Movie Review: ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’

March 31, 2023
By Kurt Jensen
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

A voyage through the forbidding landscape known to insiders as the Underdark is as jolly as a skip down the Yellow Brick Road in “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” (Paramount).

Movie Review: ‘John Wick: Chapter 4, a festival of fatality’

March 23, 2023

OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Stylish savagery is the order of the day as Keanu Reeves reprises his role as the hitman of the title. Wick’s ongoing struggle to break free of the High Table, the ultra-powerful behind-the-scenes criminal empire that once claimed his allegiance, becomes the cue for innumerable doomed extras to bite the dust.

Movie Review: ‘In Viaggio: The Travels of Pope Francis’

March 22, 2023

OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Despite its depiction of some of the world’s most pressing problems, filmmaker Gianfranco Rosi’s polished retrospective maintains a tranquil tone as it looks back over the 37 journeys to 53 different countries undertaken by the pontiff during the first nine years of his pontificate.

Movie Review: ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods’

March 17, 2023
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

This sequel to the 2019 origin story for the titular DC Comics character serves up action, special effects and some humorous dialogue, it fails to make much of a lasting impression.

Movie Review: ’65’

March 16, 2023

OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Feeling nostalgic for the Mesozoic Era? You won’t be after seeing the sci-fi adventure “65.”

OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Fans of comic auteur Mel Brooks may be anxious to view the Hulu streaming series “History of the World: Part II,” the small-screen follow-up to his 1981 movie, subtitled — what else? — “Part I.”

Movie Review: ‘Scream VI’

March 10, 2023
By Kurt Jensen
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

The dreary horror flick “Scream VI” is the latest entry in a franchise that now looks desperate for ways to rejigger its formula of attractive young actors getting stabbed by its trademark masked killer, Ghostface.

Movie Review: ‘Champions’

March 9, 2023
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews, Sports

Positive basic values, including an implicit pro-life message, underlie the somewhat rough-grained surface of the sports comedy “Champions.”

Movie Review: ‘Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre’

March 9, 2023
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

The light-hearted tone of the stylish comic spy yarn “Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre” (Lionsgate) suggests that it should be approached in an equally relaxed mood.

Video Game Review: ‘Atomic Heart’

March 9, 2023
By Adele Chapline Smith
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

Although “Atomic Heart” is set in an alternate version of the Soviet Union, the release of a game primarily focused on Russian military activity of any kind within days of the first anniversary of that nation’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine registers as inappropriate at best and sinister at worst.

Movie Review: ‘Creed III’

March 8, 2023
By John Mulderig
OSV News
Filed Under: Movie & Television Reviews

“Creed III,” the ninth film in the “Rocky” series, is a thinking-person’s sports drama that will appeal even to those with no particular interest in well-choreographed slugfests.
