Movie Review: DOWNTON ABBEY: A NEW ERA

DOWNTON ABBEY: A NEW ERA Director: Simon CurtisStarring: Maggie Smith, Hugh Bonneville, Elizabeth McGovern, Michelle Dockery, Allen Leech, Laura Carmichael, Penelope Wilton, Robert James-Collier, Jim Carter, Hugh Dancy The hit TV series Downton Abbey originally ran for six seasons and fans couldn’t get enough.

There’s a joyous aura abuzz with the changing times and it’s about to get a little scandalous as head matriarch, the Dowager Countess, admits she has a secret villa in the South of France.

Movie Review: TOP GUN: MAVERICK

TOP GUN: MAVERICK Director: Joseph KosinskiStarring: Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Glen Powell, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Monica Barbaro, Lewis Pullman, Val Kilmer, Ed Harris, Danny Ramirez, Jay Ellis, Greg Tarzan Davis, Bashir Salahuddin Top Gun: Maverick is the perfect kickoff for the summer blockbuster season, and dare I say that it’s better than the original? Audiences lost their mind back in 1986 when Tom Cruise played aviator Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, and now Maverick’s cocky and reckless attitude is back. He’s never backed down from being a Navy aviator and is considered the fastest man alive as he pushes boundaries, yet again, literally soaring to newRead More →

DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS Director: Sam RaimiStarring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor Marvel has been teasing the concept of the multiverse in many of their projects recently, but they’re diving in full force with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Movie Review: A HARD DAY’S NIGHT

A HARD DAY’S NIGHT Director: Richard LesterStarring: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Wilfrid Brambell, Norman Rossington This was originally written in 2014 as part of my Criterion Collection series. The Fab Four are seen hopping on a train after running away from hoards of screaming fans. While John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr are playing themselves in the film, you immediately get the feeling that this is an exaggerated look into the life of the Beatles as they are getting ready for a performance. They allow themselves to show the goofier sides of their personalities. Where else would youRead More →

Movie Review: X

X Writer/Director: Ti WestStarring: Martin Henderson, Brittany Snow, Kid Cudi, Mia Goth, Owen Campbell, Jenna Ortega Writer/director Ti West made a name for himself in the horror community with movies like The House of the Devil and The Innkeepers. He’s now back to his slasher roots with X. West intentionally takes a fairly simple horror premise and spins it out to a devilishly good time with X. It’s 1979 and a group of young filmmakers head out in a van to a farmhouse in rural Texas to make a porno called “The Farmer’s Daughters.” Martin Henderson plays Wayne, the producer with Kid Cudi and BrittanyRead More →
