Generally, I abhor the term "filler" when it comes to television. Even when an episode doesn't make too many strides in long-term plot development, I usually feel like I get something out of the experience—perhaps it fleshes out a cha...
We have one stylish 80's throwback, looking to be brutal in all the right ways, with the above trailer for VFW. The setup sees a group of Vietnam vets hanging at their local VFW bar celebrating a birthday when a girl storms inside with a b...
Jesse V. Johnson, the director of super good punch-em-ups like Avengement and Savage Dog, is back for another bloody actioner, this time lacking in Scott Adkins but retaining Dominique Vandenberg from Triple Threat. On what could be the sa...
Looking back at Wonder Woman two and a half years after its release, it still feels shocking that the movie not only was as good as it was, but it was received with overwhelming positivity. In only a few years, Wonder Woman re-emerged as a...
If anyone watching The Mandalorian had somehow missed that this show was a Western, here is an episode that is pretty blatant with all of the associated tropes. In what was basically The Magnificent Seven in space, Mando has become the "Man...
The official 007 Twitter account took to the keys last night to release a teaser for No Time to Die, the forthcoming latest entry in the titanic espionage franchise.
It has been hard to see most of the Star Wars stuff in the Disney era to be nothing more than homages to the original trilogy. With The Mandalorian, I feel as if fans are getting more of a remix across all Star Wars eras in a way we've neve...
So this is the kind of show The Mandalorian will be, eh? After an intriguing series premiere, the second episode of this Star Wars Disney+ original is more of a small step in terms of plot, one that doesn't move the story significantly forw...
Who doesn't love watching giant monsters beat the life out of each other? Thanks to the dozens of Godzilla movies produced over the years, we have a healthy supply of movies where a walking Atom Bomb metaphor fights giant moths and turtles....
Over the course of the newer Star Wars trilogy, many viewers have complained about lackluster dialogue and crappy jokes. While I'll admit that some of the lines in The Last Jedi were groan inducing, I haven't had a particular problem with a...
Pom Klementieff, made famous for her role as "Mantis" in the MCU films, has officially joined the cast of Mission: Impossible 7 and 8. The news was confirmed by a series of Tweets between her and M:I 7/8 director Christopher McQuarrie. Not...
Star Wars was never meant to be a giant pop culture phenomenon, nor was it envisioned as a prime example of the capitalist Hollywood nightmare we now live in. Yet despite the flaws and missteps of this gargantuan franchise, I've always beli...
Sometimes the merciless criticism of the internet can bring the world together under the banner of hating one terrible decision. Back in April that decision was the design for a film adaptation of everyone's favorite blue video game mascot...
Nicolas Cage is the gift that keeps on giving. After throwing himself into debt with some larger than life purchases, including buying a freaking castle, the man has been accepting any role tossed at him left and right in order to make all ...
Today's contest puts a Blu-ray copy of Hobbs & Shaw up for grabs! I think I watched the first three Fast & Furious movies, but lost track somewhere around Fast & Furious in Space 2. They've really made a lot of those m...
Bad Boys For Life has been in production for quite a while. They've gone through multiple scripts and directors before finally reaching the point where the film has wrapped and is actually coming out. What did all that time and effort go i...
In some strange way, the Terminator franchise mirrors how its titular robots are described: unstoppable. Despite every sequel past Terminator 2: Judgment Day being bad, the series just won't stop coming back. Writers have attempted to do ju...
Robert Bronzi, a man you might remember from a rip-off so blatant it's actually kind of endearing, is officially making a career of looking an awful lot like Charles Bronson. This just goes to prove that Hollywood really is all about the l...
Why should Marvel and DC have all the fun? From Sony Pictures and Hivemind Productions comes Bloodshot, the feature film adaptation of the Valiant Comics series about one very pale, very angry super-soldier.
Up and comer Samara Weaving (hot off of her performance in Ready or Not) will have a role in the G.I. Joe spin-off Snake Eyes. She'll be joining a cast that includes Henry Golding, Haruka Abe, Ursula Corbero, Iko Uwais, and Andrew Koji. Dir...
