Two years ago, the 2017 adaptation of the legendary Stephen King novel It became a complete phenomenon.

Dark Phoenix, the end of Fox’s long running X-Men franchise, can’t come and go quick enough in my opinion. The longevity of Fox’s X-Men pictures produced some outstanding entries like Logan, The Wolverine, Day’s of Future Past, First Class and the very first two releases.

While acclaimed filmmaker Terrence Malick is no stranger to The Criterion Collection, one could see The Tree of Life as one of the best examples of a film made with the eventual intention of being released in this manner. While the movie received plenty of plaudits and accolades in 2011, its regard as one of […]

This August, The Tree of Life, visionary filmmaker Terrence Malick’s magnum opus starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain, will join the Criterion Collection in an edition featuring a new cut that includes nearly fifty minutes of additional footage.

Acclaimed writer Aaron Sorkin has enjoyed a successful run as a screenwriter. Molly’s Game, his directorial debut, based on a memoir by Molly Bloom, was an attempt to accomplish more, even if he did have to settle for another writing nomination at the Academy Awards. Regardless, one can see why his interest was piqued with […]

I must have a very simple mind. Alright, I definitely do. When I first saw the trailer for Molly’s Game I just didn’t get it. My fiancee had to explain it to me. Isn’t that sad? Ha ha. I blame it on exhaustion and stress from work. However, after subsequent viewings of it and a […]
