James Gunn is Exactly What the DCU Needed – Superman Review

Superman (2025) has heart, it has humor, and it takes the Man of Steel in a direction that is interesting and human.

28 Years Later Review – A Surreal Evolution of Zombie Formula

28 Years Later is deeply weird—in the best way possible. While it’s still a zombie movie at its core, it also doubles as a surrealist meditation on death, managing to hit hard emotionally. Danny Boyle sheds some of the tension and horror that defined earlier entries in the franchise, and in doing so, creates something new.

Friendship Review – Mustaches, Mayhem, and Making Friends in the Worst Way

Friendship (2025) feels like an extended play of Tim Robinson’s I Think You Should Leave Half the jokes are laugh-out-loud funny, while the other half made me want to see just how far I could press into my theater seat.

Sinners Review – Cousins, Gothic Vibes, and Spiritual Steel Guitar

Sinners (2025) is an engrossing mix of Southern gothic horror, wonderful music, and incredible cinematography. Directed by Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed) and starring Miles Caton and Michael B. Jordan, it evolves the formula from From Dusk Till Dawn into a captivating and surprising fever dream.

Black Bag Movie Review: Spies, Lies, and Mixed Bags

Snappy dialogue, spies, and sexual tension are a near perfect recipe for a Steven Soderbergh film, but somehow Black Bag doesn’t always hit for me.

Jason Pargin is at his best with ‘I’m Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom’

Black Box retains Pargin’s signature chaotic style but has a clear point to make, a focused story, and characters that reflect internet-age America with pinpoint accuracy.

Conclave Review – These Scheming Cardinals are Spicy

How does a political thriller about corrupt priests stay under the 13 age ate? Simple, it handles difficult issues with the quiet austerity of a priest in the Vatican.

A Real Pain is a Joy to Watch – Film Review

A Real Pain is about the most cringe-inducing time I have spent watching a movie in recent memory, and yet it manages to be enjoyable.

Wicked Defied the Gravity of My Low Expectations

While still nonsense, Wicked takes the Broadway show and improves on it in enough ways to stand on its own.

Vampires, A Weird Sex Plague, and Willem Dafoe

Despite my discomfort, I thoroughly enjoyed the film, and it kept me rooted to my seat for every minute of the 2h12m runtime.
