Release: Monday, May 6, 2019 (Netflix) →Netflix Written by: Gong Ge'er; Junce Ye; Yan Dongxu; Yang Zhixue; Frant Gwo Directed by: Frant Gwo Describing The Wandering Earth as an ambitious movie is an understatement. That's like saying Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad had cult followings. The sheer scale and spectacle on display make the likes of Michael Bay and Peter … Continue reading The Wandering Earth
Release: Friday, February 8, 2019 (limited) → Redbox Written by: Robert D. Krzykowski Directed by: Robert D. Krzykowski When it comes to a title as extravagant as The Man Who Killed Hitler and then the Bigfoot it's hard not to build up some extravagant expectations.

Release: Friday, March 8, 2019 →Theater Written by: Anna Boden; Ryan Fleck; Geneva Robertson-Dworet Directed by: Anna Boden; Ryan Fleck Captain Marvel figures to be a significant piece in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, acting as both a standalone origins story and a precursor to Jon Favreau's standard-setting Iron Man; ipso facto it predates the entire MCU. That's a pretty bold decision … Continue reading Captain Marvel
Release: Friday, January 18, 2019 →Theater Written by: M. Night Shyamalan Directed by: M. Night Shyamalan All the pieces finally fall into place for M.

Release: Friday, August 10, 2018 →Theater Written by: Dean Georgaris; Jon and Erich Hoeber Directed by: Jon Turteltaub More like . . . The Meh. I really couldn't give a shark shit about this movie, but here goes this anyway. It says something about Jason Statham's box office pull that I found my tingling buttocks planted in a … Continue reading The Meg
Release: Friday, July 6, 2018 (limited) →Theater Written by: Boots Riley Directed by: Boots Riley Sorry to Bother You is the filmmaking début of Boots Riley, and the only thing it may be more than ambitious is strange.

Release: Friday, July 6, 2018 →Theater Written by: Chris McKenna; Erik Sommers; Paul Rudd; Andrew Barrer; Gabriel Ferrari Directed by: Peyton Reed You've read it everywhere: Ant-Man and the Wasp is a refreshingly lightweight summer adventure that offers up more laughs than big character moments. It's more of a superhero side dish than an entrée. But that's okay … Continue reading Ant-Man and the Wasp
Release: Friday, February 23, 2018 →Theater Written by: Alex Garland Directed by: Alex Garland Annihilation is the reason for many things. It is the reason why science fiction is my cinematic genre of choice -- there is something thrilling about breaking the rules and getting away with it, and here is a world in which the laws of … Continue reading Annihilation
Release: Sunday, February 4, 2018 (Netflix) →Netflix Written by: Oren Uziel Directed by: Julius Onah The Cloverfield Paradox, a surprise addition to the Cloverfield collection which debuted on the heels of Super Bowl LII, is itself an experiential paradox.
