‘Wicked: For Good’ Review: More of a Political Thriller Than a Bubbly Musical (and That’s for the Better)
Looks like I will once again be spearheading the campaign to give the former Nickelodeon child star an Oscar. “Wicked: For Good” is the sequel to last year’s “Wicked,” and serves as the adaptation of the Broadway play’s second act. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande reprise their roles as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda…
‘Die My Love’ Review: A Deranged Glimpse into Parenthood
Well that sure was… something! “Die My Love” follows a new mother (Jennifer Lawrence) who seems to slowly slip into madness alongside her husband (Robert Pattinson) in their isolated Montana home. Nick Nolte, Lakeith Stanfield, and Sissy Spacek also star, while Lynne Ramsay directs. 2025 has been a pretty darn good year for movies but it…
‘Bugonia’ Review: An Uncomfortable, Thrilling, and Funny Sign of the Times

It follows a military psychiatrist (Rami Malek) who is tasked with determining the competence of German officials, including…
‘Frankenstein’ Review: A Monster Movie with an Eye for Detail
Universal’s Dark Universe may have started and ended with “The Mummy” in 2017, but between this and “Nosferatu” we may finally be getting the classic monster cinematic universe after all. “Frankenstein” is directed by Guillermo del Toro, who has been vocal about his desire to make a film based on Mary Shelley’s infamous monster for 20 years. It…
‘One Battle After Another’ Review: Comedy Meets Action in PTA’s Latest
In “One Battle After Another,” director Paul Thomas Anderson delivers a unique take on action with a strong cast led by Leonardo DiCaprio, showcasing humor amidst serious themes. With a hefty budget, the film impresses with its engaging score, fluid action sequences, and well-developed performances, despite uneven tone in certain aspects.
