Avengers: Infinity War
There’s a lot of ambition for “Avengers: Infinity War.” It received a worldwide release date of April 28, moving from May 5th. Usually, those Marvel movies would open a week […]
Lean on Pete
In the month of April, I was given two touching films about boys and their horses. “The Rider” is about an ex-rodeo star, struggling to overcome a near-fatal head injury, […]
I Feel Pretty
As far as I know, people have a mixed reaction towards Amy Schumer. Some like her, others hate her, and some think she needs the right stuff to be talented. […]
Rampage
No matter what they say about “Rampage” breaking a video game curse, you pretty much know that’s a lie. It’s nothing more than a violent, reckless, and idiotic mess that […]
The Rider
No Movie Stars Were Used in the Making of this Film “The Rider” is a drama with no big movie star names, but an actual family playing different people. They […]
Beirut
Written by Tony Gilroy of “Bourne” fame, “Beirut” is not a masterpiece that I would see again and again. My problem with the movie is how convoluted the story gets, […]
You Were Never Really Here

Ready Player One
What we’re most excited for in Steven Spielberg’s “Ready Player One” is the virtual reality-the fantasy world where you can be anyone-human, alien, or cartoon character. In fact, this movie […]
Isle of Dogs
Wes Anderson is a master storyteller, and I told him that years ago at a Times Talks program, and when it comes to animation, he delights us with his visions, […]
Unsane
I just found out that director Steven Soderbergh shot “Unsane” with the iPhone 7. Look at the quality and tone the iPhone has given to the movie, especially with its […]
Pacific Rim: Uprising
The first “Pacific Rim” from 5 years ago, originally directed by Guillermo Del Toro, was a colorful movie. I’ve enjoyed the colorful lights, the Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robot battles, […]
Vertigo
Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 mystery thriller “Vertigo” has it all-fears, romance, lies, twists, obsession, and temptations. I’ve watched it for the first time, as part of its 60th Anniversary, and I […]
