Malignant has the potential to become a cult classic in the years to come since its initial release. It’s a modern Giallo horror film from a mastermind responsible for launching three major franchises. An outlandish concept that if executed by someone else it wouldn’t offer the same experience. Malignant is a gory treat that proves James Wan still… Continue reading Review: MALIGNANT Offers A Gory Giallo Throwback

Review: THE SUICIDE SQUAD Provides Blood Soaked DC Carnage
The Suicide Squad might be the most fun DCEU film, oozing with James Gunn’s style nonstop. This is what should have been released in 2016, it cleans up the paper-thin squad member issue to provide more depth to these characters. A bonkers, hilarious, blood-drenched experience that doesn’t let up and provides tremendous action sequences. Audiences who… Continue reading Review: THE SUICIDE SQUAD Provides Blood Soaked DC Carnage
Review: THE SUICIDE SQUAD Brought Us Chaotic Fun
The Suicide Squad is back with fresh blood in front of and behind the camera. The sequel is a massive improvement over the 2016 original. There is a coup on the island nation of Corto Maltese, leading to an anti-American government taking control. On the island is a secret facility called Jotunheim. Because of this… Continue reading Review: THE SUICIDE SQUAD Brought Us Chaotic Fun
Review: THE CONJURING 3 Summons Refreshing But Anticlimactic Entry
The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It proves Ed and Lorraine Warren can make up for an uneven new chapter in this universe. The eighth entry in The Conjuring Universe decently abandons the haunted house formula but forgets to build on any characters that aren’t our paranormal investigators. Lacking the earned scares the previous… Continue reading Review: THE CONJURING 3 Summons Refreshing But Anticlimactic Entry
Review: THOSE WHO WISH ME DEAD Is A Thrilling Adventure
Those Who Wish Me Dead delivers a heartfelt story packed with tons of great action. It’s an effective throwback to older action films but does feel slightly unfocused at times with its narrative. The film is saved by its stellar cast, gripping story, and score that feels like a character itself. Those Who Wish Me Dead may not… Continue reading Review: THOSE WHO WISH ME DEAD Is A Thrilling Adventure
Review: JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH Tells Powerful Black Panther Story
Judas and the Black Messiah is a compelling film held together by its phenomenal lead performances and electrifying story. Award recognition is a must for this film because it features career-changing acting, great direction, and is a phenomenal historical outing. A film many could consider appropriate for the current climate in America, Judas and the Black Messiah is… Continue reading Review: JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH Tells Powerful Black Panther Story
Review: THE LITTLE THINGS Shows Little Effort To Impress
The Little Things coast on star power, struggles to leave an impact and takes pleasure in being dull. It’s hard to watch this film without getting thrown off by its odd editing choices and its ability to waste three talented actors. Still, The Little Things is an intriguing film thanks to its three lead stars. Sadly, strong performances… Continue reading Review: THE LITTLE THINGS Shows Little Effort To Impress
Review: WONDER WOMAN 1984 Offers Lackluster Blockbuster
Wonder Woman 1984 is probably the most disappointing superhero film in recent memory. After wondering whether it would be released this year, the film arrived this past Christmas to a divided reception. Wonder Woman 1984 falls short due to its script that spends too much time on the wrong topics. Still, the film isn’t aggressively bad it just… Continue reading Review: WONDER WOMAN 1984 Offers Lackluster Blockbuster
Review: THE WITCHES Can’t Deliver A Lasting Spell
The Witches is a flawed reimagining that will make everyone appreciate the original that much more. It is hard to not compare this film to Nicholas Roeg’s because every flaw draws you back to that magic from thirty years ago. While this telling of The Witches is closer to the source material, it strays into absurdity more than… Continue reading Review: THE WITCHES Can’t Deliver A Lasting Spell
Review: TENET Gives Action-Packed Puzzle
Tenet will warrant head-scratching, multiple re-watches, and a lifetime worth of patience to finally understand the film entirely. Christopher Nolan’s latest sci-fi thriller will do quite a number on the minds of everyone who dares to watch. It’s been said ad nauseam, but Tenet is the most ambitious film to date from the acclaimed director.… Continue reading Review: TENET Gives Action-Packed Puzzle

Review: DOCTOR SLEEP Is A Love Letter To The Shining

Review: JOKER Offers A Fascinating Descent Into Self Destruction
Todd Phillips’s Joker has been receiving enormous attention since its debut at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year.

Review: THE GOLDFINCH Is A Flawed But Effective Depiction Of Trauma
The Goldfinch, adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name by Donna Tartt, is a film that obviously wants to be more profound than it actually is. However, as a character-driven drama, it works surprisingly well, even if the middle section does go on for a bit too long. The movie traces the story… Continue reading Review: THE GOLDFINCH Is A Flawed But Effective Depiction Of Trauma
Review: IT CHAPTER TWO – The Losers Are All Winners
It Chapter Two is now in theaters, and it’s a thoughtful, emotional, and – most importantly – terrifying conclusion to Stephen King’s epic.

Now, “It” has returned, and the gang must return home to Derry to try and… Continue reading Review: IT CHAPTER TWO – The Losers Are All Winners
Review: IT CHAPTER TWO Offers A Messy, Heartwarming, Satisfying Ending
IT Chapter Two is a flawed but effective companion to Warner Bros. 2017 hit horror film. Back in 2017, IT arrived in theaters at a time where 80’s nostalgia was at an all-time high due to the success of Netflix’s hit sci-fi series, Stranger Things. While the film didn’t offer as many references to the 80’s… Continue reading Review: IT CHAPTER TWO Offers A Messy, Heartwarming, Satisfying Ending

Review: BLINDED BY THE LIGHT Was Born To Run Into Our Hearts
Co-written and directed by Gurinder Chadha (Bend it Like Beckham), Blinded by the Light is a new coming-of-age musical set to the iconic music of none other than The Boss, Bruce Springsteen.
