I loved the 2015 filmSicario. Directed byDenis Villeneuveand beautifully photographed by cinematographerRoger Deakins, the unsettling thriller was loaded with fantastic performances and an amazing score byJóhann Jóhannsson. In addition,Taylor Sheridan’sexcellent script kept audiences on the edge of their seat while also tackling serious real world issues about America’s war on the Mexican drug cartels. If you’ve never seen the film, I strongly recommend checking it out. When I first heard they were making a sequel toSicario, titledSicario: Day of the Soldado, I’ll admit I was skeptical....

In the midst of “Pokemon Go” madness as it descends uponSan Diego Comic-Con, a curious story about aPokemonmovie that might have been has risen up through a sea of lures and incense. No, it’s notOliver Stone’s vision of the Nintendo characters-based video game as"a new level of invasion" that could lead to totalitarianism, it’s actually a cute and sweet version of thePokemonstory envisioned byMax Landis. Now “cute” and “sweet” might not be the first thing you think of when you hear the name Max Landis, but the screenwriter/producer/director defends both his filmography and hisPokemonpitch quite well during an interview with our ownSteve Weintraubduring Comic-Con....

Disney has run into a problem with their live-action adaptations lately. Their live-action versions ofBeauty and the Beast,Aladdin, andThe Lion Kinghave been box office hits, but surprisingly lifeless. They’ve cared more about addressing bad-faith arguments of YouTubers concerned with plot holes than actually finding a way to tell a new story.Niki Caro’s adaptation of 1998’sMulandoesn’t have this problem. Although Caro largely follows the same beats of the original, the new version feels vibrant and unique....

Requiem for a Dreammakes me smile. I walk away from every viewing newly inspired. It’s a rejuvenating, invigorating, and wholly alive piece of cinema. Now, if you’ve seenRequiem for a Dream, you’re probably asking me, “What in all hecks is wrong with you?” And you’ve got a point!Requiem for a Dreamis a drama about four characters who descend into addiction-fueled nightmares. It is, objectively, harrowing, terrifying, anddisturbing. It’s a relentless assault on the senses, an unmerciful descent into chaos, a study of four characters ziplining their way to rock bottom....

Easily one of the most anticipated movies of the year isGareth Edwards’Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. And since the Lucasfilm production is introducing new characters and worlds set in a familiar universe, it’s a good bet that the fandom is going to have lots and lots of details to obsess over for years to come. I have good news for the cosplay/guidebook-making section of that fandom out there: 13 new hi-res images offer up looks at the characters and costumes ofRogue Onein unprecedented detail....
