The Wedding Banquet, as a remake, reintroduces a classic narrative rarely offered by Hollywood lately. The film has a catchy plot where the main leads hatch a scheme, and the more the scheme unfolds, the less it works. Romantic comedies used to do it all the time. For example, How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days permitted Kate Hudson to

Read MoreSinners as a title may discourage the evangelical audience from seeing the film. Yet, Ryan Coogler has more to say about spiritual warfare than most faith-based movies. His first breakthrough into horror touches on the deeply rooted religious backdrop of the 1930s Mississippi South, where people of color survived a racist landscape through resilience, grit, and the hope of an answered
Read MoreMarvel Studios’ Daredevil: Born Again was the most anticipated Marvel/Disney show ever. It was a significant return of the Man Without Fear, bringing together Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio on the screen once again. It took only 9 episodes to finish this season (not 13 as in seasons 1-3), which was a decision that many didn’t understand for a while. But,
Read MoreThe Last of Us returns with its second season, not only with explosive action mixed with violence, but with emotional moments that are quieter, more introspective, and has the potential to be far more devastating in the future. The season’s premiere episode, “Future Days,” is not only a direct reference to the Pearl Jam song featured in The Last of Us
Read MoreIt’s always a huge event when Doctor Who returns, but there’s something particularly special about this new season. After the 60th anniversary and the spectacular first season with Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, the series starts its second season once again under Russell T. Davies. “The Robot Revolution” is the premiere episode of the new season, and it doesn’t just kick
Read MoreIn the Empire of Orrun the people devote themselves to one of eight gods that watch over Orrun: the Fox, the Raven, the Tiger, the Ox, the Bear, the Monkey, the Hound, and the Dragon.

Read MoreThings are always a little off in Arkham, but now something’s really wrong. Nightmares are plaguing the citizens. Half of them are afraid to fall asleep, the other half are caught in a sleep so deep they can’t wake up. No one knows what’s going on or why otherwise healthy people just won’t wake up. When April May’s best friend, Nella,
Read MoreMy Hero Academia first premiered nearly 10 years ago. It rapidly became one of the most popular shonen in recent years, earning the franchise a spot as part of the Big Three of New Shonen. Now, with the premiere of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, fans will return to the world they know with a bold new look at Hero Society—this time

His newest project, The Bondsman, introduces us to his completely new type of role, which mixes horror, dark humor, and supernatural elements. This Prime Video series was created by Grainger David and produced by Blumhouse Television. The series feels like a fresh twist on the bounty hunter and supernatural genres. We
Read MoreJared Hess is one of those filmmakers where the audience will always split down the middle. He thrives on killing the brain cells of the general public. His films push the boundaries of idiocy, and they do so with intentional earnestness. In A Minecraft Movie, characters break out into musical numbers for no reason, Jason Momoa and Jack Black defy the
