Every shark movie lives in the shadow of Jaws. While not the first, it had an immediate and lasting impact on movie culture and the industry. For one, it spawned a bunch of imitators, most of which failed to make any impression, much less a comparable one. Even once that initial wave subsided, and shark […]
The Karate Kid is a beloved franchise that has spanned many forms of media. The sixth entry in this four-decades-long franchise acts as a legacy sequel to the original trilogy and the 2010 remake. Li Fong (Ben Wang) is a martial arts prodigy and Mr. Han’s (Jackie Chan) nephew. Li is forced to move to […]
A Simple Favour begins by dropping you into your typical suburban hellscape of school runs, bitchy parents with too much time on their hands, and social media. Smack dab right in the middle of all this is Stephanie Smothers (Anna Kendrick), the super mum. Or the super annoying mum, depending on who you ask. When […]
If you’ve been lamenting that AppleTV+ doesn’t currently have a new comedy centered around a middle aged straight white man who refuses to deal with a personal trauma and instead tries to go out of his way to help those around him at the expense of his own mental health that stars a beloved (or […]
I was fortunate enough to catch the New England premier of Sister Midnight at the Boston Underground Film Festival back in March, where I listed it as one of the best features of the festival. A huge benefit of catching an early screening is knowing nothing about the film beyond the title until the lights […]
A team of treasure hunters searching for the Fountain of Youth discover clues to its location in a series of famous paintings.

If I thought last week’s penultimate episode of Doctor Who was overstuffed, well, things certainly got even more packed full of plot in this week’s season (and potentially series) finale. From dispatching the Rani (one of whom made it out alive and is still gallivanting around the galaxy to trouble The Doctor at some future […]
Lilo & Stitch is the second remake of a Disney animated classic to be released in 2025. This film brings to life everyone’s favourite chaos-loving alien. Experiment 626 (Chris Sanders) is a genetically engineered creature designed to be the ultimate weapon. When he evades United Galactic Federation custody, he escapes to Earth and lands on […]
The interesting thing about Hacks (or, at this stage of the game, perhaps it’s both a feature and a bug of the series structure) is that each season tells an arc and ends with a reset. Usually, that reset sees Ava and Deborah at odds for some reason – whether it is Deb trying to […]
I’ll be the first to admit that my Doctor Who knowledge isn’t nearly as vast as many fans, largely because I’ve only watched a couple of series of the show overall – and all of them have been during the modern era of the series. So, the importance of the Rani’s return has pretty much […]
