Movie Breakdown: I Want You Back
Pre-Screening Stance: Director Jason Orley’s Big Time Adolescence (back in 2019 with Pete Davidson as the lead) was solid, and I’ve always been into both Charlie Day and Jenny Slate. Definitely expecting good things here....

Pre-Screening Stance: The cast for The 355 is a good one – Jessica Chastain, Penelope Cruz, Diane Kruger, Lupita Nyong’o, Sebastian Stan – but it’s directed by Simon Kinberg, the guy behind the woeful X-Men:...
Movie Breakdown: The Matrix Resurrections
Pre-Screening Stance: I’ve yet to be able to figure out what The Matrix Resurrections is even about, so I think it’s best that I head into it with zero expectations. Post-Screening Ramble: The Matrix Resurrections...
