Review: Wonder Woman (2017)

Gal Gadot stars in Warner Bros. Pictures' WONDER WOMAN

I know tons of people were worried about how Wonder Woman would turn out. And based on the track of the movies from the DCEU, their concerns were perfectly understandable. Well, let me first say that Wonder Woman might actually be the best overall movie in the short history of this run of films. I’m sure reading that is good …

(L-r) Jon Bass, Alex Daddario, Zac Efron, Dwayne Johnson, Kelly Rohrbach, Ilfenesh Hadera star in Paramount's BAYWATCH

Not too long after it begins, I noticed that Baywatch was going to follow the same path as the movie version of 21 Jump Street from a few years back. These are simply more comedic takes on a once popular property from decades before. Looking at how successful 21 Jump Street and its sequel were, it’s easy to see why …

Liev Schreiber and Jim Gaffigan star in IFC Films' CHUCK

Since that’s considered the pinnacle of a professional boxing career, not having that to rely on is odd. What makes it even weirder is …

Review: Alien: Covenant

Image from 20th Century Fox's ALIEN: COVENANT

My only hope beforehand was that Alien: Covenant was better than Prometheus. To a significant extent, they were able to make that happen as they made sure to correct some of the mistakes that were made. They also attempt to expand on some of what was already introduced. While this is definitely the kind of good start that I appreciate, …
