Lost in the Reel's video review for The Rings of Power Anyone that follows my channel/writing closely, knows that I am a huge Lord of the Rings fan. The original Peter Jackson Trilogy are three of my favorite films of all time and I grew up reading the books religiously. After the mediocre
Lost in the Reel's video review for Samaritan The new film Samaritan shares very similar DNA to Rocky Balboa and Creed, except with superheroes in the mix. So, it's pretty fitting that Sylvester Stallone is headlining this Amazon Prime flick. It also has nearly the same plot as another
A League of Their Own is one of my all-time favorite films. The cast is full of heavy hitters of the time from Tom Hanks, Gina Davis, Lori Petty, Rosie O’Donnel, and even Madonna! The film is iconic, with quotable lines, memorable moments, and incredible characters. So, when a television series

We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
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
