Those layers, baked in by director Daryl Wein (How It Ends), present a small, but very commendable maturity and restraint from the norm. Characters with tangible messiness about them are still pausing to think with their heart and head equally. That relatability brings about romantic possibilities in Something From Tiffany’s that spark with stronger potential connections than the short burst of superficial fireworks based on mere looks. Enjoy that little diversion on Amazon Prime.
Read MoreSex sold then and it still does now. Go ahead and say it. D.H. Lawrence rolled in the hay so the likes of E.L. James could bang on posh furniture. Even so, both authors love that touchy-feely F-word. Watching an enlivened adaptation of Lawrence’s firebrand prose today– debuting on Netflix December 2nd and directed by The Mustang’s Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre– reminds us that sexual awakenings are still valuable, and, best of all, desirable.

Sunset Boulevard is, deservedly, one of the most iconic films ever made. Unfortunately, since the movie is over seventy years old, many people don't know a lot about this masterpiece. Therefore, here is an in-depth review of the fifties classic Sunset Boulevard.
Read MoreSo much of Confess, Fletch feels like a wiser-than the norm throwback against the hefty audience quadrant that will always prefer the louder, action-ified punch of the James Bonds and Jason Bournes of the world over a journalist gumshoe. If that crowd can slow down for a smaller and smoother ride, they will find mental thrills equally clever to the pop of blockbuster stunts that fade as quickly as they explode.
Read MoreWhen my Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast partner Will Johnson was in town, Mike Crowley of the You’ll Probably Agree website (and fellow 25YL film critic) was kind enough to be the video host for some collaborative crossover content among a gathering of mutual friends. Cati Glidewell of The Blonde in Front and freelancer Hayden Mears of Collider joined us with the plan of recording two sessions of shared video and audio content. Shot inside Chicago’s The Laugh Factory, this first episode is a discussion on movies that make us cry. Enjoy this energetic and emotional conversation and be sure to follow Mike’s work on 25YL.
Read MoreThere is no star-fueled preening on this no-name cast. The body count is patient, yet raised to a frightful level. The kills are often quick and brutal. Prey stays precisely locked into the relentless gear and exciting pace this legendary movie monster threat has long deserved.
Read MoreBoth men are stupendously deadly in their own ways. Seen and unseen pushers and handlers with unreliable agendas have tied hands, and forced ones too, for the repercussions to come. Pit these two men and their motives against each other, and the unpredictability ignites itself in The Gray Man. Wall to wall, the Russos have unleashed what may stand as the best pure action movie of 2022.
Read MoreIn both keen and ineffective ways, mood confusion is the slant of choice for Joseph Kosinski’s Spiderhead opening on Netflix this week. Targeting both the narrative characters and us in the voyeurs’ seats, purposeful choices are made to set a certain vibe. That curated atmosphere is meant to cloak and subvert a more impactful identity underneath. The clinchers for Spiderhead’s engagement as a thriller are how tantalizing the constructed mood is and how provocative is the hidden truth.
Read MoreLet's be honest – for many of us, films are about passion. Experiences while playing online slots, cards or while betting are intriguing and give special emotions. That is why many of us are looking for new Bitcoin slots, looking for online casinos, betting on sports or at least watching the best movies on the subject.
Read MoreThrough all of these little shocks to the system, nostalgia trips, and learning leaps is Rebel Wilson’s bull in a China shop. Much like Ryan Reynolds, Rebel Wilson is at her best playing Rebel Wilson. She has his commitment-to-the bit where her saucy signature personality and quick wit always follow her physical comedic bravery. She tells it like it is and we love it. Like her character, Rebel herself is more beautiful, smart, and funny that we give her full credit for.
Read MoreTo its credit and nicely lifted by music by Beach House and a peppy soundtrack, Along for the Ride is a positive story for connections built on trust and friendship first and attraction second. It is not just some party movie of hot bodies wooing each other with little to no consequences. Love and identity are the center and they don’t come easy. Nothing is automatic or preachy for the characters. Alvarez has created a lush space safe for the expression and healing of personal emotions heavier than the usual wants and needs of youth.
