When I saw Disturbing the Peace on a list of upcoming movies, I thought it was going to be an adaptation of Richard Yates’ titular novel. The ending of the novel was particularly haunting. I always …

Guy Ritchie has had quite an interesting career. Making a name for himself in the late 90s and early 00s with the critical and financial success of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, movie-goers were …

Bad Boys 2 may be the best bad movie ever made. Not in the same sense as ironic classics The Room and Plan 9 from Outer Space, which offer nothing but laughs at pure incompetence and …

We should bar every critic from calling 1917 a “cinematic achievement”, a “technical achievement”, or any derivation of the two. It’s an overused phrase in film discourse as it is, but 1917 has only made …

I had no intention of seeing Charlie’s Angels. I’ve never seen a full episode of the original TV show nor have I seen any of the movies. It’s not the type of movie that appeals to me. …

Here’s the premise: a psychotic hitman goes on an ultra-violent odyssey to avenge his brother’s death. Does this sound intriguing to you? Not really? Well, that’s because I forgot to mention that this hitman is …

Aladdin is one of the better Disney live-action reboots. However, that isn’t saying much. Still, the film works fairly well. While it isn’t the masterpiece that it’s rebooted from, it is a very entertaining family …

We live in an entertainment climate full of polarity; for the most part, massive blockbusters with budgets over $100 million and tiny indies or genre films under $10 million are the most profitable — not …

I have a confession to make — I’m a closet Pokémon fan. I was obsessed with it after its 90’s debut. And while time and maturity has tempered that, that love never fully vanished. So …

Last week I reviewed Dragged Across Concrete, which co-starred Michael Jai White. Coincidentally, Triple Threat also co-stars Michael Jai White — he’s a lot nicer in DAC. Both films are also exceptionally violent. The similarities …
