The Flash – One Of DC’s Best Efforts [Review]
We've waited quite a long time actually to see The Flash hit theaters. It's been multiple leadership groups at DC Films, multiple owners of Warner Brothers, and now a new regime at DC Films led by James Gunn. Normally, that kind of development, turmoil, and delays would sink a film like The Flash.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts – Optimus Gets Savage [Review]
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts sits in the shadow of six other movies in the long-running toy franchise. The good thing is that you don't really need to know or see anything from those other films to enjoy this one. The only events mentioned outside of this film are that of the excellent
Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse – The Spider Strikes Back [Review]
Calling Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse the best-animated movie of recent memory or of all time is a disservice. It takes animation and the special animation style in this movie and puts it into a category. Saying that feels like a pat on the head of animation for being really good. This movie

The Machine Is Full Of Action And Laughs [Review]

Sebastian Maniscalco and Robert De Diro wonderfully explore and embrace the unique, yet universal, aspect of disliking our loving parents in the delightful family comedy About My Father. Sebastian, who essentially plays himself, is invited to his girlfriend’s family’s 4th of July trip at their

‘The Punisher: One Last Kill’ Review – Frank Castle Fights Back, Mentally And Physically
This is a first for Marvel Studios and their Marvel Television branch for their Special Presentations. We've had others like Werewolf By Night that introduced a new character, but not one for an already established character like The Punisher. The Punisher: One Last Kill comes off the heels of his

‘Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu’ Review – Whimsical And Entertaining To A Degree
It's been quite a long time since we've had a Star Wars movie in theaters. In the time between Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and now, we've had a revolution in entertainment in streaming and Star Wars moved from controlling the theater to a fixture in our living rooms with shows like The
