“Underwater” is a film whose marketing campaign is doing it no favors. Going in, after having seen the trailers, I was expecting it would be a modernest slapdash blend of a greatest hits mash up of “Alien,” “The Abyss.” and “DeepStar Six.” While the trailers don’t let in too much on the story specifics, but […]

“Knives Out” is the exact type of counter-programming that was needed for the long Thanksgiving weekend. Written and Directed by Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s Rian Johnson, this is a throwback to the types of murder mystery-whodoneit that we haven’t really seen in a while.
