In a world where the image of superheroes, aliens, and robots all walking away from computer-generated explosions is now ubiquitous, revisiting Steven Spielberg’s action masterpiece, “Raiders of the Lost Ark” (1981) is truly refreshing. I’... Read the full review »

After months of hearing unceasing praise for Alex Garland’s sci-fi thriller “Annihilation”, I at long last caught up to it. Expectations were not only met but pleasantly exceeded as I watched Garland’s newest sci-fi spectacle unfold in all... Read the full review »

Documentaries are too often shunned as the boring cousins of “real” movies; this could not be farther from the truth when speaking of the stellar lineup of documentaries we are being graced with this year. Leading the pack is Morgan Neville’... Read the full review »

I had the privilege of seeing “Eighth Grade” followed by a short Q&A with writer/director Bo Burnham, Elsie Fisher (Kayla), and Jake Ryan (Gabe). When asked why he chose to set this story in eighth grade, Burnham poignantly stated that he felt... Read the full review »

Just like its protagonist, 2015s “Ant-Man” is quick-witted, hilarious, and easily overlooked. Released right in between “Avengers: Age of Ultron” (2015) and “Civil War” (2016), it’s no wonder this is almost always pushed to the side... Read the full review »

“Hellboy” is a stew that blends superheroes with the supernatural. It’s based on a comic book written by Mike Mignola in the early 1990s and adapted to the screen here by Guillermo del Toro, the only person who can make such a stew actually... Read the full review »

As cheesy as it may sound, Armando Iannucci’s “The Death of Stalin” lives up to its tagline: “a comedy of terrors”. That’s exactly what this film is, a mocking look at the immoral inner workings of the Soviet Union during and after Sta... Read the full review »

The summer of reboots and sequels continues with “Sicario: Day of the Soldado”, the follow-up to 2015s glorious “Sicario”. Both written by Taylor Sheridan, the “Sicario” movies don’t differ too much tonally, but there are certain ele... Read the full review »

It is through FBI agent Kate Macer’s (Emily Blunt) eyes that we witness just how twisted this world can be in Denis Villeneuve’s crime-thriller “Sicario”. After being shaken up by a gruesome discovery connected to the Mexican cartel, Macer... Read the full review »

“This is not based on a true story….this is a true story” “American Animals” assures us right from the beginning. And it’s a good thing too because if this wasn’t half-documentary, it would be much harder to believe. Director Bart La... Read the full review »

“The best thing we can do is tell someone they’re loved and capable of loving”. This is the central quote in “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?”, the stellar new documentary from Morgan Neville (“20 Feet to Stardom”) on Fred Rogers of “M... Read the full review »

“We’re superheroes, what could happen?” Bob Parr/Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) smugly asks his bride, Helen/Elastigirl (Holly Hunter). The answer? A lot. A lot can happen to superheroes apparently, everything from getting sued to their ho... Read the full review »

WALL·E (2008)

WALL·E (2008)

10 / 10
“Wall-E” is a groundbreaking cinematic masterpiece (snobby words only because “Wall-E” deserves it). Grand space adventures abound in film, but Pixar graced us with their own breathtaking version that somehow feels both small and large-sca... Read the full review »
