Unapologetically nostalgic, Rob Marshall’s new musical feels like a film out of time. Save for some technological improvements and a more diverse cast, this could have comfortably emerged intact some five decades ago. From...

It’s so simple, yet insanely fruitful for the genre. I’m sincerely grateful for little-known co-writers Brian Woods and Scott Beck for creating it and for star/director/co-writer John Krasinski for bring it to life. Monsters have overtaken...

This shouldn’t be surprising. These lovable magic horsies have been around for decades, and in recent years have taken off in popularity thanks to the internet’s love of connecting oddball fandoms. Look, the movie isn’t for me. That almost goes without saying. I’m not the target demographic....

This marital murder melodrama based on a bestseller is remarkably reminiscent of ‘Gone Girl’ and likely only exists because of that movie’s success. Unfortunately, ‘The Girl on the Train’ lacks all the wit, morbid humor and...

The movie is a ‘Snow White’...

Roger Deakins’ evocative and immaculate camerawork pulls the audience toward a drug house on the Mexican border that a task force literally crashes into. At first, it seems like the location might be a...

It’s not easy to translate Sondheim to the screen, if only because his musicals are so specifically designed for the stage. There have been exceptions of course, provided that a filmmaker...
