TIFF Journal: Knives Out

Jason Gorber — Fri, 25 Oct 2019 12:00:21 +0000

The most obnoxious thing I can say about Rian Johnson’s Knives Out is that I prefer its mix of genre tropes and social commentary to Jordan Peele’s Get Out. Frankly, the mix of Clue with an acerbic and biting look at race, class, and privilege in America is more entertaining to me than taking The...

‘Logan Lucky’ Review: Soderbergh Gets Silly

Philip Brown — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 16:00:21 +0000

The release of ‘Logan Lucky’ marks a return from self-imposed cinematic retirement for director Steven Soderbergh. You’d think that might mean the Oscar-winning filmmaker has an extra important and ambitious project that forced him back into the art form. Nope. The guy just wanted to have fun and has delivered one of his most endearingly...

Weekend Roundtable: Casting the Next James Bond

Josh Zyber — Fri, 27 May 2016 19:00:56 +0000

Daniel Craig swears that he’s done playing James Bond, and just turned down a huge payday to return as secret agent 007. Who should replace him? Shannon Nutt While I still think that Craig will re-up for one more Bond adventure, my vote for the new James Bond is Chiwetel Ejiofor. I think we can...

Weekend Roundtable: Your First James Bond Movie

Josh Zyber — Fri, 06 Nov 2015 20:00:29 +0000

When a movie franchise has been around as long as James Bond has, the majority of viewers going to see ‘Spectre’ this weekend weren’t even born when the first film, ‘Dr. No‘, was released to theaters back in 1962. I certainly wasn’t. When were you first introduced to Agent 007? This week’s topic has a...

‘Spectre’ Review: A Bond-Sized Victory Lap

Philip Brown — Wed, 04 Nov 2015 20:00:40 +0000

At its best, the Daniel Craig era of James Bond has been all about reinvention. ‘Casino Royale’ kicked things off with an origin story that allowed the Bond conventions to be twisted through the character’s inexperience. In ‘Skyfall’, Sam Mendes reverently deconstructed and toyed with the iconic images and elements of the series. (‘Quantum of...

Everyone has to start somewhere.

In this week’s Roundtable, we take a look at the humble beginnings for other actors who would...
