Review by Vitali Gueron I was eagerly anticipating the release of the movie Skyscraper, partially because it is not a sequel and it is one of only a few blockbusters coming out this summer that aren’t part of a franchise.

FlixChatter Review: Ant-Man and The Wasp (2018)
I can't believe it's been three years since Ant-Man came out. Perhaps because we saw the character in Captain America: Civil War, it felt like I had just seen him recently. This movie actually takes place following the aftermath of Captain America 3, which explains why Ant-Man isn't fighting with his fellow Avengers in Infinity …

FlixChatter Review: SICARIO: DAY OF THE SOLDADO (2018)

FlixChatter Review: Incredibles 2 (2018)
The Incredibles was released 2004 when the super hero genre was starting to dominate the box office. It was one of the biggest hits of that year but somehow a sequel never got made. Now 14 years later, the Parr/Incredibles family is back to save the world from bad guys. Set not long after the …
Indie Film Spotlight: Smitten! & Q&A w/ writer/director Barry Morrow
Ahhh… romanza. One of the films I enjoyed most at Minneapolis-St. Paul Film Festival (MSPIFF) this year is this sweet, whimsical fantasy rom-com starring Darren Criss and Mãdãlina Ghenea set in the picturesque Italian Alps. Smitten! is a directorial debut from Minnesota's own Barry Morrow, whom cinephiles might recognize as the Oscar-winning writer of Rain Man …
