Streaming is 90% filler. These guides are the other 10%.
STREAMING · KANOPYSIFF Review: V/H/S 2
If you have five people each pour a different ingredient into a proton collider and turned it on full blast, you still couldn't expect…
STREAMING · PRIME VIDEOSIFF Review: MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING
Clark Gregg (The Avengers) and Fran Kranz (Cabin in the Woods) help fill out the ensemble and both prove their aptitude to chew the…
STREAMING · KANOPYSIFF Review: KINGS OF SUMMER
When all is said and done, The Kings of Summer is gratifying escapism with solid laughs, choked out by its willingness to engage in…
STREAMING · HOOPLASIFF Review: POPULAIRE
Depth was never the goal here and Roinsard scores major points for sticking to his flowery guns. Like similarly woozy Jean-Pierre Jeunet films, it's…
STREAMING · PARAMOUNT+Out in Theaters: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS
I wanted to like it. I wanted to love it. But I didn't love it and I only kind of liked it. It didn't…
STREAMING · NETFLIXSIFF Review: FRANCES HA
The comedy is easy and the drama meaningful in Baumbach and Gerwig's Frances Ha, making it a perfect storm of societal commentary that doesn't…
STREAMING · PRIME VIDEOSIFF Review: WHAT MAISIE KNEW
In the age of divorce as norm, this is a strikingly close-to-the-bone story that cuts deep into the ethos of modern day child-rearing. It's…
STREAMING · DISNEY+Out in Theaters: IRON MAN 3
There is a necessary amount of forgiveness involved in the Marvel Movie Universe but if you're willing to engage and let this world full…
STREAMING · KANOPYOut in Theaters: MUD
Themes of innocence lost and re-invigoration of character are beautifully woven into the subtext and come across as potent and intoxicating, allowing Mud to…
STREAMING · PRIME VIDEOOut in Theaters: OBLIVION
Oblivion has the DNA of The Matrix, Alien, Wall-E, Terminator and especially Duncan Jones' Moon and while it's hard to ignore the influence that…
STREAMING · NETFLIXOut in Theaters: 42
At the center of the 42 is a stirring tale of resistance, will-power, personal triumph and character- a Jesus-esque tale of turning the other…
STREAMING · NETFLIXOut in Theaters: EVIL DEAD
The bottom line: Evil Dead is a gory mess in both substance and execution. This bloody remake drops the campy laughs of the original…
STREAMING · HBO MAXOut in Theaters: STOKER
After all is said and done, Stoker adds up to a wonderfully paced creep-fest that knows exactly where to mine for the best elements…
STREAMING · HBO MAXOut in Theaters: SPRING BREAKERS
In Spring Breakers defense, it's not all bad. I didn't hate the nudity, in fact, I rather liked it but that seductive allure is…
STREAMING · KANOPYDissecting Cronenberg's COSMOPOLIS
While this certainly is not a film for everyone and I'm sure that any tween going to see this for their favorite Twilight vampire…
STREAMING · NETFLIX$3 Theater: THE IMPOSSIBLE
Ultimately, whatever I say at this point about this film will seem reactionary but I nonetheless feel poised to defend it for what it…
STREAMING · PRIME VIDEOOut in Theaters: SIDE EFFECTS
There's enough backstabbing, lies, betrayals and revelations to keep Side Effects tautand the audience on the edge of their seats. It's a rare thriller…
STREAMING · NETFLIXOut in Theaters: The Nature of Heroism in ZERO DARK THIRTY
To some, Zero Dark Thirty may overindulge in its 157 minute run time, but to call the end product unfulfilling is to misunderstand the…
STREAMING · HBO MAXOut in Theaters: LES MISERABLES
Ultimately, Tom Hooper's experimental Les Misérables is a jigsaw of performances with no central momentum that is both exhaustive and exhausting.
STREAMING · HBO MAXOut in Theaters: THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY
The end product is a loose hodgepodge of scenes, many of which could have been left for the blu-ray extended editions. Had Jackson focused…
Out in Theaters: CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER
While some may tire of superhero origin tales, Captain America's origin makes for a perfect first act; setting up the pathos of the character…
Out in Theaters: THOR
Ultimately, we can thank Branagh for adding layers of complexity to a character that just seems downright difficult to translate into film, as Thor…
