My quick rating - 6.5/10. The setting is New England in the 1630s. William ( Ralph Ineson ) and Katherine ( Kate Dickie ) lead a devout Christian life with five children, homesteading on the edge of an impassable wilderness. When their newborn son vanishes, and crops fail, the family turns on one another. Beyond their worst fears, a supernatural evil lurks in the nearby wood. A great looking and sounding movie that plays at the mind more for the horror aspect than it does w

My quick rating - 6.5/10. I am a big fan of hers and pretty much always have been, but this isn't one of her best shows. It isn't awful by any means, but she has done much better. Then again, it has been a decade since her last comedy special, so maybe out of practice? It is her typical borderline raunchy at times, but not all-out profane, touching upon Nazis, "alleged" groups that molest children, and her ever-questioned sexuality. Basically, the usual type of conversation

My quick rating - 3.7/10. "When ADT goes wrong? No idea on how good this one is, but only one way to find out." These words perfectly capture the anticipation and curiosity surrounding "Motion Detected," a film that explores the dark side of smart home security systems. While the concept holds promise, the execution falls short, resulting in my disappointing viewing experience. The story revolves around a recent victim of a terrifying home invasion who decides to move to what

My quick rating - 7.5/10. The Irreverent Comedian's life utilizes a vast archive including never-before-seen personal materials and featuring O'Neal's family and friends. I did think I was checking out a standup, but I really didn't know much about Patrice O'Neal, to be honest. But this was a very well-made look at the comedian with dozens of clips from a wide assortment of stars. It was the night's escape from the stupidest friggin' show on Aussie TV...I'm a Celebrity, Get M

My quick rating - 5.2/10. Well, this is a slow burner, taking us on a tense and introspective ride that is set in a war-torn Earth in the future. This thriller is directed by upcoming filmmaker Tanel Toom , who delves into the psychological effects of war on some soldiers who are placed at Sentinel, which is a far-off military base that is located in the middle of a massive body of water that forms a boundary between the two warring continents. It starts with four tired soldi

My quick rating - 4.1/10. While recovering from an abusive relationship, Joy joins her friend's therapy group on an isolated mountainous retreat. Led by a doctor with experimental methods, the group is soon forced to confront a monstrous entity. I wouldn't have minded this one as much, but it took way too long to get going. The lead-up encompassed a ton of character building, which half the characters I couldn't have cared less about. But this is one of those movies where

My quick rating - 6.0/10. She definitely brings a unique perspective to the stage, being a native of India. Most of the highlights here involve direct comparisons to living in the USA versus how life was for her growing up. As an unapologetic, Indian-Immigrant mom, she has plenty to joke about, and the punch lines come fast and furious. A good background while I was working, since this never requires watching to get the full effect, minus her jokes about the " bindi ." It is

My quick rating - 3.4/10. “Marry Fuck Kill” tries to get the elements of a psychological thriller with those of a demonic possession thriller, but it falls flat in actually conveying a good storyline. While the premise of the movie is interesting enough—it starts with an innocent game that takes a dark turn—I feel that it does not use this premise to its advantage. The plot revolves around five friends meeting for their friend’s funeral, who took her own life in a surprisingl
