Movie Reviews and Previews Diana’s kinky origins in Professor Marston and the Wonder Women Several movies in October are running up against bad timing, including Geostorm’s “the weather is trying to kill us” plot becoming redundant because the actual weather is actually trying to kill us, and Marshall’s depiction of a sexual assault case being made even more uncomfortable given the ongoing By Sarah • Oct 13, 2017 01:02 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford in Blade Runner 2049 Blade Runner 2049 did not live up to expectations, opening with just $32 million (against a reported $150 million budget and a big marketing push).
