It should deal with the subject matter more. Last year, we received “Small Things Like These,” which was a small, but quite essential Irish drama about a man who shares kindness with […]
Steve
Good Boy
Bow Wow Wow! This movie is creepy. We’re supposed to see “Good Boy” through the perspective of the dog. It’s not a POV movie where the humans would speak gibberish nor does […]

The Thursday Murder Club
A cute whodunit in the old folks home. While Hulu gives us “Only Murders in the Building and while Rian Johnson gives us “Knives Out” and “Poker Face,” Netflix gives us the […]
