Movie Review: THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAGICAL NEGROES

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Justice Smith, David Alan Grier, An-Li Bogan, Drew Tarver, Aisha Hinds, Michaela Watkins, Rupert Friend Writer: Kobi Libii Director: Kobi Libii Distributor: Focus Features Release Date: March 15, 2024 While they are very different films and likely didn’t know about one another’s development, THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAGICAL NEGROES seems like it would fit splendidly on a double bill with AMERICAN FICTION. AMERICAN SOCIETY is the more fantastical of the two. It’s also the gentler film, even though fear of violence is a more explicit topic here. The film, written and directed by Kobi Libii, begins with […]Read On »

By Season 3 of RESIDENT ALIEN, now airing Wednesday nights on Syfy and streaming on Peacock, Alice Wetterlund’s character, bartender D’Arcy Bloom, has had several major changes in her life. One is that she and best pal Asta Twelvetrees (Sara Tomko) are now sharing a house together in the mountain town of Patience, Colorado. Another is that D’Arcy now knows that town doctor Harry Vanderspiegle (Alan Tudyk) who was originally sent to destroy humanity, but is now trying to protect us from another alien species, the Greys. This isn’t Wetterlund’s first spin around the TV galaxy: she was also a […]Read On »

Movie Review: IMAGINARY

Rating: PG-13 Stars: DeWanda Wise, Tom Payne, Taegen Burns, Pyper Braun, Veronica Falcón, Betty Buckley, Matthew Sato, Cecilia Leal Writers: Jeff Wadlow & Greg Erb & Jason Oremland Director: Jeff Wadlow Distributor: Lionsgate Release Date: March 8, 2024 IMAGINARY plays something like if ALICE IN WONDERLAND, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, and INSIDIOUS all got together and had a lively tea party that never went fully mad. That IMAGINARY has a PG-13 rating probably has something to do with its relative restraint, but so does the filmmakers’ evident desire to hit a specific set of notes. Children’s book author and […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Phoebe Tonkin, Madison Hu, Patrick Fischler, Lauren Bowles, Christopher Denham, Lamorne Morris Writers: The China Brothers (Paul China & Ben China) Directors: The China Brothers (Paul China & Ben China) Distributor: Quiver Distribution Release Date: March 8, 2024 (theatrical, VOD) PSYCHO, VACANCY and many other movies have found ways to make barely-tenanted motels terrifying. NIGHT SHIFT joins the subgenre, and if it’s not a Hitchcockian classic, it’s still pretty effective. NIGHT SHIFT begins with an atmospheric shot of a car driving down a lonely road. The lights of a town twinkle in the distance, but we’ll […]Read On »

It’s kinda/sorta like this or that, but it’s also pretty much its own thing. Billed at the opening as “A transgender & queer film by Alice Maio Mackay” – Mackay directed and co-wrote the script with Ben Pahl Robinson – and […]Read On »
