Angela Bassett Proves She’s the GOAT in the Best Athena Episode To Date

One of my very favorite things that 9-1-1 does is when the show has "begins" episodes that show flashbacks from the main characters' lives to show impactful moments in their careers as first responders. These episodes are typically about them…

The franchise’s funniest film to date

One of the reasons for the surprising longevity of the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise is in its main character’s very sponginess. Along with most other characters that reside in Bikini Bottom, SpongeBob (Tom Kenny) is stretched and molded, cut up, sliced,…

A Storm at Sea Without Depth

Simon Stone’s The Woman in Cabin 10 sails into familiar waters of psychological paranoia and maritime mystery, but it never quite finds its sea legs. Adapted from Ruth Ware’s 2016 bestselling novel, the film attempts to be both a sleek,…

Kyle Chandler & Diane Lane’s Political Drama With a Killer Cast Isn’t Deep Enough

‘NCIS: Tony & Ziva’ Finally Gives Us What We’ve Asked For All Season

Tony (Michael Weatherly) and Ziva's (Cote de Pablo) days as fugitives come to an end in the satisfying finale of NCIS: Tony & Ziva. The show erred on the side of caution, leaving practically no loose ends that would demand…

English Swimming Biopic Drowns Before It Even Begins

One golden rule of a biopic is that it should probably give you more of an understanding of its subject than you had beforehand, but Vindication Swim is less cinematic than its subject's Wikipedia page. Writer-director Elliot Hasler evokes the…

Shane Black’s Stylish but Shallow Crime Caper

Shane Black’s Play Dirty promises the kind of hard-boiled, sardonic heist movie that once made him Hollywood’s sharpest screenwriter. Adapted from Donald E. Westlake’s Parker novels (written under the pseudonym Richard Stark), the film reunites Black with the familiar cocktail…

Jeremy Renner Delivers the Best Season Yet of Taylor Sheridan’s Crime Drama

With numerous factions both within and outside the prisons of Taylor Sheridan and Hugh Dillon's Mayor of Kingstown, the series boasts some of TV's most nefarious villains. It's a challenge to continue upping the ante in a show of this…

A Reunion Between Indigenous Siblings Sets The Stage For An Intimate Story [TIFF]
