[Review] “Ford v Ferrari”: Slow Rolling Start, but Nails Final Lap

“Ford v Ferrari” is the kind of studio vehicle that feels like it was engineered to earn award nominations nearly as much as the Ford GT40 was tailor-made to compete at Le Mans. From its leads Matt Damon and Christian Bale as race-car designer Carroll Shelby and driver Ken Miles, to the slow establishment of […]

“Terminator,” like “Alien” and “Halloween,” has been a storied franchise; a classic original and a highly regarded second installment, only to have its various follow-on sequels be far less successful. Now we’ve arrived at movie number 6 with “Terminator: Dark Fate,” and finally have something that can be looked on as a suitable successor to the […]

Let me open up by saying that “Countdown” is not by any stretch a bad film. It’s got some decent runs of jump scares as well as tension, however its PG-13 rating keeps it firmly rooted on the lighter side of the “blood and gore” rating’s fence. As a first time feature film outing by […]

That was so long ago that AMC’s “The Walking Dead” wouldn’t yet premiere for another year. Back then Zombie films weren’t rare, to be sure, […]

Ang Lee is a director with a respectable track record behind him, with the likes of “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, and “Life of Pi”. Now he’s back helming “Gemini Man” with a script co-penned by “Game of Thrones” co-showrunner David Benioff and starring Will Smith and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Smith stars as Henry Brogan, a […]
[Review] “Joker” Delivers a Career-Defining Performance in New Way

Let’s get this right out of the way at the start – “Joker” is a brilliantly executed film with a central performance that will without a doubt garner Joaquin Phoenix an Oscar nomination. That said, this is as far a cry from the Joker’s we’ve ever seen before as Heath Ledger was from Cesar Romero. […]
