I’ve never been much of a car enthusiast, personally. I don’t even really like driving all that much; to me, it’s simply a way to get from one place to another. If I lived in a larger metropolitan area with an extensive public transportation system, I’d gladly ditch my car
While “Terminator: Dark Fate” was billed as the must-see big-budget blockbuster in theaters this past weekend (interestingly, it ended up under-performing), it wasn’t the new movie that most caught my attention. I saw a trailer for the historical biopic “Harriet” — about American icon and freedom fighter Harriet Tubman —
With less than two months to go until the premiere of “Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker,” the level of Star Wars hype in my household is officially off the charts. Even my husband, who isn’t a Star Wars fan, got caught up in my excitement and decided to go
Many times, the villain in a story is an even more fascinating character than the hero. We wonder why they chose this path, and what compels them to oppose our hero. Maybe their motivations are purely selfish, like Emperor Palpatine, who just wants more power, or maybe they’re more like
I can’t remember exactly how I got into Downton Abbey. I think a friend recommended it to me, and I watched the first season while it was still on Netflix. Needless to say, I quickly fell absolutely, completely in love with this show. I’d watched plenty of British period dramas
I don’t know what it was about that first trailer for “Hobbs & Shaw,” the latest in the Fast and Furious movie franchise, but as soon as I saw it, I thought, “I have to see this movie.” The funny thing is, I’m not even a Fast and Furious fan.
Up until about five years ago, I’d never seen a Quentin Tarantino film. Other films fans would lovingly give me grief about this, and so I finally decided to sit down and watch one. I popped his first movie — “Reservoir Dogs” — into my DVD player and then hit
While not all of Disney’s live action remakes of their animated classics have been a hit with critics, they do appear (at least for the most part) to have found success at the box office. The live action “Beauty and the Beast” earned a staggering $1.26 billion worldwide. “The Jungle
“Avengers: Endgame” is, admittedly, a tough act to follow. How do you continue the franchise after an epic, three-hour film that wraps up a story arc spanning 10+ years and 20+ films? Actually, “Spider-Man: Far From Home” doesn’t necessarily answer that question. The latest Spidey film serves as more of
Okay, it’s time call a winner a winner. Aladdin is the most successful movie of the Summer. And yes, I’m including Avengers in this. With $9.3 million this past weekend, and a spot at number 4 at the Box Office, Aladdin has cross over to the $300 million mark domestically.
How do you let go of a dream that you’ve been holding onto for so long that it’s become a part of who you are? Even when that dream has turned into something toxic, you just can’t imagine your life without it. I really wasn’t expecting to find parallels between
For better or worse, “Dark Phoenix” marks the end of the X-Men franchise as we know it. It’s a little like a political lame duck; it’s being released after the Disney/Fox merger but does not tie into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Reviews for the film haven’t been kind — it’s
