Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One is an absolutely stunning adaptation of the classic comic book series by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. In a Gotham City ruled by organized crime, The Dark Knight faces a mysterious killer that cannot be stopped by brute force or terror. He learns to be a true detective, where

The Fast & Furious franchise motors on in a convoluted spectacle that’s pure fan service, but ably delivers the popcorn cinema action goods. Everything old is new again in F9. The storyline digs deep into the Torreto family’s painful past, while bringing back supporting characters from previous films. It’s an all hands on deck reunion

Pixar’s latest CGI fantasy is an endearing, but entirely predictable coming-of-age story. Luca tells the tale of two teenage sea monsters, who pose as human boys and discover “la dolce vita” in a scenic seaside Italian village. They gobble down pasta, slurp gelato, and dream of owning a Vespa; which will scoot them around the

Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson return in a brainless, foul-mouthed sequel with a sprinkling of slapstick chuckles. Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard reteams the assassin odd couple with an equally raunchy conwoman in a hackneyed plot to save Europe’s technical infrastructure.

Director Antoine Fuqua and Mark Wahlberg tackle reincarnation in an absurdly plotted, but ass-kicking action film.

Pulitzer prize winning playwrights Lin-Manuel Miranda and Quiara Alegría Hudes bring their Broadway hit, In the Heights, to the big screen with smashing success. Its heartfelt testament to New York City’s Washington Heights neighborhood, diverse residents, and vibrant culture is an absolute joy to behold. The story follows a group of tight-knit dreamers over several

Dylan O’Brien takes a mind-bending reality trip in the psychedelic Flashback. Which I can best describe as a twisted combination of The Butterfly Effect, Limitless, and Synchronic. The film is a near constant barrage of quick cut edits, bizarre imagery, and slow motion trail effects. The mystery at its core comes into focus as the

American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally tells the true story of Nazi propagandist Mildred Gillars. Born in Maine, Gillars moved to Germany in the mid-1930s to pursue her dreams as a singer and theater performer. She became the American voice of the Third Reich’s RRG (German State Radio). She expounded Nazi superiority and anti-semitic

The Conjuring 3 continues the theatrical case file adaptations of famed paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. The third film in the franchise and overall eighth chapter in The Conjuring Universe is based on a 1981 murder trial where demonic possession was used as an alibi by the defense. Satanic rituals, grotesque deformations, and a

The gates to the famous Stage 24 where the cast and crew of Friends gathered every day for rehearsals, table reads, and the live taping of the famous sitcom for a decade, is opened by a familiar face. Slowly, David Schwimmer walks in on the sets, getting nostalgic looking at Monica’s kitchen, Central Perk (where
