Movie Review: ‘Road House’

John MulderigApril 4, 20242 min read
Way back in 1989, Patrick Swayze found an action vehicle in the tale of a brawling bouncer hired to keep the loutish patrons of an Indiana bar in line. Switch venues from the Midwest to the Southeast and substitute Jake Gyllenhaal’s biceps for Swayze’s and you have the wholly unnecessary remake “Road House” (Amazon MGM).

Videogame Review: ‘Alan Wake 2’

Adele Chapline SmithMarch 28, 20242 min read
Well-crafted but intense and unsparing, the survival horror game “Alan Wake 2” (Epic) presents a narrative that delves into the human psyche in a sophisticated way. Only those grown-ups willing to encounter graphic content, however, should grapple with it.

Movie Review: ‘Immaculate’

John MulderigMarch 27, 20243 min read
A similar sense of blinkered rejection and smug relief may be detected in “Immaculate” (Neon), a vile piece of horror tripe from director Michael Mohan.

Movie Review: ‘The American Society of Magical Negroes’

Kurt JensenMarch 21, 20243 min read
An old movie trope is spun into a satiric fantasy with middling results in “The American Society of Magical Negroes” (Focus).

Movie Review: ‘One Life’

John MulderigMarch 20, 20243 min read
An understated tone bolsters the impact of the fact-based drama “One Life” (Bleecker Street). The educational value and formative potential of the film’s uplifting story, a lesser-known chapter in the history of the Holocaust, moreover, make it probably acceptable for older teens, despite some off-color vocabulary in the script.
