In the opening section, we see a little girl witness a 3D video glitch in a lovely old-fashioned house, as an AI voice alerts us, “Motion detected.” The video glitch reaches out of a closet and […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Joel Edgerton, Sigourney Weaver, Quintessa Swindell, Esai Morales Writer: Paul Schrader Director: Paul Schrader Distributor: Magnolia Pictures Release Date: May 19, 2023 MASTER GARDENER is one of those films that makes a reviewer contemplate existential questions. These are not just the ones within the framework of the movie, like the nature of redemption, and what qualifies as redemption, but also the nature of reviewing. Whatever the purpose of a review may be, it is not to criticize a filmmaker for doing something different with the subject matter than the reviewer would have done. On the flip side, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Keli Price, Karissa Lee Staples, David Lipper, Malu Trevejo, Matt Rife, Fernanda Romero, Eddie McClintock, Kenny Yates, Kipp Tribble, Amaris Davidson, Abdelhameed “Dooley” Ibrahim, Tobin Bell, Danny Trejo Writer: Keli Price Director: David Lipper Distributor: Uncork’d Entertainment Release Date: May 9, 2023 The first thing it’s important to know about CURSE OF WOLF MOUNTAIN (at least, for the werewolf movie completionists among us) is that it is not a werewolf movie. Instead, director David Lipper and writer Keli Price ambitiously combine a slasher format with emotional drama. CURSE OF WOLF MOUNTAIN also causes one to reflect […]Read On »

Rating: TV-MA Stars: Dianna Agron, Melora Hardin, Jay Ali, Saul Rubinek, Grace Porter Writer: Alexis Lucknow Director: Alexis Lucknow Distributor: Hulu Release Date: April 28, 2023 The title of CLOCK refers to the biological one that everyone is widely believed to possess. Except, contrary to this assumption, not everyone does in fact have a biological clock – that is, the desire to have children. The conflict between the belief and the reality are what give CLOCK its premise. Ella Patel (Dianna Agron) is a star interior designer, happily married to surgeon Aidan (Jay Ali), with a full life that she […]Read On »

However, it plays out like either the pilot for a broadcast TV detective series like BIG SKY, with which it shares some plot elements, or else a procedural episode that focuses on the guest characters. Jo (Javicia Leslie) manages a high-end big-city bar frequented […]Read On »
