Meghan SchultzMay 16, 20245 min read
Hulu’s “Under the Bridge,” based on a true story, premiered in April and will continue to release new episodes weekly through May 29. The drama, rated TV-MA largely for its violence and language, stars Keough (of Prime Video’s “Daisy Jones and the Six”) and Golden Globe winner Lily Gladstone.

Movie Review: ‘Tarot’

John MulderigMay 15, 20242 min read
What’s on the cards for viewers of the horror flick “Tarot” (Screen Gems)? As it turns out, not much. While the bloodletting on display in this inept production is relatively restrained, the characters are cardboard and the mythos explaining their bedevilment lame.

Movie Review: ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’

John MulderigMay 13, 20243 min read
The values promoted in Josh Friedman’s script are certainly on target. And it’s easy to root for youthful Noa and his allies. Yet the pace is slow and there’s a lumbering feel to the proceedings.

‘Wildcat’ a reminder of Flannery O’Connor’s enduring attraction

Maria WieringMay 9, 20248 min read
Ethan Hawke knows “Wildcat,” his film about the life and imagination of Southern writer Flannery O’Connor released May 3, is unlikely to attract general audiences. “It’s a difficult subject matter for a lot of people.

Movie Review: ‘Wildcat’

John MulderigMay 6, 20243 min read
A blending of historical facts and Southern gothic fiction proves unstable in the biographical and literary drama “Wildcat” (Oscilloscope). As a result, director and co-writer Ethan Hawke achieves only mixed results as he seeks to introduce viewers to the life and works of Catholic author Flannery O’Connor.

Behind “We Grown Now” (Sony Pictures Classics), a drama influenced by real-life events, looms the 1992 murder of 7-year-old Dantrell Davis in Chicago’s Cabrini-Green public housing project. The crime had far-reaching consequences.
