Synopsis – After the devastating events of Avengers: Infinity War (2018), the universe is in ruins. With the help of remaining allies, the Avengers assemble once more in order to undo Thanos’ actions and restore order to the universe. My Take – This one is undoubtedly the biggest film of the year.

Josh Trank, the director of Fantastic Four, has confirmed a 2019 release date for his new film Fonzo – an Al Capone biopic starring Tom Hardy.

Josh Trank got a bum rap. I’m certainly not the only person to hold this opinion but when Trank was essentially blacklisted and lost his potential Star Wars gig, most of the blame went to the director. And while it’s pretty clear that Trank reacted with a hard-to-excuse volatility, it’s frankly impossible to excuse the fact that the seed of the problem was a potent … Continue reading ‘Chronicle’ Director Josh Trank’s ‘Fonzo’ Starts Filming Next Month!!!

Oh Bloodline. Season 1 was such a fantastic binge watch because of its murderous framing device. Season 2 then abandoned having that flash-forward setup and also lost its most compelling character, so it languished as the leads worried about the cover-up to their dark deeds. The finale of that season also added another dark deed, one that pretty much solidifies the Rayburns as bad people, even … Continue reading ‘Bloodline’ Season 3 Trailer and First Images Tease the Rayburns’ Fall!!!

Synopsis – The story of Ray Kroc, a salesman who turned two brothers’ fast food eatery, McDonald’s, into one of the biggest restaurant businesses in the world.

It’s a rare move for Netflix to cancel its original series. So far, only Lilyhammer and Hemlock Grove have met early ends, but since Netflix also notoriously does not share its viewer numbers, we have no idea how successful any of its series are, or by what metric they make the decision to keep things going (at the moment, Netflix has almost 30 original series, and is only continuing … Continue reading ‘Bloodline’ Will End with Season 3 on Netflix!!
It is both with relief and trepidation that I am able to report Netflix is renewing its Florida Keys-set drama Bloodline for a third season. While I unabashedly loved the first season, Season 2 was mostly treading water, and lost its drive as it examined the emotions of the Rayburn siblings following the emotional turmoil of Season 1’s actions. And while Bloodline is at its best when it’s focused … Continue reading Netflix Renews Its Florida Keys Drama ‘Bloodline’ for Season 3!!
If you’re wondering why anyone would bother with a Daddy’s Home sequel, then you’ll probably be surprised to learn that the film brought in $240 million worldwide. That’s a tidy profit for Paramount for a film that probably didn’t cost too much to make, so it’s not surprising that they’re seizing on making a sequel. Deadline reports that Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are set … Continue reading ‘Daddy’s Home’ Sequel Sets Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg to Return!!

This film, like just about all Ferrell vehicles, goes too far … Continue reading Daddy’s Home (2016) Review!!!
