The documentary about the legendary Toronto production of Godspell focuses on the brilliant cast of friends

Zach Cregger’s take on Resident Evil is more proof that affectionate parodies can make for the most faithful adaptations. (Very mild spoilers for the opening).

Buddy is 100% a “children’s show horror movie by the guy who made ‘Too Many Cooks’,” and I have to respect a movie that so relentlessly keeps “yes, and”ing itself. (spoilers)

The movie about dinosaurs in the suburbs is a period piece set during a time when I probably would’ve enjoyed this movie.

Jane Schoenbrun’s slasher has so much about it that I love, even if it is a little too meta, like New Nightmare from horror master Wes Craven

Much of Brand New Day feels like it was made specifically for lifelong fans of the comics, but it still works for those of us who weren’t. (No spoilers but caution advised)

The thing I like most about The Odyssey is what it shows us about interpretation, adaptation, and the whole idea of “a definitive version.” (Spoilers)

Toy Story 5 did all the right things but still didn’t resonate with me. But it has so many different kinds of horses!

Backrooms is like if you explained creepypasta to a production company that didn’t know what it was, and then asked them to make a movie of it

The not-quite blockbuster summer release isn’t what I’d expected, by going all in on Star Wars weirdness and being a celebration of the artists that have brought the movies and shows to the screen

The hilarious and brilliant movie from Boots Riley feels like everyone’s putting everything they’ve got into making something fun and inspirational.
