Review: ‘Hustlers’, Jennifer Lopez Is A Showstopper In Lorene Scafaria’s Exotic Crime Thriller
A few years ago audiences were hooked by Channing Tatum’s abs to pay for Magic Mike, only to discover it wasn’t just two hours of riding the pony of half-naked men. It was a movie that Steven Soderbergh actually wanted to be about something. The big draw for Lorene Scafaria’s Hustlers has been similar, with promises…

Review: ‘Kung Fu Panda 4’
Flimsy And Unnecessary Sequel Proves This Dojo Is Fresh Out Of New Moves
Eight years have passed since Dreamworks Animation’s Kung Fu Panda 3, but the franchise hasn’t sat dormant in the least. There have been multiple television series and various specials that have kept Jack Black’s joyful, bulbous panda warrior Po quite busy. I love these movies and think they are the best animated franchise Dreamworks has to…

Dan Akroyd Brings Zombies to Life In the Trailer for R.L. Stine’s ‘Zombie Town’
The whole ‘movie shown in a theater is magical and makes the film come to life’ sub-genre is one of my all time favorites. Ok, maybe it’s just The Last Action Hero and The Forbidden Kingdom I’m thinking of, but still it’s a plot device that usually leads to fun in my experience. I’m sure some people…

Sadly, there will be no trip to Sundance next year. The pandemic has seen to that. The event earlier this year was among the last to take place before the world turned to shit, and sometimes I wonder how we didn’t all come away from it sick. Anyway, even though vaccines are starting to be…

Review: ‘The Main Event’
Netflix’s Light-Hearted WWE Film Is A Harmless Jobber
As a professional wrestling enthusiast of the highest order, the first thing I noticed about Netflix’s The Main Event, the streamer’s latest partnership with WWE Studios, was they go deep with the lingo. Superstars’ names are dropped like victims of Randy Orton’s RKO, while one kid talks about the weekly show’s production values. Apparently, WWE…
