From the opening ten-minute single-cut scene in Netflix's "Outlaw King" to the climax, it's a fast-paced rise of Robert the Bruce from fraitor to King.

Remember the first of the two movies about the White House having taken over by a terrorist siege? No, not White House Down with Channing Tatum, that one

Halloween is a franchise that represents one of the pillars of the modern era of horror films. Introducing us to the William Shatner mask-wearing Michael

Now, don't panic when I say "national mythos" in the headline of this review. I'm in no way suggesting the moon landing was a myth. Apollo 11 and the

When word first emerged that we were going to be getting a Venom movie, people were excited at the prospect. It was always a popular Spider-Man storyline

Watching the trailer for Bad Times at the El Royale gives fans of a certain genre of film a particular thrill. The kind of people who get excited anytime

So by now unless you've been living under a rock you are aware that A Star is Born isn't a new film. In fact this is the fourth time it's been developed

Shane Black's "The Predator" hits theaters this Friday, and the director/writer's quirky vision is more fun than it is smart.

The 5th film in The Conjuring series "The Nun" is....a film we have now seen. Suffered through, is probably more accurate.

"The Happytime Murders" had all the earmarks of being something awesome -- puppets, directed by veteran Muppet director -- but it falls flat.

Netflix's "Prodigy" is a laser-focused psychological thriller that excels on pretty much all fronts -- script, directing, and acting.

"Crazy Rich Asians" may not be the most original story in the world, but the charming cast and well-written script make it a must-see.

Warner Bros.'s new giant prehistoric shark film "The Meg" is a popcorn-snacking summer movie that mostly keeps to the shallows.

The 6th (wow, seriously?) "Mission: Impossible" film "Mission: Impossible- Fallout" really explodes out of the gate with action and more.

Review – "Unfriended: Dark Web" is a fine introduction to found-footage thrillers from a webcam. Less horror, more thriller.

Skyscraper was hyped as a cross between Die Hard and Towering Inferno, and that's almost entirely a lie: The film has a flaccid, un-energized feel to it.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is better than its predecessor film, but it's missing so much about what made the original so great.

Pixar is at it again with Incredibles 2, written and directed once again by Brad Bird, and it seems that lightning can strike twice.

"Hotel Artemis" has an epic cast, sadly trapped in a mediocre script. We review the film starring Jodie Foster, Dave Baustisa, and Jeff Goldblum.

"Deadpool 2" is totally your friend with benefits who does that thing you like, if you enjoyed the first Merc with a Mouth film.

Let's cut right to the chase here: "Solo: A Star Wars Story" is not a bad film, but as we know, Star Wars is a highly subjective film series.

Even before the screening of 'Life of the Party' had begun I was musing about how I had yet to see a McCarthy vehicle that I actually enjoyed.

The Con is On is an enjoyable enough event, mostly carried by the cast, who seem to all be having a blast playing these entirely over-the-top caper-film archetypes.

It's been 10 years and 19 movies, but "Avengers: Infinity War" is finally here. A spoiler-free review of the totally worth it wait.

Review: Any film that aims to encourage self-empowerment and self-confidence is laudable; unfortunately I Feel Pretty's hook is more akin to when "that" uncle at Thanksgiving dinner makes a very awkward joke at the table.

Review: While Rampage has impressive moments, it gets pulled down to Earth by its inability to know what tone to strike and where to aim.

The Miracle Season is a film that will likely have a relatively limited shelf-life in theaters but wind up having a relatively devoted following once it

With the vast wasteland of horrid comedies out there, I did not go into Blockers expecting much more than some frat-level humor, some piss jokes, and no

WB's 'Ready Player One' hits theaters this weekend and while it's sort of good, it could have been truly great in the hands of Spielberg.

The new 'Tomb Raider' film starring Alicia Vikander is FINALLY a movie based on a video game that isn't cringeworthy after years of the opposite.
