Searingly honest and comically revealing, Springsteen on Broadway is the Boss at his evocative best, notwithstanding some unintentional irony. This final performance of his 2018 one-man show (basically a live autobiography) hits the solar plexus with emotion and keen insight, more so than even …

Into the Spider-Verse is the best Spider-Man movie ever, by far, and also the best 2018 movie I’ve seen. No surprise, it represents the super-pairing of Stan Lee & Marvel’s Spider-Man with über-brilliant pop culturalist Phil Lord, he of the super smart and buoyantly funny Lego Movie…

Spider-Man hasn’t lacked great reboots, but this third is the greatest yet. It’s the most High School by far, if not the first set in that adolescent crucible. Mostly, Spider-Man: Homecoming benefits by being the first Spider-Man movie to be produced by Marvel, odd though that may seem. Marv…

Source Code’s a challenging movie to like. I found myself not liking it for the first half, then kinda liking it, then really liking it, only to back off at the end to kinda really liking it. Complicated? Yep, complexity overload is part of its problem. Yet Duncan Jones’ sophomore picture r…

Snitch is a damn good movie unfairly dinged because it hews closer to reality than most action thrillers. It’s a solid fatherhood movie, trucker movie and desperate-man-doing-desperate-things movie. Plus it’s got a charismatic star, even if he’s too boffo for his role. That would be Dwayne…
