Pitt takes an emotionally-packed Interstellar journey to save humanity. Yes, I’ve seen the trailers for “Ad Astra,” a Sci-Fi entry from writer/director James Gray. But I haven’t paid fully attention to them, […]

Abominable
This Yeti is actually pretty cool, but too much comedy steals the show. I was cynical about “Abominable,” the latest feature from Dreamworks Animation, because of how the trailers often portray it […]

Too many demons, but something wicked this way comes. There’s a similar reaction to “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Endgame,” and “The Matrix Reloaded” and “Revolutions.” It was a Pennywise choice to split […]
