‘SNAKE EYES: G.I. JOE ORIGINS’ Review | Paramount Strikes Again
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins feels like a generic 90s action movie. Remove the handful of G.I. Joe references and it would be extremely difficult to tell this was a Snake Eyes origin story.
‘SETTLERS’ Review | The Old West on Mars
There are some specific scenes in Settlers that may haunt you for some time after the credits roll. However, for the most part, Settlers is a middle-of-the-road sci-fi film with suspense elements.
‘ROADRUNNER’ Review | One Anthony Bourdain Viewpoint
'Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain' ties in interviews with friends, confidantes, coworkers, and his three former partners.
‘SPACE JAM: A NEW LEGACY’ Review | An Airball For King James
While visually fun and nostalgic, Space Jam: A New Legacy misses the mark on continuing the legacy of the original.
‘LANSKY’ Review | A Confused Mobster Flick
Lansky has a great story at the heart of it, but it’s buried beneath far too much nonsense. The film is meandering and glutted with unnecessary content. It squanders a vintage performance by Harvey Keitel and does a poor job doing justice to the momentous historical events that it portrays. If you’re very interested in learning about Meyer Lansky, you can go ahead and give this a try, but you shouldn’t bother otherwise.
‘SUMMER OF SOUL’ Review | The Next Best Thing to Being There
There’s really nothing bad to say about Summer of Soul. The original crew did an incredible job with their cinematography, and the remastered footage looks amazing for its age. It provides a good time with great musical performances while also weaving in enough historical context to demonstrate that the Harlem Cultural Festival of 1969 was as much about a cultural movement as it was a celebration of music. Sit back and enjoy this one.
‘THE TOMORROW WAR’ | A Movie Review
While I wouldn’t call The Tomorrow War a blockbuster-caliber film, it’s a helluva enjoyable way to spend over two hours of your time.
‘BLACK WIDOW’ Review | Good for a Solo Marvel Film
There’s a lot of Avenger name-dropping, but this is Black Widow’s film through and through. Aside from minor issues with the action sequences late in the film, Black Widow is among one of the better Marvel solo films.
‘F9: THE FAST SAGA’ Review | Some Assembly Required
A few people missing from the ensemble cast, but overall F9: The Fast Saga is another high-stakes, high-octane action film.
