This is a Gen Z film with a sequel and another in the works. If Moana (2026) doesn’t stoke nostalgia, then what was the draw for it being made?
The Evil Dead formula might be the most successful in the modern era of horror movies. You take the book of the dead, the Necronomicon, and you hand it to a new fresh filmmaker and let them get on with it. It worked with Fede Alvarez and Evil Dead (2013), it worked with Lee Cronin and Evil Dead
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia gives us an adorably traumatic history lesson in the first two episodes of its streaming debut. All starring a young Persian girl named Sitara who starts out this story set in 13th century Persia already traumatized, and the trauma conga line just keeps on going. It
Daemons of the Shadow Realm jumps right into some bloody action with a new second cours in Ep. 13 "Daikyo and Shokyo". And just two weeks after the conclusion of the first cours to boot. We certainly didn't have long to wait before we see the bloody conclusion to the action-packed ending of Ep. 12.
All you need to do is watch Minions & Monsters to see that Hollywood doesn't have to have franchise malaise. As a critic and filmmaker, I firmly believe that original stories are necessary for a thriving film industry. They're the lifeblood of the art form, and excessive focus on IP-mining and
This review is of the first four episodes of the season (Days Of Past Future, A Force To Be Reckoned With, Rise of Apocalypse - Part 1, and Rise of Apocalypse - Part II) X-Men '97 was already a revelation when it released in 2024 on Disney+. The series brought back the feelings of X-Men: The
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia shows Sitara surviving the death of her family through the wisdom they taught her in Ep. 3 "An Undying Flame". It's not merely an empty survival either. A strong, fiery core of hatred for the Mongols is what's keeping her alive at the moment. The only question now is
Daemons of the Shadow Realm gives us some truly fateful meetings between old friends (and family) and new in Ep. 14 "Family and Friends". All complete with some dark secrets spilling forth out of the shadows, and Yuru's bond with his old friends and family being tested quite a bit. All in all, I
Daemons of the Shadow Realm shows us one of the most wonderfully executed baited traps in Ep. 17 "Crybaby and Naughty Child". All with the intended target of the trap, a traitor within the ranks of the Kagemoris, taking it hook, line, and sinker. The resulting battle as well as the ripple effects
Magnificently rendered and beautifully shot, Samurai and the Prisoner is endlessly entertaining even as it sprawls about the walls of the castle and keeps its measured, somber approach. It blends a classic murder mystery with historical epic, which is a strange combination that someone only as
Cinema history is riddled with both coming-of-age tales and biopics aplenty. Tony, the new feature by Matt Johnson (BlackBerry, Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie), lies at the intersection of these well-worn traditions. Based on Anthony Bourdain’s chronicles of his early journey into the
In I Want Your Sex, director Gregg Araki asks audiences to embrace the primal, animal parts of ourselves. Sex, he says, is a natural thing to want. And for an under-sexualized generation, it has become something that hardly anybody pays attention to. That, however, is not to say that they don't
We all have that one film we saw when we were far too young to see. That one movie that we snuck a peek at when our parents went to bed, or movie hopping at the theater to the R-rated movie you couldn't buy a ticket for, or at your friend's house with parents who didn't care what you watched. What
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia proves the old adage that no plan survives contact with the enemy in Ep. 5 "A Snake Shows Its Colors, Man Hides His Colors". Admittedly, the plan isn't even Sitara's plan. It's the plan of her mistress Sorghaghtani. However, it still becomes clear that the whole plan
Throughout all of our lives, there are people we grow close to who act as beacons, a light in human form that allows us to find our way through the darkness. Sometimes this light merely diminishes or changes, but other times these beacon friends can become anchors, as their influence exerts itself
Daemons of the Shadow Realm gives Yuru and his Daemons and allies a very much not-so-peaceful night in Ep. 16 "Kagemori and Shingo". Indeed, it's a rather bloody and violent night, full of twists and turns that will leave viewers gaping in shock. All in all, it's a very entertaining episode for us.

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
King of the Hill Season 15 proves that the most revolutionary thing a television series can do is allow its characters to live. Hank and Peggy are retired. Bobby is an adult navigating friendships, relationships, and the stress of owning a business. Arlen has changed because time has passed, yet
