We’ve finally arrived at the first big release of 2024, Matthew Vaughn’s Argylle, a star-studded action comedy that could provide plenty of early-season fun, at least while we wait for the Super Bowl. Vaughn has had a fascinating career, producing some of the most original works of the last two …

Fifteen years have passed since Hollywood suddenly rebranded Liam Neeson as a bonafide action star in Pierre Morel’s revenge thriller Taken. At the time, Neeson was known as a prestigious actor who occasionally ventured into genre territory (such a Darkman, Star Wars, and Batman Begins) but had never carried his …

It’s no secret that Star Wars, as currently constructed, desperately needs a massive facelift. Recent TV offerings such as The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and The Mandalorian Season 3 were disappointments. At the same time, news of a Rey Skywalker-themed Episode X has been met with mixed reactions …

I’ll always lament Christopher McQuarrie’s failed big-screen adaptation of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher. The muscle-bound hero with an aptitude for solving insidious crimes and dealing with preposterously violent criminals was tailor-made for the big screen. He deserved the same A-plus treatment Hollywood afforded Tom Clancy‘s Jack Ryan. Alas, despite top-notch …

I’m here to talk about a film I didn’t know existed until a few weeks ago — the 1986 comedy/drama Running Scared, starring Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines. Here’s the gist: Crystal and Hines star as Danny and Ray, a couple of cops who get in a little too deep …

I’m not alone when I say 2023 was underwhelming for pop culture. Aside from the momentum hype behind Barbenheimer, there weren’t too many enormous milestones for cinema geeks like me to gush over. That’s not to say the year was a complete loss. In fact, I’ve managed to round up …

Hopefully, 2024 can offer more pictures akin to Oppenheimer and less half-hearted efforts like the abysmal Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Looking at the slate, it appears we’re in …

Michael Mann, the auteur behind such classics as Heat, Ali, and Collateral, remains one of our finest directors.
