THE SHEEP DETECTIVES Features A Charming And Amusing Flock of Detectives
Can a murder mystery be family-friendly? Well, such a notion might initially sound absurd, but apparently it can be pulled off. And while the plot of The Sheep Detectives does involve the killing of a character, the movie never features any explicit content or graphic violence. If anything, this film, aimed at younger audiences and… Continue reading THE SHEEP DETECTIVES Features A Charming And Amusing Flock of Detectives

MICHAEL: An Example Of Post-Production Issues And Poor Choices
I won’t lie: I had qualms going into Antoine Fuqua’s Michael Jackson biopic. As soon as I heard a biopic was in the works, I wondered how it would turn out. Would it simply celebrate his tremendous talents, address MJ’s unusual behavior and history of parental abuse, or explore the controversies surrounding the molestation allegations… Continue reading MICHAEL: An Example Of Post-Production Issues And Poor Choices
SXSW 2026: OVER YOUR DEAD BODY – A Suprisingly Great Remake of An Also Great Norwegian Film
At the 2021 Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas, I enjoyed a hilarious, yet tremendously violent, action-comedy-thriller from Norway titled The Trip. In the U.S., this movie didn’t get a theatrical release, but it was picked up by Netflix, so it probably didn’t get the attention it deserved, and unfortunately, it became a faded memory for… Continue reading SXSW 2026: OVER YOUR DEAD BODY – A Suprisingly Great Remake of An Also Great Norwegian Film

SXSW 2026: NORMAL– Action Odenkirk Is Back!
On the fourth evening of the festival, the SXSW programmers gave us a rare treat–they screened a movie on 35mm film. These days, it is pretty rare to see a modern movie in theaters presented in the old-school format. For most cinephiles, watching movies this way happens only maybe once or twice a year. The… Continue reading SXSW 2026: NORMAL– Action Odenkirk Is Back!
