Rory McIlroy is arguably the greatest golfer of his generation.

I hope you’re happy, Netflix, because now I want to raise a baby pangolin, and I probably won’t be alone.

In theaters today, Ray Mendoza & Alex Garland’s WARFARE is a visceral wallop that drops the audience into the breathless nightmare of combat, minus all the usual narrative frills that dilute the experience. Riveting stuff. My @THR review https://t.co/ywzQIhd9hH

Michael B. Jordan dazzles as gangster twins selling a taste of freedom to 1932 Mississippi sharecroppers in Ryan Coogler’s audacious, genre-hopping dance with the devil, SINNERS. You’re unlikely to see a bigger, ballsier movie this year. My @THR review https://t.co/yddkM5udxy

So much fun contributing to @THR’s roundup of steamy TV with @jon_frosch, @TheFienPrint, @ajhan, @simplylovia & @RobynBahr. A KY-sponsored prize to anyone who can guess who wrote which blurb. https://t.co/P2SWrLGeKC
