“I read both of your books. I liked the first one more. Before you were on the island. You liked dinosaurs back then.” Jurassic Park III often gets treated like the odd duck of the franchise, but honestly, there’s a scrappy charm to it ...
Revisiting The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Extended Edition) in 2026 feels like giving the film a second chance it genuinely earns. Directed by Peter Jackson, this middle chapter of the Hobbit trilogy benefits hugely from time and ...
When The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey premiered in 2012, the conversation was hijacked almost instantly by its 48‑frames‑per‑second presentation — a technological gamble that became the film’s defining headline rather than ...
Salem’s Lot has always felt like the great American almost‑masterpiece of televised horror—a work that brushes up against brilliance often enough to haunt you with what it could’ve been. It’s a miniseries built on moments of ...
“Round One… Fight!” There’s something refreshing about how Mortal Kombat, directed by Simon McQuoid, doesn’t waste time apologizing for what it is. This is a movie about elemental ninjas, soul-sucking sorcerers ...

Imagine waking up to find yourself beaten, bruised, and wondering what the hell happened last night. No. We aren’t talking about that weekend bender with your long-lost college buds. We’re talking about a different kind of nightmare - one you’ve seen coming ever since ...

1000 Women in Horror is an ambitious, richly layered documentary that lives up to its promise of exploring how women pioneers have shaped horror cinema since 1895. Directed by ...
Groove is a film that works best if you were there—really there. In the scene; in the music; in the sweat‑slicked, neon‑lit, bass‑thick nights that blurred into mornings. It isn’t trying to convert anyone, and ...
If there’s anything The Housemaid gets right from the get-go, it’s that a film’s title must work overtime. Helmed by Paul Feig — he of Bridesmaids chaos and Freaks and Geeks heart — the film takes great pleasure in scrubbing away at domestic bliss until it shines with menace. Prepare ...
“I do love that money, Sir.” Those words are uttered very early on in Killers of the Flower Moon by Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) as the returning WW1 veteran responds to his Uncle William Hale’s (Robert DeNiro) declaration that, “Money flows freely here ...
Jay Roach has always had a knack for putting relationships under pressure—Meet the Parents, anyone?—but with The Roses, he trades awkward dinner parties for something sharper, darker, and far less forgiving. A reimagining of Warren Adler’s novel and the ...
Chloé Zhao’s deeply felt, yet restrained new film, Hamnet, is the kind of cinematic experience that sneaks up on you. You know the kind: it’s subtle at first, then keeps pecking and poking at you like an unshakable memory that leaves you teary-eyed in the grocery store ...
The beloved Naked Gun franchise awakens from its 30-year retirement and straps on the ol’ sidearm with yet another comedic take on police procedurals that brings both nostalgic laughs and modern sensibilities to an old gag ...
Darren Aronofsky has given us ballerinas breaking bones (Black Swan), junkies unraveling in fast-cut montages (Requiem for a Dream), and wrestlers body-slamming their way into heartbreak (The Wrestler). Now he sets his sights on… a guy cat-sitting? Don’t laugh—because in ...
Filmmaker Francis Lawrence has built a career making kids suffer for our entertainment (The Hunger Games films, anyone?), and with The Long Walk he may have found his bleak masterpiece. Adapted from Stephen King’s first novel, this is a story where endurance isn’t ...
Because time doesn’t stop for anybody. And, if we are to survive, we must adapt. Even The Granthams. The closing act of Downton Abbey has arrived and it is as magical and as impactful as you’d ever want or wish it to be. Call it a masterstroke of genius. Call it ...
“Forty-one years ago… they turned it up to eleven. Now, they can barely find the volume knob.” The loudest band in rock ’n’ roll history is back—whether the world asked for it or not. In Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, the bandmates (sans drummer), stumble out of retirement, out of ...
Never has the phrase “truth is stranger than fiction” had more relevance than it does in Roofman, director Derek Cianfrance’s entertaining little crime comedy-drama. The film stars Channing Tatum as Jeffrey “Roofman” Manchester, a charming, blue-collar, ex-military whose ...
Well, the good news with Clown in a Cornfield is that it doesn’t suck. It’s absolutely a lot of fun and full of enough meta-themed awareness to be clever in some parts. While I think a lot of horror fans might sleep on the movie, I am pleased to let you know that cornfields, clowns, and small towns ...
Razor-sharp. This essentially describes the wit of Clue and this new 2023 4K upgrade of the classic comedy. It’s the movie with three different endings, remember? And, if you remember that, you also remember that you had to go to different theaters to see the different endings. It was an ...

If there’s one film that seriously needs your reevaluation this Halloween season, it’s Tommy Lee Wallace’s Halloween 3: Season of the Witch.

Surprise! The knife is not yet blunt. After the solid return to form of Dwight H. Little’s Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, things get far more interesting in the darker, mythos-expanding Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. Critics have long dismissed it ...
