REVIEW: Men in Black: International (2019)

AlexGherzo | Jun 15, 2019 | 0

Men in Black: International is an unfunny comedy, a thriller that doesn’t thrill, a mystery with an obvious answer, and a science fiction movie with bad special effects. On top of all this, it manages to sap all the considerable charm out of Chris Hemsworth, a likable and charismatic star who ...

AlexGherzo | Apr 13, 2019 | 0

The Orville is back, and if “Sanctuary” is any indication, the last few episodes of this season are going to be wild. “Sanctuary” starts with what appears to be an intimate story harkening back to the show’s early days, but it escalates into another epic culture clash with another moral di...
