I’m not allergic to bees; just this movie. Jason Statham’s Adam Clay is a former operative of a secret organization known as “Beekeepers,” which follows all the rules of ordinary bees. How […]
The Beekeeper
The Dirty South
A small time crime drama in a small town that has some big ambitions. “The Dirty South” is an independent crime drama that came out last November, and I haven’t heard about […]
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
This DCEU sequel drowns in its own dampness. This has been a very bad year for the DCEU. “Shazam: Fury of the Gods,” “The Flash,” and “Blue Beetle” have all bombed miserably […]
Rebel Moon-Part One: A Child of Fire
Zack Snyder’s worst movie in years has just gotten started. If “Jupiter Ascending,” both versions of “Dune” (the bad and the great), and “Star Wars” had an orgy, and one of them […]

The Family Plan
A misfire that stinks like yesterday’s diapers. The new Mark Wahlberg vehicle “The Family Plan” has Marky Mark quickly changing diapers and fighting gunmen, as if it was supposed to be appease […]

Fast Charlie
Pierce Brosnan sure is fast as a hitman avenging the late James Caan. The loss of James Caan hasn’t gone out with a whimper. As a kid, I’ve learned his name through […]
Candy Cane Lane
Eddie Murphy’s holiday comedy is pa-rum dumb dumb dumb. Eddie Murphy can get himself back together, as demonstrated in “Dolemite is My Name” and “Coming 2 America,” but this year, he didn’t […]
Silent Night
Joel Kinnaman doesn’t use his words; he just kicks ass. “Silent Night” is a dialogue-free action thriller that plays like “John Wick,” but with less words and Reeves and more action and […]
