    Review: Jumping Back in Time a Century, a Bawdy, Unsophisticated The King’s Man Sets Up the Future of the Franchise

    To be clear, this 100-years-earlier prequel to director Matthew Vaughn’s original 2014 Kingsman: The Secret Service (as well as its abysmal 2017 sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle) does not portray […]

    Review: In Resurrecting The Matrix, the Fourth Installment Feels Stale and Sadly Familiar

    It’s astonishing that there are those criticizing how Spider-Man: No Way Home bends multiple Spider-Man universes in on themselves, but they don’t seem to have any issues with the latest […]

    Review: Flynn Son of Crimson Is a Competent Action Platformer

    While Flynn: Son of Crimson immediately invokes pirate imagery in my head, it turns out it’s an ambitious action platformer that started its life as a Kickstarter project back in […]

    Review: Dungeon Munchies Is a Bland Morsel

    I’m beginning to hate when games are surprised announced. Sure, it’s exciting for most people, and it creates an amount of buzz around a game that might not have that […]

    Review: A Hero’s Journey for Alaudin Ullah in Dishwasher Dreams at Writers Theatre

    Every first-generation person has a story of integrating the ways of the old country, or of their ancestral region like the American South. It is how identities are built and […]

    Review: Maggie Gyllenhaal Adapts The Lost Daughter into a Compelling, Devastating Exploration of Motherhood

    Italian author Elena Ferrante (a pseudonym, no one actually knows who Ferrante is) has written 11 novels; her four-book Neopolitan series has sold millions of copies, been translated into dozens […]

    Review: The Play That Goes Wrong May Be Right If You Need Some Laughs

    The Play That Goes Wrong opened Friday night at the Broadway Playhouse. By audience reaction, the play is a barrel of laughs; it’s a wannabe farce that doesn’t quite make […]

    Review: Red Rocket Showcases Sean Baker’s Signature Style and Simon Rex’s Strong Performance

    One of the most interesting aspects of Sean Baker’s filmmaking is his ability to realize his unique vision under circumstances other, less-assured filmmakers would consider disadvantages. Baker (Starlet, Tangerine, The Florida Project) […]
