“Spider-Man: Brand New Day”clocks in at 2 hours 25 minutes, and you start to feel it a little bit. But like with Spider-Man movies in general, this was an enjoyable film. I didn’t feel much superhero fatigue, but there was some there. The bad guy in this film was reminiscent of the Denzel Washington film…

“The Invite” (2026) is directed and stars Olivia Wilde. Edward Norton, Penelope Cruz, and Seth rogen also star. Billed as a comedy, I’ll be damned if this was not written as a play in a previous life. It has all of the trappings and gimmicks of being a play, right down to the essay format.…

It was a little bit odd to have lex luthor back seat quarterbacking by calling out predetermined a tax sequences with quasi chess move alphanumeric…

Conclave was an enjoyable film. The usual amount of political intrigue, with an unexpected twist at the end. Ralph Fiennes gave a good performance, as did Stanley Tucci who is again type cast as a bureaucrat. John Lithgow was made to look like Donald rumsfeld, which must have been on purpose given several other references…
