Blu-ray Review: The Kitchen (2019)
Not sure went wrong here. Oscar-nominated screenwriter making her directorial debut. Cult fave comic miniseries as source material. Three great stars - Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish, Elisabeth Moss - headlining.![]()
Blu-ray Review: 10 Minutes Gone
A heist thriller with two marquee names but not enough thrills. Bruce Willis is really a supporting player here to Michael Chiklis. Should've been more interesting.![]()

Double Emmy winner (for star/writer/director/creator Bill Hader and co-star Henry Winkler) this HBO Original Series is funny and quirky.

Another entry in the Legacy/Warner Bros. MonsterVerse, a series plagued by uninteresting, F/X-heavy productions. The return of Kong might've signaled a return to the funny, inventive 'Skull Island.' But it's just more nonsense like 'King of the Monsters.'

Messy, frustrating film about three recent high school grads and the trouble they get up to. But thanks to a fascinating turn by Finn Cole, well worth checking out.

Taking a few obvious cues from 'Lord of the Flies,' this outer-space teen drama boasts impressive production values but suffers from undeveloped ideas at its core.
June 17, 2021 2:15 PM ET
Johnny Depp and Forest Whitaker star in the disjointed, and long-delayed, true crime drama about the alleged involvement of the LAPD in the deaths of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G.

It's 1987 and The Smiths have just announced their breakup. Pretentious proclamations ensue as a group of teen Smiths megafans explain what the band meant to them (and why you have no taste if you listen to anything else but The Smiths).
June 2, 2021 2:55 PM ET
It's a low-budget horror flick with no stars and a lot of gore. All-female punk band finds themselves fighting for their lives after falling victim to forcible body modification of the most extreme kind.
May 11, 2021 11:05 PM ET
Nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and winner of two (included Best Supporting Actor, Daniel Kaluuya of 'Get Out' fame). Nevermind that co-leads Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanfield are both visibly too old for the real-life figures they're playing. With acting this strong, it's easily overlooked.
April 26, 2021 11:50 AM ET
Several short horror stories tied together by a particularly twisted framing story, this 'Collection' is an oddball combo of whimsy, body horror, and old-school blood and guts.
April 5, 2021 1:40 PM ET
Less superhero and more super-silly, director Patty Jenkins (who once had the gall to suggest her first 'Wonder Woman' feature was an "art film") has crafted a monument to inconsequentiality with this overstuffed DC Comics sequel.
April 5, 2021 7:45 AM ET
Charlotte Kirk is the star and coscreenwriter of this gritty historical horror-drama, directed by Neil Marshall. This witchhunt-driven story is set in Great Plague-era England.

As Warner Bros.'s uneven MonsterVerse rolls out the new 'Gozilla vs. Kong,' the one that kicked it off in 2014 gets an impressive audio/visual upgrade.

A bunch of stars populate this new comedy, led by the always-reliable Allison Janney. But Warner Brothers has ultimately dropped a real turkey with this misguided suburban crime caper.

It is hard to follow the plot, but this Jackie Chan actioner has enough fun moments to make it effective as a "background" movie. In other words, put it on while you're working on other things and just want something buzzing away in the background.
March 7, 2021 6:50 PM ET
A brand-new beginning for the venerable horror series. You may be thinking, ANOTHER "Wrong Turn?" But this one is probably quite a bit different than you were expecting.
January 22, 2021 4:35 PM ET
It's another exorcism-themed horror film, but with a couple pretty neat twists. And a lot of old school gore effects sure to please anyone tired of modern digitized effects.
January 20, 2021 11:55 AM ET
A baffling tribute/parody of early-'90s era video games, in which a young girl gets trapped inside her favorite game. If that sounds like potential fun, it isn't.
January 18, 2021 9:05 AM ET
Rich, upperclass Marquis clashes with poor, lowerclass Ms. Eloise in this tense horror thriller. Omari Hardwick and Loretta Devine headline.
January 8, 2021 1:10 PM ET
Post-apocalyptic mayhem has never been so tween-friendly. 'Maze Runner' Dylan O'Brien stars in this routine adventure story.
December 20, 2020 2:20 PM ET
If confusion is your idea of entertainment, than Christopher Nolan's latest mind-bender is right up your alley. A polished production with plenty of panache that amounts to one big, 2.5 hour WTF.
