The Circle
This week brings “The Circle” based on the Dave Eggers novel of the same name. As a Bay Area native, and (for better or worse) someone who works in the tech industry, the book was already a fascinating read. The movie however was a different beast. In spite of the all star cast of Emma…

Free Fire
We’ve hit a year of movie reviews! It’s only appropriate that the first film I reviewed was from A24, as is this week’s film. This week brings “Free Fire” from director Ben Wheatley and starring Sharlto Copley, Armie Hammer, Brie Larson, and Cillian Murphy. While it’s easy to compare the constraints of the film to…

Colossal
This week brings “Colossal” starring Anne Hathaway, Jason Sudeikis, and Dan Stevens. I’d call it an art house monster movie. It was refreshing to see a film that was original, and not at all what I was expecting. Don’t go in to this in hopes of seeing Kaiju or Godzilla-like creatures duke it out. Instead…

The Boss Baby, The Zookeeper’s Wife, Ghost in the SHell

Life, CHiPs, Song to Song
Mega movie review this week. I review “Life” “CHiPs” and “Song to Song” “Life” stars my homeboy Ryan Reynolds, also Jake Gyllenhaal, and Rebecca Ferguson, and an alien. Ripped straight from the plot of “Alien”, this film brings nothing particularly innovative to the genre, but also doesn’t mess it up. I also have “CHiPs” which…

Beauty and the Beast, T2 Trainspotting
It’s an Ewan McGregor double feature this week, with Disney’s live action remake of “Beauty and the Beast” and the 21 years in the making sequel, “T2 Trainspotting.” Disney has apparently decided nothing is sacred from their historic vault, and has decided to remake their animated classic film “Beauty and the Beast.” They often recreate…
