Christmas movies have a certain rhythm to them—a formula, if you will—that we’ve come to expect. And yet, within that predictability lies their charm: the cozy predictability of love lost and found, the festive sprinkling of forgiveness and hope, and the twinkling lights casting a glow on well-worn tropes. Our Little Secret, a screwball comedy…
There’s something almost mythological about the Beatles’ rise to fame, a tale so universally familiar that it risks losing its humanity in the retelling. That’s where Beatles ’64 steps in, stripping back the layers of legend to show us the real people and the cultural whirlwind they ignited. David Tedeschi, with a team that includes…
David Gordon Green’s Nutcrackers comes into the holiday lineup with a bit of nostalgia tucked under its arm. It’s not hard to see what Green was aiming for here—a throwback to the scrappy, heart-on-its-sleeve family comedies of the ’70s and ’80s, the kind that didn’t try too hard to be polished but somehow made their…
Let’s talk about Sweethearts. It’s a movie that, on the surface, feels like it could fit neatly into the sea of direct-to-streaming comedies that pop up, get a few chuckles, and then vanish from memory. But Sweethearts tries to be more than that. It’s a buddy comedy wrapped in teenage awkwardness and sprinkled with the…
Life has a funny way of reminding us about the small, often-overlooked connections that hold everything together. Sometimes, that reminder comes wrapped in a warm, witty TV show like A Man on the Inside. Created by Michael Schur, this latest comedy-drama blends genuine humor with moments of introspection, leaving you chuckling one moment and wiping…
There’s a frustrating emptiness at the heart of Cruel Intentions, and not the kind that makes you reflect deeply on life’s brokenness or the human condition. It’s the kind of emptiness that comes from a lack of substance, from stories so entangled in surface-level scandal that they lose sight of anything meaningful. Watching this eight-episode…
There’s something both comforting and unsettling about Get Millie Black. On one hand, it’s familiar—the crime drama beats we’ve seen before, the twists we expect, the characters battling their demons while chasing truth. But on the other hand, it feels uniquely raw. Maybe it’s the Jamaican setting, vibrant yet steeped in pain, or the way…
From the start, Porcelain War demands your attention. It’s one of those films that doesn’t let you breathe, doesn’t let you sit comfortably. It yanks you into its world of battlefields, shattered ceramics, and weary artists clinging to their crafts as the world collapses around them. It’s haunting, moving, frustrating, and, honestly, a little overwhelming….
Ridley Scott has returned to the Roman arena with Gladiator II, a bold attempt to recapture the raw intensity of the original. It’s big. It’s loud. It’s everything you’d expect — and maybe a little less. From a Christian perspective, though, there’s a lot to unpack here. The story isn’t just about swords and sand;…
Sequels are tricky. They carry the weight of what came before, the expectation to do more, and the challenge of being both familiar and fresh. Moana 2 doesn’t entirely escape these currents, but it swims boldly forward, balancing nostalgia with darker, deeper waters. As I watched, I found myself torn between awe at its ambition…
