Eternals Review: A lot to Think About
I had to think about the Eternals. A lot. First off, overall, I liked the film. I agree with many reviewers that the big-named stars in the film were underused, but an ensemble piece was never going to let Angela Jolie or Selma Hayek shine. And they knew that. My sense is becoming part of […]
5 Ways to Actually Fix The Oscars
5 Ways to Actually Fix The Oscars Last year’s Academy Awards found its smallest audience ever, 9.23 million. Many people attributed this to pandemic woes and a lack of connection to nominated films. This year is a different story. Theaters are open, the movies are readily available for in-home viewing, and many are really good. […]

Miriam “Midge” Maisel is on the scene and making her mark. Throughout The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, season 2, we watch Midge master her comedy skills and explore a new love life all the while maintaining her perfectly polished persona.

Midge Maisel is working very hard to put everything in her life in the right place, then her husband goes and blows it all up! The housewife trope may be tired, but Midge is just getting started.

Delayed Again, The Orville shares Season 3 Sneak Peek
To say The Orville‘s return is “long-awaited” is starting to feel like an understatement. The last episode of the show aired in April 2019.

A few months back, a teaser trailer announced the season three […]
Jolt Review: How to Handle (or Not) Several Thousand Volts of Kate Beckinsale
If you like to see Kate Beckinsale kick ass, and feel somewhat ambivalent about it, then spend an afternoon or evening with Jolt. A hyped-up Beckinsale’s Lindy takes anger management to a whole new level with enabler Dr. Munchin (Stanley Tucci). This is a completely stupid film with no redeeming qualities. Everybody got a paycheck […]
The Matrix Resurrections Review: A Circuitous Path Back to the Same Place
Everybody likes a resurrection story. Well, not everybody. Seems that fans and critics alike held very mixed feelings over the Lana Wachowski epic that brings audiences back into the matrix. And this time, they bring them in through a side door for which only Lana has the key. I won’t keep up the suspense. I […]
