You can’t keep a good bug down. Amazon’s goofy superhero comedy The Tick has returned for a second season that, in some respects, improves over the first. Evil villain The Terror may be gone, but that doesn’t mean The City (that’s the name of the place, “The City”) is safe. Arthur (Griffin Newman) and The...

Ever since she stole ‘Bridesmaids’ away from a cast too good for that to be easy, Hollywood has struggled to find a movie worthy of Melissa McCarthy’s sudden stardom. After a bunch of financially successful but not particularly good attempts, ‘Spy’ comes as something between a pleasant surprise and a relief. It’s no groundbreaking masterpiece...

‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Review: Space Madness

Philip Brown — Fri, 01 Aug 2014 13:00:47 +0000

Marvel Studios expands out of superhero yarns and into the realm of goofy space opera with ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’. The movie is a rip-roaring adventure that’s silly without feeling slight, and dark without feeling morbid. The only problems are the occasionally distracting creeks in Marvel’s now very familiar formula. Thankfully, only a madman would...
