Another week, another remake/reimagining of a classic. Now, the appeal of this new interpretation of Warren Adler’s novel is the two leads: Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch as Ivy and Theo Rose. I vaguely remember seeing the 1989 movie The War of the Roses with Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas, which started with a war of words …

FlixChatter Review: BARBIE (2023) – Robbie perfectly embodies Barbie, but Gosling steals the spotlight with his hilarious Kenergy
