UNBREAKABLE KIMMY SCHMIDT is living up to its title. First, Netflix picked up the comedy, created by Tina Fey & Robert Carlock, after NBC passed on the pilot. The series, about cult survivor Kimmy Schmidt (Ellie Kemper) thriving in New York City, ran on Netflix for four seasons, 2015 through 2019. Now UNBREAKABLE KIMMY SCHMIDT is back with a new installment on Netflix, a choose-your-own-adventure interactive branching movie, UNBREAKABLE KIMMY SCHMIDT: KIMMY VS THE REVEREND.

FOLLOWED movie poster | ©2020 Global View Entertainment

Rating: R Stars: Matthew Solomon, Sam Valentine, Tim Drier, Caitlin Grace, Kelsey Griswold, John Savage Writer: Todd Klick Director: Antoine Le Distributor: Global View Entertainment Release Date: June 19, 2020 (release expands June 26, 2020) FOLLOWED is a better-than-average found-footage horror movie. What elevates FOLLOWED among its fellows? For one thing, it’s got a plot, which immediately helps. For another, it’s got characters who have understandable motivations. For a third, it’s got good, creepy mythology to go with its suitably ominous setting. However, those who cannot abide the found-footage subgenre should take heed at the outset. Michael (Matthew Solomon), who […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Nicole Beharie, Kendrick Sampson, Alexis Chikaeze, Lori Hayes, Akron Watson Writer: Channing Godfrey Peoples Director: Channing Godfrey Peoples Distributor: Vertical Entertainment Release Date: June 19, 2020  MISS JUNETEENTH is a slow-building but consistently engaging character study of a mother and daughter. Nicole Beharie carries the film with her expressive performance as one-time pageant winner Turquoise Jones, and gets a strong assist from Alexis Chiaeze as Turquoise’s teen daughter Kai. Juneteenth is a holiday in black American culture that commemorates June 19, 1865, when it was announced in Texas – two years after the Emancipation Proclamation – […]Read On »

YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT movie poster | ©2020 Universal Pictures

Rating: R Stars: Kevin Bacon, Amanda Seyfried, Avery Essex, Colin Bluemenau Writer: David Koepp, based on the novella by Daniel Kehlmann Director: David Koepp Distributor: Universal Pictures Release Date: June 19, 2020 YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT borrows from several other iconic horror books-into-film adaptations. They won’t be named here, as that would give the game away, and most viewers will make those associations for themselves. Still, it’s a nicely creepy haunted-house story that mostly strikes a balance between serving its premise and not belaboring it, though the climax leaves something to be desired. Theo Conroy (Kevin Bacon) would seem to […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Richard Speight Jr., Casey Dillard Writer: Casey Dillard Director: Glenn Payne Distributor: Uncork’d Entertainment Release Date: June 16, 2020  The new movie DRIVEN, being released on June 16, 2020, should not be confused with the 2018 Jason Sudeikis/Lee Pace starrer of the same name about John DeLorean, or the other 2018 DRIVEN, about an out-of-control race car driver who falls in love, or the other race car driver movie, also called DRIVEN, that starred Sylvester Stallone and was released in 2001, or the DRIVEN TV series from 2018, or … In other words, somebody should probably […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Pete Davidson, Marisa Tomei, Bel Powley, Bill Burr, Maude Apatow Writers: Judd Apatow & Pete Davidson & Dave Sirus Director: Judd Apatow Distributor: Universal Pictures Release Date: June 12, 2020 THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND is so targeted at a specific audience that it may be unfair for anybody who’s not in that demographic to review it. The movie is dedicated to star/co-writer’s Pete Davidson’s father, the late firefighter Scott Davidson, and it’s impossible not to respect the sincerity of the tribute. THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND has Davidson playing Scott Carlin, who at age twenty-four, is […]Read On »
