SISU

True View Reviews Guest Critic: Jordi Levinrad SISU is a fantastic Popcorn Flick that grabs you from the beginning and does not let go for 91 minutes.  The movie poster proclaims “glorious carnage,” and the trailer was absolutely riveting; an excellent sales pitch. I had to see it! Written and directed by Jalmari Helander, the… Continue reading SISU

SXSW: A Small Light – Disney’s WWII Drama shines Brilliantly

Having had the opportunity to attend a few SXSW screenings with my granddaughter was a real treat, but when we ventured into the screening of A Small Light, it wasn’t until an abrupt non-end to the story that I realized we were seeing a TV series preview. A Small Light is a somber, engaging retelling… Continue reading SXSW: A Small Light – Disney’s WWII Drama shines Brilliantly

POLITE SOCIETY Delivers Soapy Fun & Action

I missed/overlooked this delightful movie at this year’s SXSW, and now I am kicking myself for not experiencing it with a festival audience. Going into this movie, I had already watched the trailer and was somewhat annoyed with the preview. The entire presentation of that glimpse came across as silly, ridiculous, and grating. Thankfully, despite… Continue reading POLITE SOCIETY Delivers Soapy Fun & Action

CITADEL Could Be Solid, But the First Episodes Don’t Deliver That Promise

The Russo Brothers, who had much success with their entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, have yet to have much success with any of their other projects. I am sad to say that their latest foray leaves much to be desired. From Amazon Studios comes a series that promises espionage action, intrigue, and action; however,… Continue reading CITADEL Could Be Solid, But the First Episodes Don’t Deliver That Promise

Are you there, God? It’s me, Margaret: Sure to become a TIMELESS CLASSIC

Adapting beloved books to the screen can daunt many. While there are some apparent successes, few please all of the people all of the time. Are you there, God? It’s Me, Margaret by Judy Blume has touched the lives of many young girls since its first edition in the 1970s. Blume’s novel is one of… Continue reading Are you there, God? It’s me, Margaret: Sure to become a TIMELESS CLASSIC

THE TANK

Writer/Director Scott Walker (The Frozen Ground) presents the new feature film, The Tank, with a creature that can make anyone have a fear of water (where it resides) or perhaps fear of hiking in the woods, as this creature seems to have the capacity to prey on land for their next meal. I like the… Continue reading THE TANK
