A funny and honest chemistry between a cantor and his much older student. I saw the new Jewish comedy “Between the Temples” virtually from the Sundance Film Festival,” and I would like […]
Between the Temples
The Union
Wahlberg and Berry have an espionage of cliches. A movie with Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry should be entertaining, but “The Union” isn’t much. It’s more forgettable and typical than it is […]
Jackpot
This action comedy bets and loses. 11 years ago, we got “The Purge,” which had the one day of the year when all crime, including murder, was legal. And you have until […]

Kneecap
This Irish band has enough shamrocks to carry their own film. When being interrogated, a young man named Liam is asked by the detective: “Do I look like I want to read […]
