A horror movie a social worker wouldn’t want you to see, but you have to anyway. Danny and Michael Philippou, the twin Australian filmmakers whose “Talk To Me” was a big hit […]
Bring Her Back
Karate Kid: Legends
This sequel isn’t much of a fighter. “Karate Kid: Legends” combines both Ralph Macchio’s fighter Daniel LaRusso with Jackie Chan’s trainer Mr. Han. Now, it’s interesting that both versions take place in […]
Bad Shabbos
A Jewish comedy that breaks a lot of Shabbat rules. “Bad Shabbos” is the second independent film I saw this year to deal with an unexpected death after the British dark comedy […]

Lilo & Stitch (2025)

Mission: Impossible-The Final Reckoning
A fun, but overlong MI conclusion. That is if it is the last entry. If you recall the first part of “Mission: Impossible-Dead Reckoning,” Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt had to stop the […]
Jane Austen Wrecked My Life
Like a real life Jane Austen story for this lonely writer. It was such fun for me to make some pretzel candies, while watching “Pride & Prejudice,” which has celebrated its 20th […]
