Céline Sciamma, writer and director of “Portrait of a Lady on Fire,” calls her period film a “manifesto on the male gaze.” This is the most accurate, elegant description of her story of a romance between two French women in the late 1700s... Read the full review »

What an intriguing trailer! Brad Pitt starring in a Solaris/2001 rescue mission for Tommy Lee-Jones, don't mind if I do. Granted, I was still riding the homoerotic Pitt wave from OUATIH, which would've had a profound effect on my initial trailer r... Read the full review »

Think of “The Report” as an educational lecture rather than a piece of entertainment. The film tells the story of Daniel Jones (Adam Driver), lead investigator for the U.S. Senate’s sweeping study into the CIA’s Detention and Interrogation... Read the full review »

Sometimes a movie struts its awfulness with such glee that it becomes an enjoyably sadistic pleasure rather than a chore to watch.
Such is the case with “Cats,” the big screen adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1982 musical that became one... Read the full review »

Good intentions don’t always make for good movies, and “Waves” plays like a second-rate music video made by a pretentious film student. There are some deeply meaningful themes that fall by the wayside in this incredibly boring melodrama abou... Read the full review »

An average documentary with uneven storytelling, “Knock Down the House” is worth watching if you’re a fan of the current pro-minority and pro-female movement in politics. In the long run this isn’t a memorable movie, but throughout its dur... Read the full review »
