2020 changed everything. It was a nightmare of a year for reasons we already know quite well. The Covid-19 virus propelled us into a realm of science fiction and horror, and no movie could ever match the reality we’ve all lived for the better part of this horrendous year. Every business has been affected in […]

If there were ever a cinematic equivalent to getting punched in the gut, it’s The Devil All the Time.

When you think it couldn’t get any worse, The Devil All […]

It’s hard to say what, exactly, is going on in Charlie Kaufman’s new movie, I’m Thinking of Ending Things.

Its brand of off-kilter, feel-good, sci-fi comedy may have been next to commonplace at the time of its […]

The Top 20 Movies of the 2010s: The 2010s was the decade in which movies changed forever. How they are now made, released, shown to and received by audiences is barely recognizable to a decade or two previous when they were king of all popular entertainment/art. In the 2010s, digital officially replaced celluloid at both […]

2019 featured an array of films from rising talents, seasoned greats and everyone in-between. Scorsese, Malick, Gilliam, Almodóvar, Tarantino, Kevin Smith, Greta Gerwig, Gaspar Noé, Harmony Korine, Lorene Scafaria, Jordan Peele, James Mangold, Deon Taylor, Bong Joon-ho, S. Craig Zahler, Taika Waititi and many other notable filmmakers had a hand in creating the perfect closing […]
