WHY “SAVING MR. BANKS” IS ONE OF DISNEY’S MOST EMOTIONAL AND UNDERRATED FILMS
Some films grab your attention from the first frame, and others quietly sneak into your heart Saving Mr. Banks does both. It’s one of those rare gems that feels comforting and heartbreaking all at once. Every time I watch it, I end up crying not because it’s tragic, but because it’s so beautifully human. It reminds…
THE TERMINATOR MAKES A SPECULATOR RETURN TO THE BIG SCREEN
“I’ll Be Back.” When Arnold Schwarzenegger first uttered those now-iconic words, “I’ll be back,” the audience at London’s Eventim Apollo erupted into spontaneous applause and cheers of delight. For one night only on Sunday, James Cameron’s legendary sci-fi classic The Terminator returned to the big screen this time with a live orchestra performing the powerful score. The effect was electrifying. A massive drum, struck…
“PARK AVENUE” REVIEW: KATHERINE WATERSON AND FIONA SHAW SHINES IN GABY DELLAL’S LOVE LETTER TO NEW YORK
Gaby Dellal’s Park Avenue is a love letter to New York and my god, she’s written it beautifully. The city hums through every frame, not just as a setting but as a heartbeat. Dellal, drawing inspiration from her own relationship with her mother, crafts a film that feels deeply personal yet universally resonant tender, stylish, and quietly…
Selling Sunset Season 9: Glamour, Grit, and the Gossip That Never Ends
Selling Sunset Season 9 proves the drama at the Oppenheim Group is as shiny and relentless as ever. You’ve still got the jaw-dropping real estate, the glossy open houses, and agents who seem to sell gossip as much as they sell houses. It’s high heels, high drama, and high-end listings all the way. The season picks…
NOBODY WANTS THIS SEASON 2: PROOF THAT NOT EVERY SHOW NEEDS A SEQUEL
When I heard Nobody Wants This was getting a second season, I wasn’t convinced it needed one and after watching, I’m still not. It feels like the show’s trying to recapture the spark of season one but forgot to bring the story with it. Nothing really happens this time around, and what does happen feels forced. Joanne…
“REGRETTING YOU”: NO REGRETS ABOUT BEING INVITED TO THE MEDIA SCREENING
Regretting You is Paramount’s new romance drama based on the 2019 novel by Colleen Hoover the same author behind It Ends with Us, which made a ton of money despite the whole Blake Lively controversy. Thankfully, there’s no drama (yet) with this production… but hey, there’s still time for the “Colleen Curse” to show up. The film…
FROM SCHOOL OF ROCK TO NOUVELLE VAGUE: WHY I CAN’T WAIT TO MEET RICHARD LINKLATER AT LFF
There are few filmmakers who’ve ever made me want to start a band, quit school, and maybe make a film about it afterwards. Richard Linklater is one of them. This Saturday, I’ll be on the London Film Festival red carpet to meet the man himself the director who gave us School of Rock, Before Sunrise, and Boyhood now returning with something completely different: his…
“ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER”: MY FIRST PAUL THOMAS ANDERSON EXPERIENCE (PLEASE DON’T COME FOR ME)”
I have never seen a Paul Thomas Anderson movie before, so this is my first one. Don’t come for me. That said, I can now understand why people love his films. One Battle After Another is bold, chaotic, and strangely magnetic a film that feels both messy and meaningful at the same time. It’s very manly in…
SEAN “DIDDY” COMBS PRISON SENTENCE: 4 YEARS, REGRET LETTERS, AND MY UNFILTERED TAKE
Yesterday afternoon, Sean Combs was sentenced to four years in prison. But let’s be honest he’ll probably end up serving about two years with “good behaviour and credit.” At the start of the day, the judge said he was going to consider everything even the things Diddy had been acquitted for. He also mentioned that he…
