Life needs to stop throwing crazy days at me in January, at least wait until March

Has anyone watched The Rip yet? Is it actually supposed to start in what feels like the middle of a scene? Something seems strange here

By itself, sleepwalking is a frightening condition posing several possibilities for endangerment. That’s one way of saying Sleepwalker doesn’t need all the absurd nonsense writer/director Brandon Auman has in store #Sleepwalker

"Leaving a safe harbor of a bunker and going across water, land, man vs man, war zones, and changing the English Channel, it was fun to create these different environments that felt real"

The chemistry and charm from the performances rise above the familiarity of the plot. #PeopleWeMeetonVacation is both a rom-com throwback and one that uses its clichés as a strength, even for cynics coming in

Not without some memorable kills, #Primate is so eager to get to the horror aspect that Ben’s presence and importance to this family are never established or emotionally felt, which flattens much of the investment it wants in the survival aspect

A fantastical adventure inside screens and across a fantasy realm that has more on its mind than adoration for that style, but rather the role screens can play to anyone, and a man’s personal journey to conquer his limitations in the real world #Obex

Today has been a day where everything is going wrong yet ending up fine in the end

Just watched a movie coming out on Netflix I was worried would suck, only to find out it was kind of a charming throwback that didn't deserve to be dumped by Sony. Then I looked up what else the director had done and now I'm even more mad it's not getting a theatrical release

The performances across the board are strong, with Daisy Ridley’s quieter, tender, and empathetic turn completely in line with what Zak Hilditch accomplishes in #WeBurytheDead

It’s a film about identity that suffers an identity crisis of its own. This is undoubtedly a more admirable swing than straight-up adapting #TheDutchman, but it also never figures out what it actually wants to do with that swing

I was asked to contribute to a piece in the Chicago Sun-Times about overlooked/missed films in 2025, and provided some words about Celine Song's brilliant romantic drama taking a sledgehammer to modern dating, #Materialists

chicago.suntimes.com/movies-and-t...
Chicago film experts recommend 10 can’t-miss movies from 2025 that you may have missed the first time around
How do films get overlooked? Many are increasingly bypassing theaters. Online platforms offer stand-alone films and episodic series. Only big-budget, star-studded Hollywood products get publicized.
