Movie Review: ‘Jesus Revolution’

John MulderigMarch 2, 20233 min read
Refreshingly free of the usual objectionable ingredients, this generally appealing Evangelically flavored look back at a somewhat surprising chapter in Baby Boomer history is doctrinally dodgy but ethically uplifting.

Movie Review: ‘Cocaine Bear’

John MulderigFebruary 25, 20232 min read

Movie Review: ‘Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania’

John MulderigFebruary 17, 20233 min read
As suggested by its rather cumbersome title, there’s a lot going on in “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania” (Disney). Unfortunately, the film, while free of gore and any really problematic material, ultimately adds up to less than the sum of its parts.

Movie Review: ‘Magic Mike’s Last Dance’

John MulderigFebruary 9, 20232 min read

Movie Review: ‘Lourdes’

John MulderigFebruary 7, 20233 min read
In the documentary “Lourdes” (Distrib Films), filmmakers Alban Teurlai and Thierry Demaiziere present a moving portrait of one of the world’s most popular pilgrimage sites and of the suffering people who are drawn to it.

Movie Review: ’80 for Brady’

John MulderigFebruary 4, 20232 min read
