Knock knock. Who's there? It's "Knock at the Cabin," a shallow, shoddy ​and condescending thriller that I can already tell you will stand as one of the worst offerings of 2023.

2022 is nearing its end, and for many, it's good-riddance. The movie industry has shown resilience with some massive blockbusters this year, and a return to people seeing movies in theaters.

The long-awaited sequel to what had at one time been the #1 box office movie of all-time, Avatar, is now in theaters...and I'm happy to say that it's been worth the wait.

Forget what you know about the story of "Pinocchio," and then please, please, PLEASE forget about the recent Disney+ live-action remake from earlier this year.

"Cinderella" - released back in 1950 (!!!) - came to us back in an era of experimentation, unbridled creativity and endless wonder, led by the American pioneer, Walt Disney.

The best entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) have been equal parts exciting as well as funny.

Musically-inclined director Baz Lurhmann cannot be criticized for his Elvis biopic containing "a little less conversation, a little more action."

Yep, I said it: "Top Gun: Maverick" has the chops to compete for the Best Picture of 2022. And why wouldn't it be considered? Sure, it's not even June and most "award-worthy" films don't see release until the Fall season. Action-blockbusters are not often - if ever - remembered at year's end.

Today, we are all familiar with hostage negotiations, having seen them umpteen times over and over again in television shows and movies. But some may not realize that having a "negotiator" was a fairly recent advancement.

Is this new movie funny? Oh absolutely (my wife and I actually had to stop the screener at one point during a "terrible rap" that the characters were doing, because we were laughing so hard). So if you're looking for laughs and laughs alone, this one might be for you.
