Never has so much been riding on the success of a Superman film like this one. This is the first movie from the newly created DC Studios' shared universe, so its success is crucial for gaining traction and sparking renewed interest in Superman and the DC brand.

James Gunn’s SUPERMAN teaser trailer – a battered superhero, dapper Lex Luthor, Krypto the superdog + more
It's been nearly half a year since I posted a trailer on this site, but as a longtime fan of Superman, I knew I had to do a post about James Gunn's SUPERMAN (retitled from Superman Legacy). Plus this drops as I'm feeling under the weather as I've had a cold for over a week …
Double Reviews: Based-on-real-events thrillers THE ORDER + SEPTEMBER 5
Welcome to another FlixChatter double review edition! I thought I’d combine these two films as both are based on real events dealing with threats of terrorism, albeit from two different groups. Both are excellent, gripping thrillers I highly recommend. THE ORDER The Order refers to a Neo-Nazi terrorist group that was active in the U.S. …

FlixChatter Review: JUROR #2 (2024) – Clint Eastwood’s engrossing courtroom drama has me feeling torn in all the best ways.

FlixChatter Review: Those Who Wish Me Dead (2021)
When I first heard of this movie, Taylor Sheridan's name immediately grabbed me as I think he's one of the best screenwriters working today. I haven't seen Angelina Jolie in quite a while either, and it's been ages since she's starred in an action thriller. Unlike in Lara Croft, Mr. & Mrs. Smith or Wanted, …
