Weekend Movies: High on Life
If you thought Amy Schumer’s shtick was limited to crude R-rated comedy, her latest landed a tame(r) PG-13. The Broken Lizard troupe is also back with a sequel to their most popular property.
‘I Feel Pretty’ Review: Pretty Middling
‘I Feel Pretty’ is a film that wants it all – broad comedy, social impact, moments of pathos and self-reflection. That’s a laudable goal. Any reticence about it will come down to just how much you buy into its premise and the char...
‘The Flash’ 4.18 Recap: “You Just Got Outthunk,

‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ 5.17 Recap: “We’
The Ruby character ‘Agents of ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.’ this season sure has a silly supervillain costume. How can she even see out of that heavy iron mask? That can’t be terribly efficient for fighting.

Weekend Movies: Don’t Even Dare
This weekend’s biggest new movie is a waste of time, but because it stars The Rock, it’s still bound to make some money anyway. With that video game adaptation drawing moviegoers, few will likely bother to see the three other newc...
