  • REVIEW: Infinity Pool

    Listen, I walked into Brandon Cronenberg's newest film Infinity Pool fully prepared to be amazed, horrified, shocked, aghast, mortified, etc. Was I any of those things? Meh...

  • REVIEW: You People

    I review Netflix's new comedy 'You People', starring Jonah Hill, Eddie Murphy, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Lauren London, and a whole bunch of other cool actors and comedians. I didn't know I needed David Duchovny playing the piano while earnestly singing "Ordinary People", but apparently I did and that's exactly what I got.

  • FILM GIANT: Texas Chainsaw Massacre

    HOLY COW. I can't believe I have the nerve to call myself a movie fan and it's taken me until now to watch 1974's classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. This may or may not be related to the fact that I'm scared of it. What did I think? Was I able to sleep afterward? Who will survive and what will be left of them?

  • REVIEW: Plane

    In which I, a certified Non Action Movie Person, see Plane, the newest action flick starring none other than the king of B Movie fantasticness, Gerard Butler. Also starring Mike Colter and his intimidating biceps.

  • REVIEW: The Pale Blue Eye

    I watched Netflix's new "Edgar Allan Poe works as a detective" flick starring Christian Bale, Harry Melling, and a whoooole bunch of underused cool people. Was my inner English literature nerd satisfied by Melling's potrayal of Poe? Was my outer Christian Bale stan satisfied by his portrayal of a hardboiled tragic detective? Listen to find out more.

    **EDIT** In this episode I mentioned that I was confused about Edgar Allan Poe's Southern-inflected accent choice as I was under the impression that he was closely associated with New England. In doing this I forgot to double check and research that Poe did indeed spend a great majority of his formative years in Virginia and thus the accent is likely accurate. I had a feeling I was wrong as soon as I said it but I am not technologically clever enough to edit my audio. I apologize! Harry Melling does a terrific job in the role.

  • REVIEW: The Whale

    I'm baaaack! And reviewing Darren Aronofsky's much-discussed new film "The Whale" starring the Internet's new best buddy forever, Brendan Fraser.  First things first, Brendan is the best and don't you forget it. I'm happy for him and I think he'll probably win the Oscar. Do I like the film? ....eh......

  • REVIEW: Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

    Did I finally get a chance to see the long awaited (by me!) sequel to Knives Out and did I still love Daniel Craig as gentleman detective Benoit Blanc? Yes. Is Rian Johnson a *little* obvious with his choices of villains? Also yes. Does any of this matter? Listen to find out more.

  • REVIEW: The Menu

    I review Mark Mylod's newest flick The Menu, a mean-spirited little satire/suspenseful black comedy starring Anya Taylor-Joy (what doesn't star Anya Taylor-Joy?), Ralph Fiennes (more things should star Ralph Fiennes), Nicholas Hoult, Hong Chau, Janet McTeer, Judith Light, and a bunch of other fun people who are absolutely eating their roles up. What do I think? What do you think?

  • REVIEW: Triangle of Sadness

    In which I review Ruben Ostlund's new film Triangle of Sadness, an acerbic little satire starring my new bae Harris Dickinson and America's stoner uncle Woody Harrelson. Do I agree with the Cannes committee who gave this film the prestigious Palm d'Or? What do you think?
