Longlegs (2024)

by Becca Johnson

Longlegs is an ominous, dread inducing flick helmed by exceptional lead performances and a unique visual style.

Kinds of Kindness

Kinds of Kindness Review: This Wonderfully Wacky Psychosexual Triptych Won’t be for Everyone

by Becca Johnson

With sharp dialogue, laugh out loud black comedy and a lot of themes and ideas to chew on (perhaps too many), Kinds of Kindness is a bold, divisive character study that will be commended by most, but not loved by all. 

A Quiet Place: Day One

‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ Review: An Emotionally Resonant, Worthwhile Prequel

A Quiet Place: Day One is mostly a triumph, helmed by exceptional lead performances from Nyong’o and Quinn, brilliant technical aspects including beautiful cinematography and clever sound design.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’ Review: Strong Action Sequences Cannot Save a Bad Script

by Becca Johnson

Godzilla x Kong is an entertaining way to pass two hours, yet its poor script and lack of character development stop it from being truly great.

With well-developed characters, a consistently engaging storyline that forces you to change your perspective at each scene and an extremely powerful ending, Monster is a truly beautiful piece of cinema.
