‘Red One’ is the right choice for a refreshing Christmas story

By Danielle Cherry  “It is the choices you make that define you”  A technological Christmas wonderland awaits viewers of “The Red One,” filled with witty one-liners and seamless integration of Christmas culture from around the world. “The Red One” is a great film for older viewers, especially those seeking a thicker plot than an average Christmas movie and a thrill from suspenseful action sequences.  Jack O’Malley (Chris Evans) is a level-four naughty lister. ...

‘Arcane’ Season 2 gets downright Shakespearean (and I’m here for it)

By Ben Konuch “No beast is as savage as man.” “Arcane” is great. That’s a known fact by now, and I don’t think I’m going to win any originality points in this review by saying that. Over two-thirds of the way through its second and final season, “Arcane” has found a way to somehow keep doing more of what makes it such a phenomenal series. Unfortunately for us viewers, that includes the emotional stakes. The series has always balanced great action, good humor and ...

‘The Penguin’ ends with perfected tragedy

By Ben Konuch “I got the devil in my house, Rex. What am I supposed to do?” If you ask any longtime DC fan who they think the most monstrous Batman villain is, you’d probably get the same answer: the Joker. Of course, plenty of Batman’s longtime enemies are nasty, but how do you make mobsters like Black Mask or the Penguin appear as sadistic or hateable as the iconic Clown Prince of Crime? After finishing its final four episodes, I can now say that HBO’s “The Penguin” ...

‘An Almost Christmas Story’ was almost heartwarming

By Ashleigh Clark I rarely enjoy modern Christmas movies. They usually have too much to say or are far too similar to the ones before them.  “An Almost Christmas Story” almost felt the same way.  Co-produced by Alfonso Cuaron, the short film tells the tale of a lost baby owl (Moon) and a little girl (Luna) trying to find their way home in unforgiving New York City.  Moon’s journey begins when he hides from a hawk in a giant pine tree. Unfortunately, this tree ...
