As their expansive year-long Disney 100 celebration finally begins to wind down, Walt Disney Animation Studios is set to deliver their 62nd feature-length animated feature almost nine decades after Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs began one of the most enduring legacies in the history of cinema. Standing as a loving tribute to everything that makes Disney animation so uniquely magical, Wish is a beautiful gem. A wondrous throwback to classic animated musicals of the past, this is easily the best family film of the season. Through the use of that...

Not to name names, but the pressure to deliver an equally impressive sophomore film after an acclaimed directorial debut normally cripples most filmmakers. After Emerald Fennell burst onto the scene in 2020 with the breathtaking Promising Young Woman and waltzed away with a richly deserved Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, all eyes turned to what the writer/director would serve up next. With the deliciously twisted, wildly provocative, and gloriously diabolical. Saltburn, Fennell bucks the trend to offer something as equally stunning and thought-provoking as her first work. Refreshing, naughty,...

Despite only four years passing since her first big-screen adventure and her presence in the behemoths that were Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, it somehow feels like an eternity since we last saw Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel. Perhaps that's a testament to just how much Marvel Studios content we've consumed in that time. After battling against online trolls and "review bombing," 2019's Captain Marvel stormed to $1.1 billion at the worldwide box office and it seemed a new leader of the MCU had emerged. Rather than immediately throwing...

We are forever blessed that Martin Scorsese is still cranking out a new film every three or four years to remind us why he is a true auteur director. But to craft something at the age of 80 that stands as one of his greatest works to date is rather astonishing. Given his stunning back catalogue, that's a big call to make. Yet, it's entirely apt of a masterpiece so breathtakingly crafted as Killers of the Flower Moon; a perfectly paced epic that's everything cinema should be. Ambitious...

A long overdue biopic finally arrives in the form of Rustin, the story of the brilliant and often overlooked architect of the 1963 March on Washington. The film aims to shed light on Rustin's significant contributions to the Civil Rights Movement while exploring his complex identity as a Black gay man in mid-20th century America. While the film has its flaws, Colman Domingo’s powerhouse performance as the titular figure stands out as the film’s most compelling aspect and one destined for an Oscar nomination. Colman Domingo’s portrayal of Bayard...

A quietly devastating film that delves into the complexities of human relationships and the lingering effects of trauma, Memory is a poignant portrait of love, loss, and redemption. With its haunting narrative, powerful performances, and exquisite cinematography, the film invites viewers to embark on a journey of emotional discovery, exploring heavy themes with a delicate and sensitive touch. The story centres on Sylvia (a typically terrific Jessica Chastain), a woman grappling with the shadows of her past while trying to find a semblance of peace in her present life. Chastain’s performance...

Given we were all mostly staying home in early 2021 amidst pandemic paranoia, you likely heard something about the shocking rapid increase in the stock price of struggling American video game retailer GameStop. Maybe you were even intrigued enough to pay attention to how it was fueled by a bunch of Reddit users who blindsided seasoned Wall Street professionals and got rich in the process. Maybe you were even one of them. Barely two years later and it's already time for a Hollywood adaptation of this bizarre true story....

A slick, smart, and hugely entertaining entry into the crime-comedy genre, Hit Man deftly demonstrates Richard Linklater's unique ability to blend humour, tension, and deep character studies into a thoroughly enjoyable film.
