There are so many laughs you will probably have to see it again to catch the hilarious dialogue you missed.

Movie Review – Alita: Battle Angel
If it were 1994, I would’ve come out of ALITA sure it was the most amazing movie of all time.

Movie Review – Widows
There are only so many things in the film that really make it feel like a Steve McQueen film as opposed to just any other forgettable heist movie.

Movie Review – The Post
Not a lot of movies are vital. THE POST is.
Movie Review – Bright
Plays like the second installment of a mediocre trilogy.
Movie Review – The Greatest Showman
A flat-out glorious, larger-than-life MUSICAL (capitals required) and proud of it.
Worth Reviving – Scrooge
A beautiful recreation of a timeless classic.
Movie Review – Murder on the Orient Express
Branagh pays great attention to the overall ugliness of this crime and the sadness and loneliness that follows Poirot.
Movie Review – Battle of the Sexes
This historical Trump allegory with a better ending benefits from two excellent lead performances.
Reporting From The Floor of Comic-Con 2017
Paul Preston & Justin Bowler recall their shenanigans at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, July 20-22. Truly, the most wonderful time of the year.
Movie Review – War For The Planet of the Apes
One of the more sober and dark summer films to hit the cinema in a long while. But it’s effective.
Movie Review – Today I Watched…Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie
Paul Preston’s ongoing effort to watch a movie a day for the rest of his life. Today’s movie – “Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie”
Movie Review – Alien: Covenant
I can more or less recommend it. So there you go, ringing endorsement.
Movie Review – Snatched
Doesn’t reach the same heights as “Trainwreck”, but they find the funny often enough for me.
Movie Review – Today I Watched…Breaking Away
Paul Preston’s ongoing effort to watch a movie a day for the rest of his life. Today’s movie – “Breaking Away”.
Movie Review – Gifted
In Marc Webb’s new film, “Gifted”, we’re supposed to buy into the premise that Captain America’s niece is incredibly advanced and intelligent. Not so hard to do.
Movie Review – Logan
James Mangold and the screenwriters have delivered up a decidedly hard R adventure.
Movie Review – Assassin’s Creed
The first thing Fassbender is guilty of is hiring a director of photography who doesn’t own a light kit.
Movie Review – X-Men: Apocalypse
Ah, screw it. I enjoyed this movie.
MOVIE REVIEW – THE PEANUTS MOVIE
Odd today to think that kids would be expected to attend a movie that did not involve peril or violence or parents being offed – and love it.
MOVIE REVIEW – THE MARTIAN
What makes “The Martian” exceptional is how the high-production, Damon’s personality and the rescue mission tension all feed into what is essentially a “figurin’” movie, and make it widely appealing.
MOVIE REVIEW – SPY
Few scenes fly by without the jokes coming fast and funny. There are too many comedies today with missed opportunities and Feig and McCarthy don’t let any of those moments pass without delivering something hilarious.
MOVIE REVIEW – THE FAULT IN OUR STARS
Hollywood makes quick work of cannibalizing sister medias in order to shorten the costly creative process.
MOVIE REVIEW – PROMETHEUS
This movie is a perfect example of what happens when no one’s career is actually on the line.
MOVIE REVIEW – RED TAILS
With a thumping dub-step soundtrack, planes performing harrowing maneuvers, and requisite nasty enemies (Nazis, in this case), the trailers for “Red Tails” have clearly been geared to pump up visceral excitement in (likely) largely young and male audiences.
RISE OF THE FRANCHISE OF THE FACE
If Andy Serkis is nominated for an award, and for the record, I think he’d be fully deserving of one, hang on to your seats.
