Movie Reviews

As remakes go, this is thoroughly entertaining, whether you're a newcomer to the story or a die-hard fan of the original

Rocketman is a hugely entertaining musical biopic that pushes all the right buttons

Defying expectations, a decades-long curse is finally shattered as Detective Pikachu brings Pokemon to Western shores in a way both humorous and respectful

The capstone of an 11-year undertaking excels in almost every regard, as the Infinity Saga reaches a climactic conclusion that is certain to satisfy fans old and new

Eighth Grade is a superbly written, brilliantly directed and sublimely acted coming-of-age film
