Logan

Logan defies expectations. When a regular, Saturday matinee audience sits down to this, popcorn in hand, I imagine that they will come away from this somber, elegiac superhero movie with some disappointment, to say the least. There are no fist-pumping moments of cheer and no sweeping orchestral score to telegraph the emotional beats. For years, comic book fans have...

The Space Between Us

Young Gardner Elliot (Butterfield) was born on Mars by accident. In the sort of eyebrow-raising coincidences soap operas typically trade on, the circumstances of his conception mean he can’t come back to Earth (his body couldn’t take it) after his mission commander mother (Montgomery) dies giving birth to him. Growing up with no other children or normal society, just...

Fifty Shades Darker

In theory a story does not have to be about its story, if that makes sense. It doesn’t have to be about its plot or its characters or any relevant themes or anything else we might recognize as being ‘a story.’ There have been plenty of experimental works which have done away with all of that, like shucking off a dress at the end of the night and prancing about naked,...

Spider-Man Will Return In Avengers: Infinity War

Spider-Man is back in a big way. After Sony's failed Amazing Spider-Man reboot, Marvel was able to cut a deal to have the webslinger be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Tom Holland debuted as Spidey in Captain America: Civil War last summer and even though he was only technically in two scenes, the results were very convincing. Now it looks like we are going...

X-Men Spin-Off Gambit Is Still Happening with Channing Tatum

Hidden Figures

In the early ’60s, NASA used “colored computers”—i.e., African-American female mathematicians—to check the work of its white male engineers at the Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA. These “hidden figures” were instrumental in getting the Mercury program (literally) off the ground, at a time when the U.S. was engaged in a fierce space race against the Soviets....

Monster Trucks

The Onion made a video a few years back depicting a mock morning-show interview with “the screenwriter for the latest Fast and the Furious movie,” a five-year-old boy who threw his Hot Wheels in the air and hollered:  I want the cars to go fast!” That same hyperactive spirit must have been behind the elevator pitch for Monster Trucks: Kids like monsters, kids...
