A cute romantic comedy, Imagine Me & You is light and fun with likeable characters and a standard formula. So many romantic comedies follow the same formula. Girl meets boy, they fall for each other, there is an obstacle in their way, one of them says they can’t be together, and then they end up…
A tough film about addicts in New York, The Panic In Needle Park follows a young couple as they spend time together, develop codependency, try to make a name for themselves, and look for their next fix. Some movies are incredibly important, but unbelievably difficult to watch. The Panic In Needle Park is one of…
An elegant movie about the creator of the Wonder Woman comic, his wife, and their lover, Professor Marston & The Wonder Women is a fascinating look into a polyamorist relationship that existed far before its time. Comic book characters have long been part of society. They typically stand for power and take action for the…
A historical drama full of mystery and a touch of thriller, Julia is the story of two friends who would do anything for each other, and during WWII, one of them does. There are some actors that you associate with specific roles. Whether you grew up with a particular movie or something left an indelible…
A hysterical cringefest, Friendship is a buddy comedy that you will be glad that you are watching and not actually living. Very funny stuff. As people age, men seemingly stay home more. They get comfortable with their lives, their work, their partners, and their children, and going out with buddies can get a little lost…
The Puffy Chair is a classic example of a movie-making “shiny thing,” as you think you’re supposed to be focusing on one area, but it’s everything else around that truly matters. An excellent character study that you never expect. I am a huge fan of indie films. I love when something of quality can be…
With a very small cast and an understated vibe, Hope Gap is an impressive drama about the breakdown of a marriage. Not flashy and extremely layered, Bill Nighy and Annette Bening are excellent here. When one thinks of marriage, you think of something static – the joining of two people in union, until death do…
If you’re looking to have some fun with a movie, Kingsman: The Golden Circle is just the ticket. The sequel to the original Kingsman film, it is light, stylish, and silly. The original Kingsman film, Kingsman: The Secret Service, came out in 2014. It had some depth, an interesting story, and a great cast. Action-packed…
When I saw the trailer for Fight Or Flight, I had very little interest in seeing it. I am so glad that I did, though – it is definitely worth the watch. There are so many revenge films and spy films that they sometimes start to run together. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them…
A sweet movie about a woman with a passion for cooking who learns to be a sushi chef, East Side Sushi is a super enjoyable time. Specific passions can be very unique. You may love singing while no one else in your family can carry a tune or become an avid camper when all you’ve…
A solid film that gives you three different perspectives of the real-life rape charges of Marguerite towards Jacques in 1386 France, The Last Duel takes you on a contemplative ride. There are times that I give myself a snicker over the movies that I choose to watch. This time had nothing to do with the…
A stylish and funny sequel to A Simple Favor, Another Simple Favor is full of vivid colors, beautiful locales, and some extremely funny moments. When A Simple Favor came out in 2018, I heard a few rumblings about it. It took me a few years to watch, but it is a clever mystery starring Anna…
