And just like that, Ms. Marvel is over (but fear not – she will return in 2023’s The Marvels, more on that at the end of the review). What a joyously fun ride this six-episode limited series turned out to be. Sure, there were some missteps along the way, but when the series stuck to […]
The 1970 adaptation of The Railway Children is considered a quintessential family film for British audiences. A sequel is set to be released, so now seems like a great time to check out this beloved film. The Waterbury family is an affluent family in Edwardian London. However, their fortunes take a turn for the worse when Charles […]
Britain has a long tradition of making kitchen sink realistic dramas. It is often a genre for new British directors to cut their teeth on. A lesser-known film from this subgenre that’s worthy of being written about is The Violators. Shelly (Lauren McQueen) is a 15-year-old girl who lives on a rough estate. Despite her older […]
Thor is one of the important members of the Avengers and he has done something Iron Man and Captain America couldn’t do and earn a fourth solo film. This film sees the return of a significant character and potentially Thor’s greatest threat. Since the events of Avengers: Endgame Thor (Chris Hemsworth) has gotten back in shape and […]
On the surface, Black Bird, the new psychological thriller from AppleTV+, seems like something we’ve seen before. And really, it is. An adaptation of James Keene’s autobiographical novel “In With the Devil,” we follow Jimmy Keene (a great Taron Egerton, showing range he’s never had the chance to delve into before), a mid-level drug kingpin […]

Well, it appears I was correct in my guess as to just what Kamala was going to do during her journey to the past – help create the stars that would send Sana to her father, thus setting in motion her own future. A bit of a time travel paradox and all that, but still […]
Back in 2010 Illumination announced themselves with Despicable Me and the franchise has become the bedrock of the studio. A fifth film in the franchise has now been released with Minions: The Rise of Gru acting as a prequel. Gru (Steve Carell) is a boy with big dreams. He longs to be a supervillain and wants to join the Vicious 6, […]
I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area, and I have a confession to make: I’ve never had an Italian Beef. I have had many an authentic Chicago dog – I’m not a monster, after all – but never an Italian Beef. If you’re not from Chicago, that likely means next to nothing to […]
Well, I think we can all agree that there was absolutely no reason either of those episodes of Stranger Things: Season Four, Volume Two needed to be that long. I counted at least three places in episode nine where the episode could have ended and been split into two or even three episodes. And sure, […]
