“Til Death Do Us Part” is a “Kill Bill” rip-off that’s not an inherently bad movie, but it does have its fair share of problems. The idea of a killer bride certainly isn’t original, but the film isn’t helped by the fact that director... Read the full review »

Morality and violence in small-town America is explored in the gritty and brutal “Mob Land,” a modern neo-noir film from director and co-writer Nicholas Maggio. Reminiscent of films like “Hell or High Water” and “Wind River,” this is t... Read the full review »

The intersection of innovation, science, political bureaucracy, and ethics meet in writer-director Christopher Nolan‘s “Oppenheimer,” a dark, challenging biopic about the father of the atomic bomb, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer. This profound ep... Read the full review »

I don’t think “Barbie” is a good movie. In fact, it pushes the limits of being a borderline bad movie. That doesn’t mean I am going to give it a negative review, however, because there is a lot (and I mean a lot) of things to love here. De... Read the full review »

As a longtime Disney enthusiast, I was highly skeptical (and very wary) about director Justin Simien‘s “Haunted Mansion,” the second film inspired by the classic and beloved theme park attraction. Everything about this project screamed “po... Read the full review »

One of the greatest surprises of the year has to be “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” a film that I never would’ve expected to be as terrific as it is. Co-directed by Jeff Rowe and Kyler Spears and co-written by Rowe, Seth Rogen, and Evan Gold... Read the full review »

“Susie Searches” is a film with a severe identity crisis. It opens like an edgy Disney Channel movie, only to turn into a twisty, bizarre, and dark story of kidnapping, accidental murder, cover-ups, and the unlimited quest for popularity and c... Read the full review »

All hockey fans should watch director Hubert Davis‘ “Black Ice,” a documentary about the role of black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) players in the sport. The film will definitely make waves by exposing the unpleasant truth that m... Read the full review »

The Tom Cruise “Mission Impossible” franchise is one of reliable quality and equally dependable “forgettable-ness.” I’ve seen every film, yet my memory is fuzzy when I try to recall what happened in any of them. And while it’s almost a... Read the full review »

“Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” is a stale, impotent summer blockbuster that marks another unimaginative entry in the popular adventure franchise. Excessively dull and far too long, director James Mangold‘s movie burns every last dro... Read the full review »

A sweet story about family, friends, and learning to love the person you are is wrapped up with a big, vivacious, raunchy bow in director Adele Lim‘s “Joy Ride,” a raucous comedy that celebrates women embracing their inner naughtiness. This... Read the full review »

Director Alison Ellwood’s “Let the Canary Sing,” a straightforward documentary about the life and career of 80s pop icon Cyndi Lauper, would be another forgettable, pedestrian movie if not for its kooky and unconventional subject.

Most critics have their personal favorite directors, and it’s sometimes a challenge to keep strict objectivity when reviewing one of their projects. That’s why it pains me to write about “Asteroid City,” the sluggish, smug, exasperating ne... Read the full review »

When you have a great story to tell, it shows, and director Olivia Kuan‘s “The Herricanes” is a terrific documentary about a team that was part of the first women’s full tackle football league in the 1970s. The topic is timely and interest... Read the full review »

There’s a sweet life lesson at the heart of “No Hard Feelings,” the supposed “raunchy comedy” from co-writer and director Gene Stupnitsky. What a shame that it’s buried under a heap of dreadfully unfunny attempts at humor, dumb pratfal... Read the full review »

Director Tim Story‘s “The Blackening” isn’t your typical genre film; it’s a horror spoof with an edge. The perceptive and clever story from co-writers Tracy Oliver and Dewayne Perkins is packed with timely social commentary about stereot... Read the full review »

More often than not, I found myself struggling to force laughter while watching “Mad Heidi,” a lazy, one-note, crowd funded film from co-directors Johannes Hartmann and Sandro Klopfstein. Billed as a Swissploitation action/horror comedy, I wan... Read the full review »

“The Flash” has never been one of the most exciting superheroes (here he’s aptly self-described as the “janitor of the Justice League” who always seems to be “cleaning up bat messes”), so it should be seen as an even greater accompli... Read the full review »

I don’t have that much to say about “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”, the sequel to the equally terrific 2018 Oscar winning film “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” except that it’s easily one of the best films of the year. It’... Read the full review »

Stanley Martin Lieber is one of the most iconic, influential, creative American visionaries of the 20th century. That’s why the documentary about his life, simply titled “Stan Lee,” is an absolute must-see for fans. Utilizing audio interview... Read the full review »

Happy surprises that come out of left field are sometimes the best, especially when it comes to low-concept comedies. I went in to the awful looking “The Machine” with below-zero expectations, but came out absolutely charmed by just about ever... Read the full review »
