Movie Review: Avengers: Infinity War
Avengers: Infinity War is fun and thrillingly zips through its 156-minute running time and features an ending that shows the MCU can still deliver the audience high stakes indeed. The bigger fan of the MCU you are, the more enjoyment you will take from Avengers: Infinity War, but even mild fans will enjoy the sheer scope of the film.
Movie Review: Captain America: Civil War
The 2016 summer movie season officially kicks off this year with Captain America: Civil War. When we last left Steve Rogers in Captain America: Winter Soldier (2014) he had disrupted the entire espionage world, and saved millions of lives by the way, by foiling the plot of Hydra to take over S.H.I.E.L.D. from within. Also, his oldest frenemy, Bucky/Winter Soldier, had saved his life after their fi...[Read More]

Movie Review: Avengers: Age of Ultron
The 2015 summer movie season officially kicks off with Avengers: Age of Ultron. Needless to say that the bar has been set pretty damn high here. The prior installment, The Avengers (2012), was a well-received film that also had the third highest gross in history with $1.5 billion in ticket sales. That doesn’t even count all the merchandise the film sold. When critics and fans like your work, then ...[Read More]

Movie Review: The Judge
The Judge is a film that is all about the pain and joy of family – mostly pain. Sure it is also about a prominent local judge in a small town who is accused of murder as well. It is also about how a hot-shot, big city lawyer rides into town to defend the judge (who also happened to be the lawyer’s father) in a backwater district. Mostly though, this film is about family; reconnecting and acceptanc...[Read More]
Movie Review: Chef
I’m a bit ashamed to admit it, but my biggest blind spot as a cinephile is that I don’t pay a lot of attention to the world of independent film. It is a very rare event that I know about an indie film before a trailer has even been released. Such was the case with Chef, the new culinary comedy from actor/director/writer Jon Favreau. While it’s not breaking new ground in the world...[Read More]

In the meantime, this week’s edition of Trailer Trashin’ steps away from the big summer movies a...[Read More]
