Not even Hades can spoil Steve and Rob’s fun in this final holiday. When I saw “The Trip” in 2012, I’ve never imagined this film would start an artisan franchise. “The Trip […]
The Trip to Greece
Trolls: World Tour
This animated sequel removes its split ends, and makes a much better hairstyle. I don’t know what kind of good luck charm I have, because so far this year, sequels to movies […]

Terminator: Dark Fate
It’s basically its own remake of “Judgement Day.” Linda Hamilton is back as Sarah Conner, who prevented the future of Skynet from happening, and saves her son John, the future leader of […]
