Movie review: Thatcher is great in a darkly winking thriller about budding mistrust at a lake retreat. After the spoiler warning, I share thoughts on the marketing.
Wilder Wednesday (Movie review): Wilder shows “Some Like It Hot” was no fluke by delivering this exhausting but clever romp.
First episode impressions (TV review): But Owen Wilson and Marc Maron help raise the sometimes subpar writing.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): Among Nineties slacker classics, this coming-of-ager is relatively tame and flat through today’s lens.
Wilder Wednesday (Movie review): Sure, there’s Lemmon and Matthau, but in this case I’m referring to the writing team of Wilder and Diamond.
‘TMNT’ flashback (TV review): David Wise delivers standouts “Night of the Dark Turtle,” “The Legend of Koji” and “Shredder Triumphant!,” plus fan favorite “Night of the Rogues.”
Wilder Wednesday (Movie review): Writer Wilder would continue with this blend of comedy, romance and geo-politics/economics when he became a director.
Throwback Thursday (Movie review): Though more comedic than others of its ilk, Ron Howard’s film gets the biz right.
Wilder Wednesday (Movie review): This is another example of Wilder’s ability to balance tones, as he delivers a dark history lesson without traumatizing us.
On a Hitchcock kick (Movie review): Although Sean O’Casey’s play is well-regarded, Hitchcock’s adaptation is rightly cited by many as his worst film.
