Movie Review: ‘Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse’

John MulderigJune 7, 20232 min read
The parade of Spideys is something of an inside joke and may prove confusing to the uninitiated. But the film overall – which is safest for grown-ups but also possibly acceptable for mature adolescents – is a lively crowd pleaser and will likely be catnip for hardcore fans.

Movie Review: ‘Padre Pio’

John MulderigJune 1, 20233 min read
The film is less a profile of the titular saint, Padre Pio, played passionately by Shia LaBeouf, than a portrait of San Giovanni Rotondo, the Apulian town of his Capuchin monastery, in the period immediately after World War I.

Movie Review: ‘The Boogeyman’

John MulderigJune 1, 20233 min read

Adele Chapline SmithJune 1, 20233 min read

Movie Review: ‘The Little Mermaid’

John MulderigMay 25, 20233 min read
There’s nothing shopworn about Marshall’s skilled and sprightly repackaging – old-fashioned in the best sense, it’s a high-quality, family friendly summer treat.
TV Review: ‘Mrs. Davis’
Movie & Television Reviews

TV Review: ‘Mrs. Davis’

John MulderigMay 24, 20233 min read
“Mrs. Davis” is not anti-religious in any sense. But it’s clear that showrunner and co-writer Tara Hernandez – along with her principal script collaborator, Damon Lindelof – is out to break boundaries and flout convention in her presentation of faith as well as in her approach to storytelling.

Videogame review: ‘Tin Hearts’

Adele Chapline SmithMay 18, 20233 min read
With its winning story and endearing animations, “Tin Hearts” (Wired Productions) proves a golden option for gamers.

Movie Review: ‘Book Club: The Next Chapter”

John MulderigMay 18, 20233 min read
With age comes wisdom, so we’re told. But apparently that doesn’t apply to the quartet of AARP-eligible friends at the core of the romantic comedy sequel “Book Club: The Next Chapter” (Focus).
