Movie Reviews and Previews Zachary Levi in Shazam! Here’s a surprise, Shazam! is delightful, by far the most fun and upbeat—and optimistic—movie DC Films has produced. So it’s a little bit of a bummer the movie isn’t doing any better. It opened this weekend with $53 million, which isn’t bad, but it’ By Sarah • Apr 08, 2019 02:53 pm

Music Mo-cap Cats Here’s a question I’ve been asking on this site for months now: what the f-ck is this Cats movie? The Cats movie comes out just before Christmas.

Movie Reviews and Previews Octavia Spencer’s horror moment It’s an unspoken rule of entertainment that the horror genre can deliver great roles to actresses in a way traditional dramatic often doesn’t. Consider Toni Collette in Hereditary, or Lupita Nyong’o in Us, or Jamie Lee Curtis’s resurgence thanks to Halloween—horror often comes through when By Sarah • Apr 04, 2019 02:04 pm
BFFs The Rock and The Stath: A united front Hobbs & Shaw is one of my most anticipated movies of the year.

Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for April 3, 2019 Dear Gossips, Avengers: Endgame set a record yesterday for ticket pre-sales, surpassing Star Wars: The Force Awakens on the all-time list.
