IF YOU LOVED THE U.K. "SKINS", THAN THIS MIGHT INTEREST YOU... Makoto Nagahisa returns to Sundance with his new movie BURN. If you took the show Skins, but set it in the streets of Japan and turned it into a nightmarish fever dream… you would get BURN. And being that Skins is one of my all-time

"SHRINKING" IS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS ON TV. PERIOD. Apple TV's arguably best series is back for another season of friendship hijinks and violating HIPAA laws. Bill Lawrence's “Shrinking” has been my one-and-only comfort show since his own “Ted Lasso” and Netflix's “Grace and Frankie”

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE YET TO SEE "UNDER THE BRIDGE", THIS IS A NON-SPOILER REVIEW FOR ALL EIGHT EPISODES. True crime has become one of my favorite genres in Film and television, as of late. As I get older, a fascination with the dark side of the human psyche has really begun to intrigue me.
It was just three years ago that the world was introduced to the magical world of The Super Mario Bros. Movie. That film was a runaway success at the box office and was surprisingly great, considering some of the gripes coming into it. Now, we're getting a sequel that is adapting one of the most
There's a growing trend in cinema right now, and that is the trend of movies being fun again. Just a good old-fashioned time at the theater (or home since streaming accounts for most viewership these days) filled with laughs and action and heart that remind you why you go to escape in the first
