Viggo Mortensen stars, direct and writes Western film, The Dead Don't Hurt

Viggo Mortensen takes the romance out of the Wild West in his sophomoric directorial effort, THE DEAD DON’T HURT. Westerns typically feature men as heroes or outlaws, and women are relegated to prostitutes or wives. Mortensen presents a different point of view from an independent woman's perspective (Vicky Krieps) and also the immigrant experience.

Froy Gutierrez and Madelaine Petsch in The Strangers Chapter1 

If the plot of THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 1 seems familiar, it is. Based on the 2008 film by writer/director Bryan Bertino, this new reiteration is the third in the horror franchise. This new iteration doesn't offer much in reinventing the horror franchise, and two more are planned for a trilogy.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes movie review 

The PLANET OF THE APES prequels were a rare instance, in which all the films in the trilogy were excellent. KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES director West Ball had a big task ahead of him. The MAZE RUNNER filmmaker found a way to shake up the mythology and steer it in a unique direction for the next installments.

 Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire image

GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE is campy as hell in the vein of the Japanese classics, SON OF GODZILLA (1967) and DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (1968). True Godzilla fans will enjoy the heck out of this movie, while others may not understand the shift in tone from the previous Hollywood movies.
