Whew. After an overall worrisome Christmas corridor for moviegoing, the first full weekend of January is bringing relief for Hollywood and theater owners, thanks to Avatar: The Way of Water and new offering M3GAN, a sci-fi themed horror pic from Universal and Blumhouse. The Way of Water, which was the lone movie to do big […]

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery was released on Netflix in December and there are plenty of exciting surprises in the film as well as fun cameos and easter eggs. If you stayed through the credits, you may have also noticed that someone unexpected was thanked: Bill Hader. Of course, Hader is best known for […]

An awards-worthy performance from Danielle Deadwyler (who stole the show in 2021’s The Harder They Fall) lends a passionate heart to this solidly engrossing and still contemporary historical drama set in 1955 and dedicated “to the life and legacy of Mamie Till-Mobley”. Revisiting the true story of the mother turned activist whose battle for justice […]

A new year is upon us, but January isn’t exactly the best time for being a moviegoer. Or maybe it is. New theatrical releases might be limited at the start of each year, but that only makes January 2023 the best time to catch up on the best movies that 2022 had to offer. Many […]

In a film featuring a (in some cases literal) murderer’s row of movie-star performances, the “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” character that has received the most ink since its Netflix premiere on December 23 is Derol, the Corona-toting slacker who briefly appears in only a handful of scenes — but steals every one of […]

After spending 18 years bringing “Getting Away With Murder(s)” to fruition, British filmmaker David Wilkinson faced wall-to-wall rejections when he shopped the documentary to global broadcasters and subscription services such as Netflix. Clocking in at three hours, Wilkinson’s film is a detailed indictment of the so-called “great unpunishment” faced by nearly all of the Holocaust’s […]

The Shogakukan-published Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead manga is getting a TV anime adaptation that begins airing this July. A trailer and teaser visual have been released. It was also announced that Hulu will stream the show in the US. Streaming platforms for other territories will be revealed later. Kazuki Kawagoe (Komi Can’t […]

New photos confirm that the MCU’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is still undergoing reshoots. With any MCU production, additional photography is “a given” for the franchise’s movies, meaning that that the studio doesn’t “lock anything in until it’s going to the theaters.” However, these Ant-Man photos don’t involve VFX shots, and the reshoots aren’t […]

I was so repulsed by Babylon, the latest film by Damien Chazelle (First Man, La La Land, Whiplash), that I couldn’t get out of the theatre fast enough once the three-hour-and-eight-minute movie finally ended its stupid assault on the senses. Not because the portrait of 1920s film-industry decadence Chazelle is trying to shove in our faces is shocking. […]

Tom Hanks appeared to get pretty heated over the “nepo baby” controversy during an interview with Reuters (video via The Sun, below) published earlier this week. A “nepo baby,” short for “nepotism baby,” is a buzzy, albeit condescending term that refers to children of celebrities who are now famous due partly to their parents’ fame. […]
