Who would win in a fight? An ex-Marine or corrupt cops? “Rebel Ridge” kind of plays like a “Rambo” wannabe, as we follow a former solider who finds himself in a game […]
Rebel Ridge
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Almost as ghoulishly fun as the original. The rental video store I used to go to as a kid was called “Hollywood Video,” and when it was closing its doors, it was […]
The Killer (2024)
From Hong Kong to Paris With Love. I want to make an important distinction that while “The Killer” with Michael Fassbender is on Facebook, Peacock has “The Killer,” which is John Woo’s […]

Trap
The concert’s a hit; the outcome’s a miss. M. Night Shyamalan’s “Trap” is a curious one at that. I’m sure us fans and non-fans of his work are curious to know what […]
Harold and the Purple Crayon
This needs less cliches and more colors. “Harold and the Purple Crayon” is a celebrated children’s book, published in 1955 by Crockett Johnson. I haven’t read the book, but I understand the […]
