Directed by: Joanne Mitchell Written by: Dominic Brunt, Joanne Mitchell, Tracey Sheals Happy fall, FlixChatter readers!

TV Review: BAD MONKEY – Bill Lawrence’s cheeky crime caper makes the most of Vince Vaughn’s gift for improv
Crime comedy is easily my favorite genre when it comes to episodic series. I’ve enjoyed The After Party, Only Murders in the Building, as well as Slow Horses (yes it’s a spy comedy but it also deals with crime investigation in a droll fashion). Now I can add Bad Monkey on Apple TV+ to my …
FlixChatter Review: BABES (2024)–A wildly wacky but refreshingly frank comedy about female friendship + motherhood
Whenever I’m on a long flight, I always take advantage of the time by catching up on older films I have missed. So I was delighted that Babes is available on my Delta flight to New England. Babes got glowing reviews out of SXSW, comparing it to [Paul Feig’s] Bridesmaids but with baby-making. The movie …
FlixChatter Review – ALIEN: ROMULUS (2024) – nifty action sequences aside, it’s basically more of the same as previous alien movies

This post is so long overdue! I've been wanting to highlight this underrated spy series since I saw the first two seasons (which were of course, fantastic). Well, last night AppleTV released the trailer for season 4. Well, let's just say, the show about a group of hapless spies just gets better and better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xo27sE2fdvs …
FlixChatter Review: GIRL YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE – the fascinating Milli Vanilli biopic charts the drastic rise & fall of the pop duo sensation
As a kid of the 80s, I love 80s music and 80s pop culture is close to my heart. I still remember distinctly when Milli Vanilli became famous, and I can even recall some of the lyrics of their hit songs Girl You Know It's True and Blame It On The Rain. Of course, it …
