We don’t need to see eye to eye, we just have to remain respectful. This virtue is understood by most children, but it seems lost in American political discourse. It’s disheartening seeing people cheer for…

Whichever side of the political spectrum you reside on, the unequal distribution of wealth should concern you. But the solution to this is anything but clearcut. Sometimes it seems that the ultimate answer to this…

I’m one of the few moviegoers out there who was actually looking forward to seeing Fred Durst stalker-thriller/wacky John Travolta vehicle, The Fanatic. The fact that it’s already hailed as both a critical and financial…

Hi, it’s me again with another teen romance. Obviously I am suffering from some crisis after turning 30, and I accept whatever moral judgement you wish to throw at me. After, in a nutshell, is…

Adaptations that emerge from Stephen King source material are either a hit or a miss. We had IT in 2017 that succeeded in making us fear clowns for the rest of our lives, and The Green…

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 years since Knowing first appeared on the big screen. If you asked 15-year-old me what he thinks of this flick, he’d tell you that it’s an excellent…

The early year, low-budget horror movie is starting to become too trendy for its own good. Don’t get me wrong, this is a tried and true formula that has brought about a lot of financial…

Do you see what happens when the imagination is super-imposed upon the historical event? It becomes a story… – N. Scott Momaday You should never judge a book by its cover. These are words we’re…

When I first heard of the upcoming film, What Men Want, I couldn’t do anything except roll my eyes. Is the well for remakes so dry that we have resorted to remaking What Women Want, a romantic…

I’ve been quite optimistic about Alita: Battle Angel from the moment the first teaser trailer dropped. There was something about it that felt special and quite cinematic. After the long wait, the movie is finally here and…

Knock Knock, Exposed, The Whole Truth, To the Bone, Siberia, and Destination Wedding. What do all these movies have to do with each other? They date no earlier than 2015 and you’ve never heard of them. With the John Wick…

There are so many immigration documentaries out there that I questioned the need for another one. Yet today we also live in a more heated political climate than ever before. All Americans should know what…

After seeing Crazy Rich Asians I checked out the review of the movie on our site. Following the well-thought-out piece, I scrolled through the comments where I noticed one commenter bringing up an important topic up. They said, “My…

What are the chances Mortal Engines survives this holiday season from the clutches of Into the Spider-Verse, Aquaman, Marry Poppins Returns, and Bumblebee combined? Slim, I tell you. Universal might have overestimated their chances when it came to its marketability in such…

Filth was released way back in 2013 but after completing my article on the top 10 James McAvoy performances, I decided to re-watch it. If you’ve read any of my posts before, you’ll know I…

Not every movie is a blockbuster or an Academy favorite. Relaxer is one of those films that do not fit either of those categories. With this said, it fits all the parameters of a cult classic…for others.…

I’m going to be honest with you: when I first saw the trailer for Outlaw King, I was full of nothing but doubts. My initial expectations surrounding the abilities of both Chris Pine and Aaron…

Chained for Life will be playing at the Denver Film Festival from October 31st to November 11th. Head over to the DFF’s website to purchase your tickets! Some movies get their word out through boasting their hundred million…

I think I may have spoken too soon when I named Private Life the best offering from Netflix I have seen this year, because Shirkers is so good, it just blows everything else out of…

We are now in the middle of the award season, the time of the year that brings us the best there is in film. It’s when the often avoided themes get their proper spotlight. Today…

At this point, you might have heard the news that Clueless is getting a reboot, with Tracy Oliver (writer of Girl’s Trip) producing and Marquita Robinson (writer for Netflix‘s comedy series Glow) on the team.…

Believe it or not, I actually only watched American History X this year. It does seem strange that someone who writes for a film site like MovieBabble, and who generally perceives herself to be quite…

Let’s look back to the year 2000, the release year of Unbreakable. Who could foresee that the movie would lead to not only a sequel, but an extended universe? Back then, the superhero genre was…

The first rule of fight club is: you do not talk about fight club! The second rule of flight club is: you do NOT talk about fight club! I can only apologize to the infamous…

Traditionally, when people think about going to the movies they think of groups of people or a couple on a date. Rarely — or never — do people think about someone going to the movies…

Slenderman is perhaps better known as a terror-inducing game that starts the player off in the woods with a torch and only one objective: finding 8 pieces of paper. The catch? These 8 drawings (presumably…

Calibre (2018) follows the fate of vacationing hunters, and arrives this summer amid a steady flow of independent films on the festival circuit that find their way into the Netflix fold.  This English language production hails…

Netflix continues on with their infamous comedy films starring popular comedians. This time it’s David Spade who becomes the voluntary victim. If you’re here to find out whether you should watch Father of the Year, you’ve…

This is a huge month and year for the Jurassic Park cinematic franchise. It marks the 25th anniversary and so happens to coincide along the release date for its newest fifth installment. The title, score, and quotes…

After writing movies such as Taxi Driver and Raging Bull, Paul Schrader cemented himself as an industry mainstay.  If he wished, Schrader could have stopped after those two creations and left behind a legacy that many would have…

Who doesn’t love Canada? I mean, my high school psychology teacher didn’t, but that’s beside the point. Canadians are kind, ride moose to school, and only eat maple syrup. They also use maple leaves instead…

After the surprise $1.5 billion outing of Jurassic World, Universal’s decision to continue on making more installments in the franchise is no shock to anyone. However, many would still call this decision into question, considering…

I had a bit of a moment this week when I saw that The Truman Show (1998) is turning 20. In your 40s, a song or a movie you thought was 10 years old turns…

Think about this question: when was the last time you saw a G-rated movie? Let me ask a better question: when was the last time you actually wanted to see a G-rated movie? Your kids…

In a move of clear counterprogramming to Deadpool 2, Paramount put their cushy, fluffy romantic comedy Book Club up against the brass, brazen superhero film to appeal to moviegoing audiences that would never ever step inside a theater that’s…

Next month, I will be traveling to the harbour city for the 64th annual Sydney Film Festival (June 6 -17). It will only be my second time attending a major festival and my first time…

In show business, there’s always those select few individuals that can get “it” done for you, and actress Jenny Paul is absolutely one of the best examples of such people.  With more than a decade…

No, this isn’t one of those clickbait articles trying to steal your attention by coming up with the craziest title in the world. The Last Warrior is a weird case of what happens when Disney has…

There’s no denying that Harry Potter was an incredibly successful franchise. With many of us growing up either reading the books or watching the films (or both) I’m sure there will always be a place…
