It’s a good time to be a horror fan, with new and creative ideas being regularly introduced through the genre, and the best part is we don’t even have to wait until Halloween to get great ones. We’ve already seen a couple of spooky options hit the 2024 movie schedule, and up next we have Imaginary (not to be confused with John Krasinski’s IF — another movie about imaginary friends) from Blumhouse Productions. Critics have seen Imaginary, and most of them say they were left wanting when it came to the scares.Jeff Wadlow…

Warning: SPOILERS for Anyone But You are ahead!After Hollywood had all but written off box office romantic comedies, Anyone But You broke through the noise and became a surprising success. The Rated R rom-com was such a hit for Sony Pictures that it even got an extended theatrical run in celebration of Valentine’s Day. While I didn’t get a chance to see it on the big screen, I did just shell out the $6 to rent it on VOD, and it was totally worth it. So, worth it, in fact, that I think every romantic comedy that comes out…

Florence Pugh has been busy as of late. While basking in the awards season success of Oppenheimer, Pugh started promoting her next flick, Dune: Part Two, which is already being acclaimed by critics. It seems like there's no stopping the Little Women actress, who is turning out project after project. While there’s a lot for fans to be excited about, many are highly anticipating the release of her upcoming romance film with Andrew Garfield, We Live In Time. Now, Pugh is finally offering an update about the buzzy new movie…

Although Godzilla vs. Kong started off with the two titular Titans coming to blows, by the end of the fourth MonsterVerse movie, they later joined forces to battle a common enemy, Mechagodzilla. For Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, one of the major tentpole releases on the 2024 movies schedule, these gigantic beasts will team up once again, though that’s not to say they’re now on great terms with one another. In fact, their begrudging alliance was inspired by a classic buddy cop movie, and now I’m even more pumped for…

Peter Farrelly's new comedy focuses on a washed-up stripper who gets the role of a lifetime Twenty-five years ago, three friends — played by Zac Efron, Andrew Santino, and Jermaine Fowler — invented an imaginary friend with the unbelievable name Ricky Stanicky to “visit” whenever they wanted to hang out. Now as grownups, that lie has caught up with them since their family members are demanding to meet the man who was their alibi on a trip to Atlantic City. So what do they do? In Peter Farrelly’s new…

On an unnamed island in the Caribbean, a cartel boss named Manuel (Edoardo Costa) kills bartender Akeem (Tristan Duncan) merely because he spills a drink on Nora (Cami Storm), a young singer Manuel was planning to lock up in his villa and force to sing only for himself, like a canary. The murder is not only grisly and bad management practice, but also consequential because it brings down the wrath of Akeem’s brother Mark (action movie star Michael Jai White, from Mortal Kombat and Black Dynamite), an LA policeman. It…

You know the Netflix formula: take a reliable box office trope – the big-budget action movie, the international spy thriller, the hitman and car chase bonanza – repackage it for the laptop screen with evermore disposable wrapping, attach a big name star with a hefty paycheck, release, move on. Such results – Sweet Girl, the Adam Project, the Gray Man, just to name a few – are often widely viewed yet under-discussed, throwaway blockbusters in the house style (overlit, frenetic) without much staying power or distinguishable…

Even if the name Ke Huy Quan didn’t ring a bell for you until a few years ago, you were familiar with his work if you’d seen movies like The Goonies, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Encino Man. That said, Quan made his grand return to acting in 2022 playing Wayne Wang in Everything Everywhere All at Once, and that was followed by his time as O.B. in Loki Season 2. Now it’s been revealed he’s landed his next movie, and I’m excited to see it’ll be an action outing.Quan has boarded the Universal Pictures feature…

This has been a big year when it comes to animated films.

The year may almost be done, but there are still a number of other flicks that are just taking flight. The newest is Migration, which is the latest production that hails from industry giant Illumination. Critics have now seen this big-screen offering and, as a result, they're sharing…
