What do you get when you combine the frothy fun of RuPaul’s Drag Race with the emotional impact of Queer Eye? That would be We’re Here, the HBO Max series that brings drag to small town communities across the US – telling uplifting personal stories and making sure you cry at least once an episode […]
Well, here we are again – diving into yet another MCU Disney+ series; this time, dealing with the oft forgotten original Avenger, Hawkeye. I have to admit, much like with Wanda, I was never a huge Hawkeye fan – no offense to Jeremy Renner, but the bow and arrow toting superhero was never prominent enough […]
Utterly delightful. That’s the phrase I used to describe season two of Hulu’s The Great to a friend last week. And that’s ultimately what the season is – utterly delightful. Sure, there’s squabbles (Catherine is attempting a coup against her husband, Russia’s emperor, after all) and not all the jokes land as well as could […]
With a cast that boast names like Jeremy Renner, Diane Wiest, and Kyle Chandler, and Taylor Sheridan – the co-creator of Yellowstone – as a co-creator and showrunner (the other half of the creative team is Hugh Dillion, who also co-stars on the series), one can’t help but hope a series like Mayor of Kingstown will live up […]
Putting Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Kathryn Hahn, and Casey Wilson into a limited dark comedy series sounds like the perfect recipe for a hit. And I will admit to being incredibly excited to dig into The Shrink Next Door, the eight-episode AppleTV+ series that has all four sensational actors bouncing off each other. But boy, […]
Belfast, writer-director Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical story about a snippet of his childhood in the capital city of Northern Ireland is, for my money, his best film since Much Ado About Nothing all the way back in the early ‘90s. For a filmmaker who has a tendency to get a bit too wrapped up in the […]
Invasion, the new AppleTV+ drama from co-creators Simon Kinberg and David Weil, is – you guessed it – about an alien invasion of Earth. Or, at least that’s what one assumes it is about, as after watching the five episodes initially provided to critics, there’s a whole lot of discussion, exposition, and attempts at character […]
Dune, the complex, winding novel from Frank Herbert, isn’t the easiest read. Its timeline can become twisted, its plot is at times quite dense, the scale and scope of the epic massive and at times wholly unwieldy, and it takes a good bit of time for the real narrative arc to reveal itself, before things […]
Antlers, the new supernatural horror film from director Scott Cooper (who also co-wrote the script along with C. Henry Chaisson and Nick Antosca – whose short story “The Quiet Boy” was the basis of the plot) is gorgeously directed, filmed, and acted. Unfortunately, the film’s script fails to ascend to the heights of the rest […]
Amazon has resurrected the I Know What You Did Last Summer franchise (or, as much as you can call it a franchise when it only consists of a 1973 novel by Lois Duncan, a 1997 teen slasher film of the same name, and two very forgettable sequel films) and is bringing it into our present […]
