Film Review: ‘Red Rocket’ (dir. Sean Baker)

The crisp cinematography, striking color palette, and calculated camerawork made this absolutely fascinating eye candy (and with such great substance of a story, too).

Film Review + Super Soundtrack: ‘Sing 2’

Luckily, Sing 2 hits all the right notes that the first Sing film did. These characters are hard not to love, and you really do almost forget that they’re animated. It also succeeds at aiming its story toward both adults and children alike. Who would’ve thought that a story about singing elephants, pigs, gorillas, and porcupines could be so touching?

Film Review: ‘Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss’ (dir. Tommy Oliver)

‘Juice WRLD: Into the Abyss’ is the fifth and final documentary from HBO’s Music Box series of docs. Sadly, Into the Abyss couldn’t be a more fitting title for this Juice WRLD documentary. It’s also appropriate considering the fact that he had the words tattooed in large writing on both of his forearms. Charting the rise of his massively successful career, it also subsequently charts his downfall and demise as his drug use gets more and more intense.

Film Review: ‘Being the Ricardos’ (dir. Aaron Sorkin)

‘BEING THE RICARDOS’ is at its best when it gets past the relationship drama going on between Lucy and Desi, delving into the inner-workings of “I Love Lucy” and peeling back the glitz and glamour of showbiz.

Super Soundtrack: “Pen15” on Hulu [Season 2, Part 2]

On paper, this show should not work at all. 30-somethings Anna Konkle and Maya Erskine play fictionalized younger, teenage versions of themselves as characters named, get this, Anna and Maya. Nonetheless, here we are sad that the final batch of episodes have just been released.

Film Review: ‘C’mon C’mon’ (dir. Mike Mills)

C’MON C’MON looks to the future in this genuinely heartfelt story that is visually stunning and makes even the most mundane emotions and parts of life seem universally felt. This character feels the closest to Joaquin Phoenix and is such a 180 from his role as the Joker. Woody Norman offers such an honest, realistic child perspective unlike any kid actor I’ve ever seen.
