A fun mixture of fairy tale and sex comedy. How this basket maker can bring his wicker people to life is beyond me. It’s never really explained how they gain consciousness, other […]

Digger
Tom Cruise gives a brilliant performance in this ambitious mess. One of the most ambitious movies of the season is “Digger,” which is the first collaboration between Tom Cruise and director Alejandro […]
Lady
You can sure see this soon-to-be Invisible Woman. “Lady” goes all “Saltburn,” “Sunset Boulevard,” and “The Office” on the surreal genre, and has a crazy and witty attitude about it. Funny, I […]

The Musical
An unlikable comedy about an unlikable ruse. Don’t let the title “The Musical” fool you. The genre is not a musical, but it does regard a school play that was supposed to […]
