Far from a Pixar classic, but Holland and Pratt have their own magic. Disney and Pixar’s latest entry “Onward” has a similar vein as “Zootopia,” because it takes place in a parallel […]
Onward
The Jesus Rolls
This spin-off/remake wastes the iconic character and rolls gutter balls. “The Big Lebowski” will always be one of the Coen Brothers’ most extraordinary and nostalgic masterpieces of this or any other century. […]
