Movie & Television Reviews

Although the film “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret” is a generally upbeat affair, such caution is not entirely unwarranted.

The realistic-feeling, albeit not fact-based, adventures the screenplay chronicles are not for the fainthearted — nor for those who object to soldierly swearing.

The Grim Reaper gets his house in order in the visually charming quest-themed game “Have a Nice Death” (Gearbox).

An apt subtitle for the forceful fact-based drama “Air” (Amazon) might be: “How to Succeed in Business by Trying Really Hard.”

There are religious underpinnings to the fact-based emergency-in-the-air drama “On a Wing and a Prayer,” which is streaming now on Amazon Prime.

No one can accuse the folks behind the animated origin story “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” (Universal) of false advertising.

The epic action-adventure game “God of War: Ragnarok” (Sony Interactive Entertainment) is something of a mixed bag. On the one hand, it’s full of dramatic storytelling, rich environments and clever puzzles.
