I don’t know a single person who watches Marlon Wayans’ spoof movies. At least nobody who will admit to watching them out in public. But clearly somebody is though, as Hollywood studios keep giving Wayans money to make more despite the films generally being the equivalent of a self-administered cinematic lobotomy. And the next brain cell killer from the young …

The last time Michael Shannon had to deal with somebody with super powers, a whole city was nearly destroyed by dubstep and Batman got pissed off. Luckily, Midnight Special doesn’t feature an alien in a tight blue onesie and a red cape but it certainly doesn’t look any less super. The upcoming film reteams Shannon with his Take Shelter and …

The Hobbit trilogy is nowhere near as good as the almost mythic Lord of the Rings trilogy. This is a fact that no amount of fanboy defending can get around. In fact, some would even insist that they outright stunk. So what happened? How did the same team that produced such a sublime, Oscar winning adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic …

I am Groot! I am GROOT! Oops, sorry. Wrong movie. I am supposed to talk about The Last Witch Hunter in which Vin Diesel will probably have a bit more to say… Probably!

And now Hollywood has decided that they need to team up. I mean …

Hayley Atwell is awesome. Besides for being gorgeous, witty, charming and completely ruling the internet with hilarious Instagram posts and Dubsmash wars, she is of course also Peggy Carter, the kickass Marvel character that was first introduced to us a love interest to Chris Evans’ Cap in Captain America: The First Avenger but has since gone on to steal all …

When it came to magician-heist actioner Now You See Me, the biggest magic trick it pulled off, in my opinion, was making $351 million at the box office. Sure it was flashy and entertaining in places, but it completely underutlized its stellar cast and tried to be too clever for its own good with nudge-nudge, wink-wink plot twists stretching plausibility …
