Posted on October 1, 2024October 5, 2024 by Jacob Davis

Francis Ford Coppola passion project ‘Megalopolis’ (2024) is a failure. It is a downright unenjoyable vanity project that proves the director’s best days are behind him. Review by Jacob Davis.

Posted on August 28, 2024September 10, 2024 by Margaret Roarty

The 2024 remake of ‘The Crow’, starring Bill Skarsgård and FKA twigs, directed by Rupert Sanders, is ill-conceived. It should have stayed dead and buried. Review by Margaret Roarty.
