Getting cast as the lead in aSteven Spielbergfilm is a pretty great way to kickstart a career, andGabriel Labellewas offered the chance to prove himself when he took on the lead role of Sammy Fabelman inThe Fabelmans. There’s always the slight risk that taking on a part so iconic as a first role would make it hard to find subsequent work, but LaBelle was able to rebound fairly quickly when he was cast as the legendarySaturday Night LiveproducerLorne MichaelsinJason Reitman’s comedic biopicSaturday Night....

EveryOscarseason, viewers can count on a few constants: questionable snubs, heated discourse about the morality of the Best Picture slate, and the Best Actress race being an absolute mess. The actresses themselves are unfailingly professional, but Film Twitter is taken over by legions of stans, frothing at the mouth and waging indiscriminate war against each other. This year was worse than ever: fromKristen StewarttoNicole Kidman,everynominated actress this year, and a few who were snubbed, has a parasocial cult to their name....

Romantic comedieshave this sense of predictability. They are formulaic, and that formula has worked for so long. It isn’t always good; it sometimes brings a film down, but then there are times when it plays into those tropes that we know, and everything just falls into place. Times where using tropes and predictability works for the better;Hulu’sCrushis one of those times. Queer happiness is often not a given in films and television shows....

In many waysDesierto,the second film directed byJonas Cuarón, is quite similar to that blockbuster that he just wrote with his father Alfonso,Gravity. Both movies are stripped down survivalist action flicks that have deliver the goods conceptually and viscerally as genre entertainment. However, both also have an allegorical angle to their action that doesn’t work nearly as well as the surface qualities, even though it’s suppose to enhance them. WhileGravityeasily masked its weakness by doubling down on transcendent technique to keep brains at bay,Desiertotakes on overtly political themes head on, so the unfortunately simplistic and sentimental explorations of that material are all the more apparent....

I have been keeping up with the Kardashian family for as long as I can remember. From their OG show,Keeping Up With The Kardashians, to when they moved over toHuluto film their new and improved show,The Kardashians,I have watched and loved both shows. I can definitely say the glitz and glam of the Kardashian/Jenner lifestyle and all the perks that come along with it seem fantastic. I am so tired of seeing this family receive a tremendous amount of hate for simply living their lives....

A new international trailer forDavid Gordon Green’s upcoming horror revisitHalloweenshows off even more footage than thenew trailerthat was released just yesterday. When it comes to paying homage to the original film, Michael Myers' particular brand of stalking and killing (and fashion), and the slasher sub-genre in general, this new cut is super sharp. But when it comes to offering something different or ::gasp:: compelling, it falls a bit short. As much as I loveJamie Lee Curtis, her character Laurie Strode is basically a 60-something, White gun-nut in suburban America, a doomsday prepper with delusions of grandeur; unless this script does something unexpected with that character as a reflection of the actual evils in our modern society, I’m not particularly interested in it....
