Movie Breakdown: Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania
Pre-Screening Stance: Phase 5 of the MCU has begun with the arrival of Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania. The trailers for it have been fine, I suppose, but I also have to admit that the...
Movie Breakdown: Magic Mike’s Last Dance
Pre-Screening Stance: Where Magic Mike is a mostly solid film, Magic Mike XXL is a total delight. I’d really like Magic Mike’s Last Dance to be more like the latter, but with it being back...

Movie Breakdown: Violent Night
Pre-Screening Stance: David Harbour as the actual Santa Claus in a Die Hard-like situation? How weird but also fitting. Anyhow, yes, sign me up right away. Post-Screening Ramble: Violent Night is one of those films...
