Luther: The Fallen Sun
(***1/2) What a story! Right from the beginning this psychological/crime/thriller grips you and doesn’t let up until it’s done. Caleb, a young white male custodian, works a night shift cleaning floors in an empty London office building. He gets a cryptic, threatening call: “Meet me here in 15 minutes … or everyone will get the […]
Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania
(**) The thrill is gone. The Marvel Universe shoots a blank. A tiny one. Arguably, the itty-bitty Ant-Man and The Wasp aren’t the most impressive superheroes. So, any new adventure for the self-promoting, mildly amusing Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), aka Ant-Man, and his sidekick/lover Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly), aka The Wasp, has got to […]
Filmmakers Tell Their Versions of Events at 2023 Sundance Film Festival
Filmmakers told a variety of stories at Sundance. Some were shocking. Some warm-hearted. Parent/child conflict was on view. The tech world ran amuck. That thin line between love and hate shrank. New tales. New twists. New messages. Lots to contemplate. Eileen (****) She didn’t see it coming. Eileen (Thomasin McKenzie), a small-town young Boston-area woman works […]
The 2023 Sundance Film Festival Explores Life in America
The Sundance Film Festival showcased a wide variety of films that focused on rural communities, the suburbs and cities. Some movies viewed Native American reservations, Latino high schools and Asian/American culture. All showed the reflections of people in motion. Fancy Dance (***) Solving a puzzling disappearance gives this mystery/drama a momentum that lasts for most of […]
Knock at the Cabin
(**) Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For some reason veteran hor/thr director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) has decided to put a lot of bad juju vibes out into the world. If you’re curious, read on. It’s an unusual premise, but so what. Four strangers (Dave Bautista, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Abby Quinn, Rupert Grint) think […]
Black Films Take Center Stage at 2023 Sundance Film Festival
Black life was on full view at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival. Legendary figures were given their due. Family dramas were showcased. Movies from the motherland added a unique perspective. Black directors, screenwriters, tech crews and actors showcased their talents at America’s biggest indie film festival in films that mattered. A Thousand and One (****) In […]
Missing
(***1/2) Sometimes when mom and dad are away, the kids will play. But what happens when mom and dad don’t comeback. Then what? The writers and directors of this amazing, tech-savvy mystery thriller know how to cut things close. That’s because they were the editors on the cult classic Searching. Back in 2018, that taut dra/hor/mys starred […]
House Party
(**1/2) Bringing the ‘90s back is hard work. So hard this new House Party reboot only gets half the job done. But when it’s on, it’s on. For those who were in a drug induced comma during 1990 (you know who you are), the duo Kid ‘n Play (Christopher Reid and Christopher Martin) threw a House Party that brought […]
A Man Called Otto
(**1/2) Can’t they all just get along? Apparently not, and the instigator is Otto Anderson (Tom Hanks), a grumpy old man with a chip on his shoulder and a grudge in his back packet. All might be well in their comfy suburban Pittsburgh, PA community, if Otto didn’t spread the hurt he feels to others. […]
