Who knew that Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom, and Nick Mohammed would make a riotous comedy trio? Produced by the director of the last three Jurassic World movies, Colin Trevorrow, who also serves as one of its writers, along with three others.

FlixChatter Review- BALLERINA (2025) – Ana de Armas proves her mettle as a femme fatale, but this ‘John Wick’ spin-off is more of the same
As the John Wick franchise has grossed over $1 Billion dollars across four films, it’s no surprise that a spin-off has been in the works. Ballerina is essentially John Wick 3.5 as it’s set between John Wick Chapter 3 and 4, with Ana de Armas as Eve Macarro. Just like John, Eve is trained in …
JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 4 Review – pure adrenaline actioner that’s wickedly Reeve-ting
It's been four years since Chapter 3, aka Parabellum so I had to brush up a bit on the JW 'mythology' as it were, which gets more complex with each movie.

FlixChatter [Guest] Review: HERCULES (2014) & Spotlight on Rufus Sewell as Autolycus
I love going to a movie when I’m really not going there to see the movie. This can only mean one thing – Rufus Sewell is once more on the big screen. He played one of Hercules' band of mercenaries, Autolyclus, and wow, did he ever buff up for this role. He also got to …
FlixChatter Review: Jack the Giant Slayer
I've actually never seen any Jack and the Beanstalk movie before, but of course I'm familiar with this bedtime story. I was curious enough about this one given that it's directed by Bryan Singer. It starts unpredictably enough, with Jack's father reading him a bedtime story and of course Jack always believed it's not just …
