hmm... there seems
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
As I staggered out of the theater after seeing Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, I was asked what I thought of the movie. I wailed in dismay, "I am SOOOO
John Carter
I'm not usually a huge sci-fi fan, but something about John Carter looked like fun from the get-go. Indeed, the movie gets off to a rollicking start as Carter (Taylor
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)
Unless you are completely willing to suspend disbelief that a chimpanzee wearing pants can lead a revolt of captive apes and take over the world, it is hard to pretend
Machete Kills
Having experienced the legend that is Machete, I was super excited for the sequel, Machete Kills. My boyfriend and I waited for opening day with rising anticipation and then...I got
Hank and Asha
Hank and Asha is a romance that is one step ahead of You've Got Mail, while holding back slightly from watching two people chat via Skype. Our two titular characters

Wag the Dog
Wag the Dog is one of those films that will probably have cyclical relevance through the years, depending on who is in the Oval Office. There will be years that
The Monuments Men (2014)
For starters, I couldn’t quite tell whether Clooney’s latest directorial effort – an amiable but somewhat forgettable WWII picture about a rag-tag group of art-loving guys tasked with recovering, and
Unfaithful (2002)
Diane Lane, in a Golden Globe-nominated performance, plays Connie, a suburban housewife who has a perfectly nice home, a perfectly nice son, and most importantly, a perfectly nice marriage with
D-Tox (2002)
Eye See You is a dumb name for a movie. That's all there is to it. A name like that brings two things to mind: Direct to Video and B-Movie.
K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)
K-19: The Widowmaker is based on actual events that took place in 1961, at the height of the Cold War: In an effort stay ahead in the nuclear arms race

Bangkok Dangerous (2000)
After seeing a ridiculous amount of movies, it is always exciting when I by chance come across one that completely blows me away visually. It is astonishing that one film

Mix a splash of cult-movie David Lynchian-absurdity with the lowest-budget sci-fi special effects this side of Plan 9 From Outer Space, and place a space cowboy in the asteroid belt
Red Planet (2000)
TIM: I should have known, going in, that any movie with Val Kilmer should be killed before release. There was soooo much hype about this movie that you had little
X-Men (2000)
I grew up stealing peeks at my dad's old X-Men comics, those glory-days of the 1960's, long before Wolverine came on the scene. In high school, I suppose I became
The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019)
I can count on single digits how many mentally or physically disabled actors I've seen in major film or television productions, so it is always refreshing to see a new
The Farewell (2019)
This "true story based on an actual lie" is a lovely, very personal film written and directed by Chinese-American Lulu Wang. Based on an incident involving her own grandmother, Wang
The Aftermath (2019)
