'Eric LaRue' Movie Review: A Demanding but Emotionally Resonant Experience

That does not mean it is bad, but it is something that demands a lot from its viewers.

Director Gareth Evans made waves with his 2011 film, The Raid: Redemption, and its 2014 sequel, The Raid 2. Both films became modern-day staples of the action genre, delivering a one-of-a-kind experience. They are films that, 10+ years later, still have an impact on the cultural discussion of action movies. It set a high precedent amongst fans who now knew this filmmaker’s (and the genre’s) capabilities.

The Last Rodeo, from director Jon Avnet with a script by Avnet, Derek Presley, and star Neal McDonough, sits well within this well-known and well-loved subgenre.

3 weeks ago | movieswetextedabout.com | Carmen Paddock

BBY 1 is here. Concluding Andor’s second season with the events of Rogue One imminent was always going to happen, but it takes an explosive set of events to get news of the Death Star to the Rebellion’s headquarters on Yavin, and thus to send Cassian (Diego Luna) off with K-2SO (Alan Tudyk) in search of Galen and Jyn Erso.

'The Righteous Gemstones' Season 4 Review: Closure Doesn't Come in a Tidy Package

3 weeks ago | movieswetextedabout.com | Gabe Lapalombella

Very few creatives have made quality comedy television series. Classics from folks like Larry David and Garry Shandling and old-school favorites from Lucille Ball are harder to come by. Among modern comedic television voices, one of the biggest must be Danny McBride. Besides his work with filmmakers like Seth Rogen and David Gordon Green, McBride has carved a niche in comedic television. Shows like Eastbound and Down and Vice Principals grew a beloved fanbase.

4 weeks ago | movieswetextedabout.com | Carmen Paddock

Once again, Andor Season 2 moves one year later. When the clock rolls forward to BBY 2 at the start of Episode 7, Messenger, Cassian (Diego Luna) is on Yavin itself, working with organised and rapidly mobilising Rebel forces rather than just as the mercenary of Luthen (Stellan Skarsgard). Of course, he and Bix (Adria Arjona) could not stay on Coruscant after murdering Doctor Gorst (Joshua James) in a spectacular, satisfying win at the end of Episode 6, What a Festive Evening.

During the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), cinema was a meaningful tool for propaganda and Soviet cultural identity development. As the USSR had a massive territorial length, each region would have a unique voice in its approach regarding filmmaking. Therefore, plenty of the productions from the Soviet period are not in the canonical thread in the film study. Armenian director Tamara Stepanyan tackles the history of local films through her documentary essay, My Armenian Phantoms.
