Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia both kicks up the action and ramps up the stakes with a very poisonous plotline in Ep. 9 "Tengri". In fact, this is the most amount of bloody action we've seen in this anime in a while. However, in terms of story, it still takes second fiddle to the very sudden
Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger feels like a movie that’s selling itself as something deeper than it ultimately is. There’s an expectation that we’re going to get this grand story about the Gallagher brothers reconciling, putting aside their differences, and coming back together for these
Zach Cregger can seemingly do no wrong after the release of Barbarian and Weapons. The director brought his style and substance to the Resident Evil franchise. One that he's a huge fan of, but with a movie that doesn't exactly 1 to 1 adapt those games. And that's really for the best. I know, I
Daemons of the Shadow Realm slows down the plot just a bit to plan things out in Ep. 21 "Zashiki-Warashi and Higashi Village". First to let Danji and Kiri the Zashiki-Warashi daemons give Yuru and Asa some important backstory to explain the past of Higashi Village. Then to let the twin siblings to
I remember seeing the trailer for The Dog Stars and having my eyes roll back in my head. Do we really need more post-apocalyptic stories when we're living in a real life apocalypse? Do we need another movie that has an analog for COVID-19 and the aftermath that had on our own society. Well,
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia gives us a true puppetmistress in the form of Boraqchin in Ep. 11 "An Ungraceful Stone". This episode has shown her to be a master planner and manipulator, making her quite the political genius. However, this episode also reveals that the people she's puppeting don't
One of Aardman Animations' most popular characters, the intelligent and ever-inquisitive Shaun the Sheep, finally has another trip to the big screen. The Shaun movies have become a franchise of their own, spinning off the iconic Wallace & Gromit shorts and features into a well-loved TV series.
If you strip everything else away, at the core—the soul, the center—of DreamWorks Animation’s “Forgotten Island” is the pure, unadulterated power of goddamn friendship. Potential spoilers ahead! “Forgotten Island” (written and directed by Januel Mercado and Joel Crawford) is,
Godmother features every couple's worst nightmare when trying to have a relaxing vacation away from everything... a third wheeling sibling... and a creepy old couple who own the Airbnb. The film comes from director John Veron and writers Veron and Alanah Pearce. Set in the High Desert, the film
"The Pickup Artist" is a independent feature romantic comedy written, directed, produced, and starring Alvaro Orlando. If they name seems familiar that is because Orlando is known for being the winner of VH1's hit dating series "Pick Up Artist" back in 2007. Now he is a real-life dating and
A common theme through many of the films at TIFF - especially the historical ones - feature women who lament being girls. Whether it’s The Julia Set (2026), Magazine (2026) or even La Bola Negra (2026), it’s hard being a girl, but also beautiful and Priscilla captures that irony with compassion
Six Flags Fright Fest 2026 promised a new era at Midsummer Scream 2026 with some new mazes and improvements to their existing mazes at the park. Like Knott's Scary Farm, the park usually has a couple of new mazes added to the event and then makes improvements to ones from previous years. This time
After 7 full days of cinema at the Toronto International Film Festival, we've come the end of our international film journey. While normal festival goers - press and public alike - usually top out at around 30-35 films in person with a handful of films screened pre-fest, I overindulged and
Daemons of the Shadow Realm gives us some entirely foreseeable consequences of the previous battles in Ep. 23 "Emotion and Reason". This not only applies to the fever Yuru comes down with, since he's effectively a medieval person encountering the kinds of diseases you'd normally find in a modern

For better or for worse, the Cold War action-comedy lives! 35 years after the fall of the Soviet Union, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein have meshed the longstanding Odd Couple road trip with Iron Curtain hijinks and modern action sensibilities for a surprisingly solid but conceptually
“By Any Means” treads familiar ground, but Mark Wahlberg shines as real life Hitman-turned-Fed informer Gregory Scarpa, and behind the tropes and cinematic conventions is the kernel of a true story that has relevance to this day. Mark Wahlberg is distracting (mostly in a good way) throughout
