Review – Widows (2018)

by Armando Vanegas

Steve McQueen’s Widows is a very entertaining time as it feels like a throwback to the older dramas that used to be a big deal before superhero movies and franchises were a thing. If you want to see great actors doing their thing while a great director does his best job at being artful while being contained in a mainstream bubble, then this is the movie for you. A lot of the ads made this look like a big action-packed heist movie and just know that it’s not that. If you’ve seen any of McQueen’s other movies, you know what to expect from him here. It’s more of a slow burn character study about how three women are forced to break out of their shells created by their now deceased husbands through their crimes by way of financial stability. While that might seem heavy, it’s engrossing from beginning to end thanks to great performances and McQueen’s directing.

Review – Widows (2018)

by Old King Clancy

Given Steve McQueen’s (no not that one) previous works being far more dramatic affairs touching on protests, sex addiction, and slavery, having him helm a heist movie sounds strange on paper. Even more so when you realize the heist film is an adaptation of a British TV Series from the 80’s and co-written by Gone Girl’s Gillian Flynn. But as fans of both Flynn and McQueen’s works and a solid cast backing them up, Widows looked to be a thrilling change of pace.

What we got was a thrilling change of pace, but still carrying McQueen’s dramatic flair.

Review – A Monster Calls

Every so often in Hollywood, film makers throw at us a movie that looks like one that young children would enjoy, but contain themes that are way beyond their years.     In 2009, the long awaited adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s children’s book “Where the Wild Things Are” finally came to cinemas.  Many were expecting a movie about the adventures of a boy and a few oversized monsters.   What they got was a deep and meaningful piece of art about the emotions that Max, the human main character of the story, goes through and how he must deal with these extreme feelings.  Yeah, this definitely sounds like something a six year old would eat up.  Sarcasm aside, even though the movie was lauded by critics, it left many children and parents, wanting to find a movie to keep their kids occupied for two hours, cold to what was done to the beloved children’s novel.

Review – Silence (2016)

silence_lead

by Old King Clancy

When Scorsese came out with Wolf of Wall Street a few years ago he showed everyone that even at 70 he had the energy and the madness to fuel a 3 hour mess of excess and still have it be one of his best works. Now in 2016 Scorsese slows things down in order to return to a passion project of his, Silence based on the 1966 novel of the same name, a story about Jesuit Priests who travel to 17th Century Japan to spread the word of Christianity only to be met with suffering and persecution. Scorsese’s past in the priesthood is well-documented and the fact that he’s been trying for this project off the ground for 25 years means that this was always going to be an experience worth having.
