If you like your comedy it bit twisted and very bloody, settle in for a super-fun thriller with Brea Grant’s 12 Hour Shift. Set in a hospital during one very gnarly, unrelenting shift, the film stars Angela Bettis as a nurse whose black market organ-selling scheme goes way off track when her not-to-bright but extremely determined cousin (Chloe Farn...
As a longtime fan of Seth Rogen,An American Pickle didn’t have to sell me too hard on watching it earlier this year when it dropped onto HBO Max. Penned by Simon Rich (who also wrote the short story on which his script is based), An American Pickle follows Herschel Greenbaum (Rogen), an immigrant working in a pickle factory who accidentally gets se...
The most endearing element of the Bad Boys movies isn’t the over-the-top action and wild-as-all-hell setpieces, but rather the charisma and comedic banter of its two lead actors. Even after a 17-year hiatus, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence easily reconnect with that magic in Bad Boys for Life, delivering a movie that’s equal parts hilarious and high...
Hugh Jackman turned in one of the strongest performances of 2020 in Bad Education, a dramedy based on one of the biggest embezzlement cases in U.S. history. Jackman plays Frank Tassone, a Long Island superintendent who is the model leader with an unblemished record. Frank’s carefully-constructed veneer of perfection begins to crack when it is revea...
One of the brightest spots of 2020 was Bill and Ted Face the Music. In an otherwise very bleak year, the third movie in the Bill and Ted franchise gave us a shot of joy. Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter return for the threequel after nearly 30 years away, once again playing our favorite San Dimas time-travelers nearly 30 years after 1991’s Bill and Ted...
In the year 2020, it’s not hard to make “the best DCEU film thus far.” But Birds of Prey accomplishes this task with unparalleled, unprecedented flair. It backflips over the DCEU finish line with glitter bombs and double middle fingers up. It redefines how much auteurs can and should flex in mainstream superhero cinema (Cathy Yan is doing everythin...
If you haven’t seen Borat Subsequent Moviefilm yet, you’ve definitely heard about it. Sacha Baron Cohen’s surprise revival of his 2006 character/pop culture phenomenon made headlines for all kinds of reasons (from the right-wing rally prank spotted earlier this year to the shameful display from Rudy Guilliani that became a bonafide political talkin...
Downhill doesn't quite measure up to its Swedish predecessor Force Majeure, but it's a solid film in its own right that deserves to be seen. Fox Searchlight's remake from The Way Way Back directors Jim Rash and Nat Faxon boasts some serious star power between Will Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The duo play a longtime couple whose marriage is put...
The most recent take on Jane Austen's Emma. is perhaps the most sumptuous and salty entry into the canon ofmovie adaptations based on the beloved author’s work. Screenwriter Eleanor Catton takes care to preserve the more biting tones of Austen’s wits in this version of the Emma tale, while director Autumn de Wilde and her crew craft a vision of Reg...
Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga isn’t like any classic Will Ferrell film. Nor is it like Wedding Crashers, the last Ferrell-Rachel McAdams joint from the same director, David Dobkin. If it can be compared to any other Ferrell comedy, the closest I can come up with is Stranger than Fiction with a seasoning of Blades of Glory. I’m not...
