Movie Review: HOUSE OF GUCCI

HOUSE OF GUCCI Director: Ridley ScottStarring: Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, Al Pacino, Jared Leto, Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek, Jack Huston Director Ridley Scott shows no sign of slowing down as House of Gucci is his second big film to be released in 2021 following The Last Duel. The name Gucci was synonymous with wealth, style, and power. Their fashion house couldn’t be stopped and was full of large personalities within the Gucci family. It was 1978 in Milan when Patrizia Reggiani (Gaga) met young Maurizio Gucci (Driver) at a masked party. It was love at first sight for her when he discloses he’s a Gucci.Read More →

Movie Review: THE LAST DUEL

THE LAST DUEL Director: Ridley ScottStarring: Matt Damon, Adam Driver, Jodie Comer, Ben Affleck, Alex Lawther Matt Damon and Ben Affleck won Oscars together for writing Good Will Hunting.

Movie Review: ANNETTE

ANNETTE Director: Leos CaraxStarring: Adam Driver, Marion Cotillard, Simon Helberg Imagine if Marriage Story was turned into a performance art piece of rock opera theater. That’s the vibe I was getting with Annette, starring Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard. Driver and Cotillard’s characters are somewhat of a power couple both being performers with high acclaim. As Henry McHenry, Driver plays a stand-up comedian who’s not really funny but draws a large crowd for his angry stage antics. Marion Cotillard’s Anne is an accomplished soprano playing to sold out opera houses. There’s a bit of a power struggle as Henry’s a chauvinist who wants more ofRead More →

Movie Review: STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER

STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER Director: J.J. AbramsStarring: Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Lupita Nyong’o, Billy Dee Williams, Ian McDiarmid, Kelly Marie Tran, Carrie Fisher How do you end a saga after three trilogies? Director J.J. Abrams does just that with a satisfying conclusion in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Adam Driver is out for blood as Kylo Ren. His rage is stronger than ever before. He’s massively greedy and with the return of Emperor Palpatine, he knows he can potentially rule the galaxy. Rey (Ridley) is continuing on in her Jedi training. The force is massively strong within her,Read More →

Movie Review: MARRIAGE STORY

MARRIAGE STORY Writer/Director: Noah BaumbachStarring: Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson, Laura Dern, Alan Alda, Ray Liotta, Julie Hagerty Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson star as Charlie and Nicole, who at first seem like a couple madly in love, but the reality is that their marriage is falling apart. Charlie’s a theater director and Nicole’s an actress, but their careers and lifestyles are not as compatible as they once were. Stuck in the middle of their divorce is their 8-year old son. It also stars Laura Dern (her lawyer), Alan Alda (his lawyer) and Julie Hagerty plays as her mother who doesn’t want to say goodbye toRead More →

Movie Review: BLACKKKLANSMAN

BLACKKKLANSMAN Director: Spike Lee Starring: John David Washington, Adam Driver, Topher Grace, Laura Harrier, Alec Baldwin, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Robert John Burke, Frederick Weller I would love to see BlackKklansman showered with awards consideration. Spike Lee delivers a powerful epic that’s based on a true story set in 1972 and parallels 2017. It deserves strong work of mouth to get people talking about its impact. Here’s my reviewRead More →

Movie Review: STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI Writer/Director: Rian Johnson Starring: Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, John Boyega, Kelly Marie Tran, Laura Dern, Billie Lourd, Benecio del Toro, Gwendoline Christie Where do I even begin with the task of writing about Star Wars: The Last Jedi when I’ve just returned home from taking it all in for the first time? Repeat viewings will offer a bit of a different analysis. I’m still in a bit of awe filled with just about every emotion one could have from a Star Wars movie. I’d go so far as to say that theRead More →

Movie Review: LOGAN LUCKY

LOGAN LUCKY Director: Steven Soderbergh Starring: Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Daniel Craig, Katie Holmes, Farrah Mackenzie, Riley Keough, Seth MacFarlane, Brian Gleeson, Jack Quaid, Hilary Swank Cinephiles and movie critics alike were disappointed when Steven Soderbergh, the Oscar winning director of Traffic, Erin Brockovich, and the Ocean’s 11 trilogy, had announced his retirement a few years back. Thankfully that was a short-lived decision as he is back to his usual shenanigans with Logan Lucky, which reteams him with two of his Magic Mike actors Channing Tatum and Riley Keough. Tatum stars as Jimmy Logan who finds himself fired from his job working in a mineRead More →
