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.

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,...

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...

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.

After delivering three films in a row that all garnered endless praise and awards season success, it's clear director Damien Chazelle has reached the point in his career where he's being given carte blanche to make whatever the hell he wants. And rightly so. But that freedom proves to be both a blessing and a curse with his latest film Babylon; an overstuffed, 3-hour-plus epic that's equally dazzling, dizzying, disgusting, and discombobulating. Whether Chazelle falls under the weight of his own excess and ambition will be up for you...
