  • The Dark Tower, An Inconvenient Sequel

    ​The darkest thing about the onscreen adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Dark Tower” is how much it’s going to disappoint fans of the book. If you want a dose of real world darkness (and a glimmer of hope) you can check out Al Gore’s return to the silver screen in “An Inconvenient Sequel” Not even…

  • Atomic Blonde

    ​Charlize Theron kicks ass and takes names in “Atomic Blonde.” I want people to stop comparing it to James Bond because it’s better than the last however many!

  • Dunkirk, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets

    ​It was truly an event weekend at the box office, with the Christopher Nolan helmed WWII epic “Dunkirk” and the Luc Besson visual smorgasbord “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”.  Both films are definitely meant to be experienced in theaters. While I felt that it was unlike something we’ve seen before from WWII…

  • War for the Planet of the Apes, The Big Sick

    ​It’s finally a good week at the movies, with very impressive VFX bonanza (banana-za?) “War for the Planet of the Apes” and the incredibly heartfelt and heartwarming “The Big Sick.” “War for the Planet of the Apes” is the third in the Apes reboot from Fox, and it’s one of the few series that has…

  • Spider-Man: Homecoming

    ​What happens when two major movie studios finally decide to team up? We get our 6th Spider-Man film in 15 years! Tom Holland dons the Spidey-Suit for his first solo foray as the web-slinger, with a little help from Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man. People are calling this the best film in the MCU…

  • Baby Driver

    ​Edgar Wright is back in action with “Baby Driver” starring Ansel Elgort, Jon Hamm, Eiza Gonzalez, Lily James, Jamie Foxx, Kevin Spacey and probably the best soundtrack of the summer. From an idea that’s been rattling around in Edgar Wright’s brain for 20 odd years (so almost older than the star) comes an action packed…

  • Transformers: The Last Knight, The Bad Batch

    ​Michael Bay is back with the 5th Transformers movie, “Transformers: The Last Knight”, and oh what a movie it is. This week also brings “The Bad Batch” from director/writer Ana Lily Amirpour. Spectacle is certainly one way to describe “Transformers: The Last Knight” though that isn’t necessarily a good thing. I don’t think they knew…

  • Cars 3

    ​This week’s film is the family friendly “Cars 3” which offers both high speed thrills and some much needed female empowerment. “Cars 3” marks the return of Owen Wilson as Lightning McQueen and Larry the Cable Guy as Tow Mater. More importantly it marks the introduction of Cristela Alonzo as Cruz Ramirez and Armie Hammer…

  • Pixar Filmmakers for Cars 3
