One of the perks of a Disney Cruise with friends & family is the chance to see some family hits that have somehow escaped me. 2010's TANGLED is, by far, my favorite of the new era Disney animated classics. Disney's first CGI fairy tale film adaption, it features big laughs, physical comedy and real heart for kids and parents (and grandparents, hello!). This box office bonanza is a flawless example of how Disney got back to story basics after the box office disappointment of "The Princess and...

Director Luc Besson's new take on DRACULA is a big budget, sweeping horror spectacle that's far better than I expected it to be. It deserved a bigger audience in theaters. An interesting cast, beautiful photography and more than a subtle reverence for Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 take make this a surprisingly stunning film. Besson has, at his best, always been one of my favorite French filmmakers, with his films oozing his unique visual style. "The Fifth Element", "La Femme Nikita"and his...

Fallout (Season 2)

What happens in Vegas....is a non-stop barrage of crazy action, kick-ass creatures and wild locals to challenge our favorite folks wondering the wasteland.THIS is the way you deliver a Season Two of a massive hit! FALLOUT SEASON 2 deepens the mystery, ups the intrigue, action & world building into a laugh out loud, powerful second set of eight episodes. It's a tribute to showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner that they're able to pile on many more levels of storytelling on top...

If you love dark, dark comedy wedded to smart drama, accept your invitation today to THE DRAMA . An acting showcase for Zendaya and Robert Pattinson, the film is unlike anything I've seen on screen in some time. Writer/Director Kristoffer Borgoli is an original voice, serving up the type of comedic/dramatic meld I haven't seen since Woody Allen's brilliant 1989 film, "Crimes and Misdemeanors". Since that's nearly 40 years ago, it's safe to say the Borgoli is treading very new ground for a...

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

"Let's a-Go!" Bigger, faster and sure to be a Billion Dollar hit, THE SUPER MARIO GALAXY MOVIE is an enjoyable barrage of video game action and laughs for all ages. Funny enough to entertain my 12 year old grandson and not too scary for his 3 year old brother, this one is sure to pack in families this long Easter weekend. Building off the fun of the first film, this one plunges us into the action immediately. Princess Peach (Anya Taylor Joy) opens the film with some nice legend building...

Project Hail Mary

A feast for the eyes and the ears in Dolby Cinema, PROJECT HAIL MARY aims for the stars and beautifully blows past them by every measure. Adapting Andy Weir's best selling novel, Oscar winning Directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have created a science fiction film for the ages. If you're old enough (like me) to have seen "2001" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" on the big screen when they were released, get ready to have that same sense of wonder again in the theater. The last...
