If Southern Gothic is defined by peculiar characters and macabre goings-on set largely in the postbellum South, then The Devil All the Time neatly fits into this sub-genre. With twisted, unstable preachers, nescient young women, a corrupt sheriff, and a sexually deviant, murderous couple, we’re taken on a road that’s dark and winding. Like the …
The Dig (2021) slips us inside the archaeologist’s mind and elegantly converges past and present. Graceful imagery of the English countryside adorns the film; a romance grows while another is severed before it sprouts, and archaeology becomes about more than artifacts in and of themselves. The film successfully connects the distant past to the individual …
The documentary, MLK/FBI (2021), persuades us to take a closer look at the man and the icon Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his shaky relationships within the U.S. government.

Secondly, the movie is not even remotely connected to any of the awesomeness of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle or Sherlock for that to matter. Let’s …
What comes to mind when you think of a loop story? The concept has been leveraged so many times and in so many ways that it is almost a challenge now to come up with something inventive without ending up extracting something from what has already been released. Palm Springs movie breaks that notion by …
The title should sum it up to be really candid. But, said no movie review ever. So writing The Lovebirds review, I will try to throw in some real reasons why this movie worked as a very light entertainer and why on numerous occasions it didn’t. The Lovebirds movie amuses you with some good humour …
Yet another good action flick Charlize Theron is once again a part of. This movie reminds you of Atomic Blonde just with somewhat lesser action. If at all there is an improvement coming from that you can say it is in its story and direction. But it would definitely make you miss the stuntmen David …
So glad that DC has one thing going on good for them sans all the dirty politics. It’s their comic world and the DCAU. The Animated Universe weaves another gorgeous tale, a sequel to the 2017 movie. Whilst you might have your qualms for the prequel, Apokolips War simply beats it to a pulp. It …
