Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem Review 

Pixar elevated the animation industry with CGI which delivered polished and clean imagery, but films like Academy Award-winning film SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE, its sequel ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE, and now TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM return to basics with raw and hand drawn-looking artwork. The style is fitting for the cinematic adaptation of these comic book heroes who are endearing and hilarious.

This Fool 2023 Hulu series season 2

Those fools from the hood are back in season 2 of the extremely funny Hulu series,  This Fool.  The irreverent comedy starring Chris Estrada, Frankie Quinones, and Michael Imperioli, perfectly captures life in South Central. The quirky characters decide to open up a new coffee shop, "Mugs Not Thugs" and of course, there are shenanigans that will have you rolling on the floor although the laughs are not as consistent as last season.

Simu Liu, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in Barbie movie review

As expected, Greta Gerwig’s (LADYBIRD) live-action BARBIE movie is filled with subversive feminist messaging but Gerwig balances the truth bombs with comedy.  Margot Robbie is a perfect Barbie and Ryan Gosling steals the show with his himbo Ken-energy. Gerwig also manages to honor the Mattel icon without belittling the brand and empowers little girls to want more than just tea parties.

Tom Cruise and Simon Pegg in Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One movie review

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE fans will get their money’s worth in the seventh outing of Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise) spy adventure in DEAD RECKONING PART ONE, even with a familiar story that hits the same beats from one movie to the next, and a questionable villain. However, this is possibly the funniest installment of the franchise.

 Cobie Smulders and Samuel L Jackson in Secret Invastion on Disney Plus

Secret Invasion closely resembles Star Wars: Andor series. Both Disney+ series are slow-burn spy thrillers with character-driven plots, and devoid of Jedis and Avengers to save the day. Marvel’s latest entry, however, is not as sleek looking like Andor, and the pacing is far more tedious. Two episodes in, it’s not clear yet if the Marvel series is worthy of a binge.

Harrison Ford and Phoebe Waller Bridge movie review

Cannes critics lambasted INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY as too nostalgic in early reviews. Isn’t nostalgia one of the reasons we return to movie theaters to watch fan favorites like Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones? INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY is exactly what you expect from the fedora-wearing treasure hunter, but more emotional.

Kevin Harrison Jr. is one of the most underrated actors of this generation, and his starring turn in the untold story of the first Black composer in CHEVALIER proves his worth.
