DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS | ©2022 Marvel

Rating: PG-13 Stars: Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Xochitl Gomez, Benedict Wong, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor Writer: Michael Waldron, based on the Marvel Comics Director: Sam Raimi Distributor: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Release Date: May 6, 2022 DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS has a slightly misleading title. We certainly have Doctor Stephen Strange, the powerful sorcerer portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch. He is most definitely running through the multiverse (that’s multiple universes, for latecomers to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, aka the MCU). But while we see quite a few of the multiverses in flashes, and spend more time in […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Jake Gyllenhaal, Forest Whitaker, Rachel McAdams, Oona Laurence, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Naomie Harris, Miguel Gomez Writer: Kurt Sutter Director: Antoine Fuqua Distributor: The Weinstein Co. Release Date: July 24, 2015 SOUTHPAW has one big plot twist the unspoiled may not see coming. Otherwise, even though it’s scripted by SONS OF ANARCHY creator Kurt Sutter, this boxing drama is solid but standard fare. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as boxing champ Billy Hope, whose victories are fueled by rage. However, when he’s outside the ring, his life revolves around beloved wife Mo (Rachel McAdams) and precocious daughter Leila (Oona […]Read On »

If you want to use her, great, just say she grew […]Read On »

ABOUT TIME movie poster | ©2013 Universal Pictures

Rating: R Stars: Domhnall Gleeson, Rachel McAdams, Bill Nighy, Lydia Wilson, Lindsay Duncan, Tom Hollander Writer: Richard Curtis Director: Richard Curtis Distributor: Universal Release Date: November 1, 2013 There are moments – long stretches, even – when ABOUT TIME seems as though it’s perhaps too pleasant for its own good. It’s always agreeable and amusing – except when for its effective moments of melancholy and there are the trials and travails of dealing with life and love and time travel, but mostly, it’s a movie that urges us to live as though every day is worth experiencing twice, which is […]Read On »
