Kenneth Branagh’s wonderful little slice of life, drawn from the writer/director’s own childhood during The Troubles in Northern Ireland in the last 1960s, is a lock for my Best Movies Of 2021 list. Read my review here.

My review of a new documentary chronicling a road trip by comedians Bobcat Goldthwait and Dana Gould as they tour and perform together while reminiscing about their oddly similar upbringings.

My review of a new Tom Hanks movie best described as a mostly-lighthearted coming of age story during an apocalyptic road trip. If that has you scratching your head, read on.

Instead of my usual movie review format, here’s what I imagine the pitch meeting was like for “The Harder They Fall,” a new western with an almost all-Black cast that’s streaming now on Netflix.

My review of an action movie starring Maggie Q, Samuel L. Jackson, and Michael Keaton that I missed when it hit theaters in August, but is now available on DVD and video-on-demand.

My review of Edgar Wright’s new movie, starring Thomasin McKenzie, Anya Taylor-Joy, and another great soundtrack full of tunes from the Swinging Sixties in London.

My review of a new movie in which the parents of a school shooting victim sit down face-to-face with the parents of the boy who killed their son (and several others). Though fictional, its emotions are raw, and the performances spectacular.
