This month’s 20th Century Flicks, inspired by Paul Thomas Anderson’s first Oscar win, will have you begging to see it!
The Magic Faraway Tree (Movie Review)
“It does a good job of modernizing a fairly outdated story and giving it an overarching narrative, while also maintaining the core elements that made it whimsical.”
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (Streaming Movie Review)
“Ultimately, how much you enjoy Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice comes down to if you can get behind the combination of the dark comedic tone and the sci-fi twist.”
Love Story John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette (Limited Series Review)
“Love Story can be counted as another success in a growing collection of celebrity biopic series from Executive Producer Ryan Murphy.”
They Will Kill You (Movie Review)
“Part John Wick, part Kill Bill vol 1, part Old Boy, They Will Kill You is the closest thing we have to a live action anime and it is a bloody good time!”
Oscar What If… 2016
It is time to examine the films of 2015, celebrated at the Oscars in 2016.
Ready or Not: Here I Come (Movie Review)
“Weaving is the acting powerhouse pulling this whole project together… Unfortunately, she’s so good she blows her co-lead out of the water.”
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (Streaming Movie Review)
“With its flashy cinematography, larger sets, and heavy-hitter additions to the cast, the film is able to meaningfully expand the influence of the show.”
School Spirits Season 3 (Streaming TV Review)
“What works best for the show is the connective tissue between each character.”
Reminders of Him (Movie Review)
“Hoover has shown she knows how to reach an audience with her writing… I think her movies will have to be appointment viewing moving forward.”
Resident Evil Requiem or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Action (Video Game Review)
“The horror is some of the most genuinely scary the series has ever produced, the action is some of the most dynamic and intense the series has ever designed, and the story is one of the most emotionally resonant the series has ever told.”
Project Hail Mary (Movie Review)
“Project Hail Mary shows us what we’re capable of achieving when we all work together and it’s also just a damn powerful and entertaining movie.”
