The GOTG trilogy we all know and love goes out with a bang. James Gunn’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” trilogy is coming to a close with Vol. 3. After the messy “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” here is an MCU… Read More ›
Sci Fi
Space Oddity
A solid romcom that has plenty of oxygen. Kyra Sedgwick’s movie directorial debut of “Space Oddity” is no biopic or doc about the classic David Bowie song (although Brandi Carlile sings a cover version of it), but it is a… Read More ›
Shazam: Fury of the Gods
This sequel lacks the laughs and superpowers of the original. It’s amazing to me that despite the fact that Billy Batson can switch back and forth from a human teen to an adult superhero by saying the words “Shazam,” he… Read More ›
65
A real dino-sized mess from two of the geniuses behind “A Quiet Place” I hope you don’t forget to bring your I.D. for “Scream VI” or at least take your friend’s advice on “Creed III,” because “65” is one of… Read More ›

Well than worth the wait. Seeing “Avatar: The Way of Water” on a Dolby 3D screen is an unbelievable experience. James Cameron assembles the right team of filmmakers and artists to allow the Na’vi to swim underwater in a new… Read More ›
Strange World
Dazzling colors and so many themes make Disney’s latest a fun ride. Jake Gyllenhaal and Dennis Quaid both collaborate as a son and father for the first time since “The Day After Tomorrow” in “Strange World,” the new Disney animated… Read More ›
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
A worthy sequel that honors the late king of Wakanda. The death of Chadwick Boseman has not gone without a whimper, as his legacy portraying Black Panther, Jackie Robinson, James Brown, and Thurgood Marshall has kept people inspired. His last… Read More ›
