Movie Review: ‘Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale’

John MulderigSeptember 5, 20254 min read
Both the upstairs and downstairs inhabitants of the titular stately home get a splendid send-off in “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale” (Focus).

Movie Review: ‘Honey Don’t!’

John MulderigAugust 25, 20252 min read
Moral squalor is the order of the day in the dark comedy “Honey Don’t!”. While clearly intended as an homage to film noir by director and co-writer (with Tricia Cooke) Ethan Coen, the rancid proceedings also borrow all too heavily from the sleazy world of 1960s and 1970s grindhouse fare.
