So Long and Hanks For all the Finch

"Finch" is a heartwarming sci-fi parable

We now live in a world where there are so many streaming services that even giant-ass blockbusters that a few years ago would be taking up 10 screens at the local multiplex are now unceremoniously dumped online with no fanfare. Cinema is now mostly just a never-ending trickle of content across a dozen or so apps that we eventually might stumble across at midnight on a Tuesday when our cat jumps on our face while we're deep in a dream about Tom Hanks being our dad.

Baby, You Can Drive My Car

"Titane" stuns, disturbs and warms the heart

Listen, I'm about to very briefly explain the plot of a movie, and some of you are going to immediately decide never to see it.

Regal Roundup

Four mini movie reviews for the price of one

Sometimes the movies I end up seeing at the theater are just a product of what time they're playing over whether they're a film I really want to see in the first place. The theater is still a bit of a spontaneous decision for me, so sometimes I will just catch whatever is showing right when I get there, which is how I ended up catching four movies at Regal this weekend—none of which were the one I really wanted to see.
