Zak runs away from his care home to make his dream of becoming a wrestler come true.
The more I reflect on 2019, the more inclined I am to believe it is the best years of the decade (for movies at least). It is absolutely ridiculous how many brilliant films we got. One of the standouts is and will forever be The Peanut Butter Falcon. The entire cast is brilliant, but the highlight is clearly…

Inspired by her mom's rebellious past and a confident new friend, a shy 16-year-old publishes an anonymous zine calling out sexism at her school.
This is one that took me forever to get to, and there are plenty more from 2021 that I am working on, but Moxie was worth the wait from an entertainment standpoint. The cast is solid, and the film has this charm to it that many will be able to take…

The time loop premise strikes again, and we have another winner. Maybe I am just a sucker for this type of film, but it is…

In a world where supervillains are commonplace, two estranged childhood best friends reunite after one devises a treatment that gives them powers to protect their city.
Ben Falcone has made yet another masterpiece with Melissa McCarthy. In all honesty, I do enjoy when he pops up in certain comedy-centric films, but his directorial efforts are just misfire after misfire. This is also putting a huge damper on Melissa McCarthy’s career, as…

A 16 year-old girl returns home from camp and learns that her mother has a new boyfriend, one she intends to marry; a man whose charm, intelligence and beauty make him look like he's not human at all.
This 2020 film is trending on Netflix, so I thought I would give it a shot. First off, this is not the early 2000’s anymore; why are we casting 27 year old (even…

When an unconfident young woman is cursed with an old body by a spiteful witch, her only chance of breaking the spell lies with a self-indulgent yet insecure young wizard and his companions in his legged, walking castle.
The American voice cast here is phenomenal (as always with these films). Christian Bale and Jena Malone highlight some top-notch performances. What keep this from being one of my favorite Ghibli films is simply the somewhat scattered…

The Unholy will absolutely manage to come through for certain Horror fans. It does feel like a throwback to those early 2000’a scare-injected experiences that never required the audience to think too much. The…

At a Jewish funeral service with her parents, a college student runs into her sugar daddy.
This film is an anxiety-inducing trip that will catch you off guard from start to finish. It isn’t necessarily a “fun watch,” but it absolutely doesn’t need to be. It does exactly what it sets out to do. There is a charm and quirky nature to the tone of the film, but it is…

A teenager discovers the world of urban horseback riding when he moves in with his estranged father in North Philadelphia.
Concrete Cowboy has a lot going for it from an emotional perspective, but the film suffers from what feels like a lengthy runtime and lacks in urgency. It thankfully makes up for a few of its mistakes with the cast showcasing top-notch chemistry and all-around skill. The film is also fairly…

Determined to ensure Superman's ultimate sacrifice was not in vain, Bruce Wayne aligns forces with Diana Prince with plans to recruit a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions.
This one holds up extremely well upon rewatch, and this is a bit shocking due to the runtime. Again, there are plenty of scenes that could have been shortened or “sped up,” but…
