Media Notebook: ‘The Blood of Jesus’

John MulderigFebruary 23, 20233 min read
Simple, straightforward and even naive, “The Blood of Jesus” is also, at times, dreamy and ethereal.

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: ’80 for Brady’

John MulderigFebruary 4, 20232 min read
A bunch of talented stars headline the comedy “80 for Brady” (Paramount). But they’re left becalmed by the inertia of this going-through-the-motions paean to football fandom.

Movie Review: ‘Knock at the Cabin’

John MulderigFebruary 2, 20233 min read
It may be the end of the world as we know it in “Knock at the Cabin.” But, unlike R.E.M.’s Michael Stipe, no one in this offbeat but effective thriller feels fine.
