Illumination Studios is a relatively young company. Its first film Despicable Me in 2010 was a huge hit and made those cute yellow Minions a phenomenon (I even own some of its action figures). In just over a decade, they’ve manage to spun up three original (that is not based on existing IP) franchises… Despicable …

FlixChatter Review: Black Widow (2021)
When Natasha Romanoff was first introduced in the MCU 11 years ago in Iron Man 2, I didn’t immediately warm up to the character. Even Scarlett Johansson herself admitted Romanoff was portrayed more as a sex object, albeit a bad ass one. Thankfully, she continues to evolve for the better in the subsequent movies, as …
TCFF19 Review: JOJO RABBIT (2019)
JoJo Rabbit is one of those films that I'd call deceptively-flippant. If you've seen at least one trailer or promo clip, you'd automatically assume this would be a bizarre comedy.

FlixChatter Review – Captain America: Civil War (2016)
The buzz over the latest Marvel blockbuster has been through the roof. It's already made over $200 mil internationally before it even opened here in the US, so no doubt it will wipe out any competition here this weekend. I have to say that despite my increasing superhero fatigue, I was still looking forward to …
