“You’ll float too,” when you read my review of “It.” I’ve never watched the full mini-series of “It,” based on Stephen King’s novel, but I have checked out the scenes with Tim […]
It
Good Time
There’s a lot of ambition going on in “Good Time,” a bizarre crime drama, directed by the Safdie brothers (Benny and Josh). It starts off provocative, middles nice, but finishes off confusing […]
Terminator 2: Judgement Day
“Terminator 2: Judgement Day,” the famous Arnold Schwarzenegger sequel directed by James Cameron, has been given a 3D re-release. I won’t review it in 3D, because it wouldn’t make any difference, but […]
