Housemaid

Feig’s ‘Housemaid’ (2025) should’ve cleaned up its script

March 14, 2026March 13, 2026 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: The director’s latest slick thriller boasts fun twists, but the plot and characterizations ultimately flee from plausibility.

Good Boy

We’re all wearing Milk-Bone underwear in ‘Good Boy’ (2025)

February 25, 2026February 25, 2026 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: The 73-minute horror film gives a dog’s view of life, and perhaps monsters.

‘Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man!’ celebrates a hilarious career

February 4, 2026February 4, 2026 John Hansen Mel Brooks

TV review: This nearly four-hour documentary somberly yet happily chronicles a resume defined as much by friends and kindness as by laughs.

January 28, 2026January 28, 2026 John Hansen Horror Movies

‘Predator: Badlands’ (2025) proves Disney and the Yautja can coexist

January 14, 2026January 14, 2026 John Hansen Aliens/Predator

Movie review: Dan Trachtenberg crafts such a fun buddy adventure out of the “Predator” fabric that the PG-13 approach can be forgiven.

‘Life of Chuck’ is a small story with big thoughts

December 29, 2025December 29, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Mike Flanagan takes a break from horror but sticks with Stephen King for a simple but engaging meditative piece.

Running Man 2025

Powell’s ‘Running Man’ takes a while to get up to speed

December 24, 2025December 24, 2025 John Hansen Movies

Movie review: Edgar Wright eventually delivers a slick actioner, but it has no chance of feeling as prescient as the 1987 version.

Read more
The Monkey

Self-cannibalizing ‘The Monkey’ is more dark than comedic

December 23, 2025December 23, 2025 John Hansen Horror Movies

Movie review: Osgood Perkins’ idiosyncratic brand of horror won’t connect with everyone, and I doubt he intends that it will.

Read more
It Welcome to Derry

‘It: Welcome to Derry’ expands from King’s work in King-y way

December 22, 2025December 23, 2025 John Hansen Horror TV

TV review: But there’s a reason why the author didn’t go this deep into the Pennywise mythology. It strains under its convolutions.

Predator Killer of Killers

Trachtenberg expands ‘Predator’ mythos in ‘Killer of Killers’

December 16, 2025December 16, 2025 John Hansen Aliens/Predator

Movie review: The violent saga goes the animated – but not kid-friendly – route in this triptych that cleverly combines the tales.
