“Ghostbusters” May Make You Call Somebody Else
All sexist nerd rage aside, if anyone could have pulled off topping a 80’s classic, it would have been this group of women. (I might have thrown in Maya Rudolph for good measure, but to each their own.) Unfortunately, there’s not…
Did The Director’s Cut Shed New Light? Batman V Superman Revisited
It gave me no pleasure ripping this film a new one when it came out. And rightfully so, the theatrical cut is a pristine piece of garbage from a rotten pail. Plus, your film has to be pretty bad to…

Eddie Redmayne has been on quite the tear lately. After his Oscar win with the Theory of Everything, I was surprised to see him follow it up with another strong performance. Well, if we ignore Jupiter Ascending…because he had this…
“Glorious Indeed” The Hateful Eight & 70MM Roadshow Review
Besides the release of Star Wars, there was only one movie that I was looking forward to this December: The Hateful Eight. It was high on my radar since it was a Tarantino film, but also because he decided to shoot it on…
