Rating: PG-13 Stars: Miles Teller, Anya Taylor-Joy, Sigourney Weaver, Sope Dirisu, William Houston Writer: Zach Dean Director: Scott Derrickson Distributor: Apple TV+ Release Date: February 14, 2025 THE GORGE has something for everyone, especially monster lovers. We get espionage, romance, sharpshooters, mysteries that mostly have logical answers, and eventually, lots of different kinds of homicidal creatures. Levi (Miles Teller) is a former U.S. government assassin, now retired, who is called back to service by his old colleague Bartholomew (Sigourney Weaver). Bartholomew reaches out to Levi because this is a top-secret year-long job that will have (supposedly) no human contact, and […]Read On »

It’s not for the squeamish – besides two late-in-the-running but super-gory visuals, it deals overall with crimes against two little girls, one thirty years ago and one in the present. We do not see these assaults, but the mere idea of them may put […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Isaac Krasner, Dora Madison, David Johnson III, Taj Cross, Emily Deschanel, Marion Van Cuyck, Emma Broz, Jack De Sanz Writer: Corey Sherman Director: Corey Sherman Distributor: Dark Star Pictures Release Date: February 14, 2025 (streaming/digital) Written and directed by Corey Sherman, BIG BOYS skillfully, sensitively and humorously depicts the kind of life-changing event that sometimes even best friends may never discuss. This isn’t because of embarrassment, but because it’s so hard to put into words. We’re in Southern California. Fourteen-year-old Jamie (Isaac Krasner) is smart but socially awkward (and a bit of a hypochondriac). His slightly […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Blu Hunt, Ben Smith-Petersen, John Karna, Katherine Hughes, Joey Millin, Brennan Mejia, Aerial Washington Writers: Webb Wilcoxen and Elric Kane Director: Elric Kane Distributor: Shudder Release Date: February 14, 2025 With a title like THE DEAD THING, we’re primed for one to show up eventually. In fact, we may be primed for something a lot scarier than what we get here. This DEAD THING turns out to be a lot more tense when it mimics reality than when it reaches into the supernatural. We are in Los Angeles, both downtown and in an adjoining pleasantly hipster […]Read On »

Simultaneously and miraculously, HEART EYES manages to faithfully replicate the look and feel of more sober offerings, […]Read On »
