Watch New ‘THE REVENANT’ Trailer

Watch New ‘THE REVENANT’ Trailer

Bears, Leo, Hardy and the dude who directed Birdman. The Revenant has it all. As if that isn’t enough to get your panties in a bunch,  a new hot trailer is primed to make you regret not investing more time in finishing up that time machine so you could hop to December. Seriously Mr. Academy...

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘SICARIO’

Out in Theaters: ‘SICARIO’

Emboldened by Roger Deakin’s screamingly accomplished cinematography, Jóhann Jóhannsson’s  hypnotic score, Benicio Del Toro's unforgettable performance and Denis Villeneuve's prudent, cold-blooded direction, 'Sicario' commits cinematic terrorism against our desire for…

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘STONEWALL’

Out in Theaters: ‘STONEWALL’

General audiences will find things to like in 'Stonewall' but the fact that the LGBT community will not embrace the historically inaccurate account spells certain death for this light-hearted drama.

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘GOODNIGHT MOMMY’

Out in Theaters: ‘GOODNIGHT MOMMY’

A foreign, art house horror movie, 'Goodnight Mommy' is cinema for cinephiles and horror completists. Slow-moving and occasionally brutal, it will however summon sincere scares and leave audiences with permanent…

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘COOTIES’

Out in Theaters: ‘COOTIES’

With no sense of purpose, reliance on thin scatological  humor and an abundant lack of screenwriting prowess, 'Cooties' turns a great cast of underdogs into lame, annoying cardboard cutouts. It…

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘GRANDMA’

Out in Theaters: ‘GRANDMA’

Juggling droll comedy with some heavy issues, 'Grandma' is a crowd-pleasing, skillful blend of humor and drama with an absolutely winning performance from Lily Tomlin.

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘PAWN SACRIFICE’

Out in Theaters: ‘PAWN SACRIFICE’

Edward Zwick and Tobey Maguire conspire to bring life to the dark side of chess prodigy Bobby Fischer, resulting in an unusually entertaining account of paranoia, celebrity and sporting.

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘BLACK MASS’

Out in Theaters: ‘BLACK MASS’

Featuring what is unarguably Johnny Depp’s best performance in years, Black Mass suffers under the weight of its own ambition. Too sprawling and rushed to ever settle into the moment,…

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: ‘EVEREST’

Out in Theaters: ‘EVEREST’

Marrying top-notch technical alchemy with excellent performances across the board and a narrative that’s universally powerful, 'Everest' is a big picture triumph - the tentpole spectacle film that 2015 needed.…