There are all sorts of ways to overcome an alcohol dependency--self-help books, therapy, Alcoholics Anonymous. One method covered much too rarely, however, is vigilante violence. Sometimes all you have to do is shoot a gangster with a flar...
Disney has just unveiled a new trailer for Jungle Cruise, a film adaptation of the "popular" ride from Walt Disney World. Combining elements from the attraction with a star-studded cast, I'm actually quite surprised at the result. This doe...
It may be time to put the phrase "visionary mind" in moratorium from film trailers. The latest Will Smith vehicle is Gemini Man, and its marketing suggest that it's one of those films that just could not be made without recent advancements ...
Following the emergence of Quentin Tarantino in the early '90s, audiences the world-round were at least tantalized by the fan-to-filmmaker's cocktail of pop culturally-savvy criminals and explosive violence. The Tarantino brand would evolve...
I don't think it'd be right to spoil the end of John Wick's latest outing in Parabellum; the bloodstains are just setting in, if you will. But needless to say... John's got his hands full. And we know a fourth film is underway. But if there...
The further we get from Castlevania's second season, the more I look back at just how much I enjoyed it. Pacing problems aside, with most of the main cast stuck in a library, the action and character development was solid and it brought a l...
Army of the Dead, Zack Snyder's Netflix zombie heist film is officially beginning its slow drip-feed of details as the film shuffles toward release. The first juicy chunk of information? A release window--slated for "next winter," acc...
When history's overtaken all of us, I think Takashi Miike's will be a name left standing. For one thing, the Japanese genre-master is capital-P prolific. 2017's Blade of the Immortal was touted as his 100th feature film, and since then he's...
A debut trailer has surfaced for Michael Bay's next film 6 Underground, to be released on Netflix this December. Featuring an all-star cast of beautiful people blowing things up across the globe, it should make for cozy holiday viewing.
Back in 2014, Kingsman: The Secret Service was a bigger hit than most people expected it to be. Featuring some modern spy action, a great villain, as well as a cast of characters that interacted in fun and organic ways, it was a pleasant s...
I imagine that having been the star of Face/Off makes it pretty impossible to be surprised by pitches for just about any action film ever, so of course Nicolas Cage has signed on for a movie in which he has to hunt an assassin on a ship fu...
Tangent time! One of my favorite episodes from The Simpsons has to be the second Treehouse of Horror special that aired back in the show's third season. I thought that the various segments all had some horrific charm to them, the framing de...
I believe I would be hard pressed to find someone who disagrees with me that John Rambo is a character of a certain time. What started as a great look at the horrors that lingered in soldiers returning from Vietnam quickly turned into a mac...
Sometimes you want to watch a dark horror where a creature of unspeakable terror stalks its prey in the middle of the night. Sometimes you want to watch a couple fall in love and survive against all adversity. Sometimes you want to watch a ...
Actress Hayley Atwell, most famous from her role as Peggy Carter in various Marvel films, will be joining the cast of the upcoming Mission Impossible 7 and 8. In new reports from The Hollywood Reporter, Variety, and her own Instagram accoun...
I always knew this day would come. According to a report from Deadline, John Woo's infamous 1997 Nicolas Cage/John Travolta action thriller cult classic Face/Off will get a reboot. No matter what happens, this film will be some combination ...
In this contest, you can win Men in Black: International on Blu-ray, as well as a matching poster from Mondo! Physical prizes, ho! Giving away actual, tangible objects is one of my favorite things, so today I've got a double dose ...
Ever feel like you're stuck in a time loop? That's pretty much where I was at watching this new trailer for Terminator: Dark Fate. It's certainly better than that first trailer with the gosh darn Bjork cover, but I can't shake the feeling ...
I am a not-so-proud Michael Bay fan. Or, to be more precise, I am a fan of Michael Bay when he isn't direction Transformers movies he clearly doesn't care about. The man use to be able to direct action, he's actually got a pretty good ...
Somebody hold me up because I can't handle this much sexy all in one 30-second clip. The James Bond folks have revealed the title for the next Bond film as No Time to Die, and it is amazing. We'll get to that video above first, but lets ju...
