Hollywood loves remaking films from other countries. In the 2000s and early 2010’s, there were several remakes from the Far East and some of them were very successful. The Ring and The Departed are two great examples of successful remakes. Lately, Hollywood has churned out remakes from Europe and Jake Gyllenhaal has starred in two …
FlixChatter Review: Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022)
With a title like Everything Everywhere All At Once, one cannot expect a tidy movie where everything is in place and an ending tied with a big red bow. It’s a movie perfectly timed for its release… tax season is upon us and everyone is into the multiverse. The two completely unrelated things are somehow …

FlixChatter Guest Review: You Won’t Be Alone (2022)
Like that perfect sunset we may see only a handful of times in a lifetime, just as rare is experiencing a film that humbly stands out among genre-specific exercises.

TV Review: Marvel’s MOON KNIGHT (2022)
Still fresh from the mega-blockbuster that is Spider-man: No Way Home, Disney makes sure the MCU is never far from our minds.

I'm thrilled to see …
New Trailer Spotlight – TOP GUN: Maverick
I feel the need...the need for speed! Woo wee!! I needed something to get my mind off the fiasco that was Oscars 2022! This proved to be the kind of distraction I needed! Boy, can you believe it's been 36 years since the first Top Gun came out? I was still a pre-teen at the …
Musings on #Oscars2022 – The Good, The Bad + The WTF
Happy #OscarsNight everyone!! Honestly, I wasn't all that enthused about the #Oscars this year, especially after they decided back in February that they won't present 8 categories LIVE but presented during the off-air segment... those categories are documentary short, film editing, makeup and hairstyling, original score, production design, animated short, live-action short and sound. Ugh, …
