Which Witch is Which?

Has Black Phillip Got Thy Goat in THE WITCH? I’d already reviewed THE WITCH (2015), a movie I definitely liked a great deal. I think Robert Eggers has created a near-masterpiece in this work, and it’s stuck with me after a viewing. I plan to catch it again...

REVIEW: Deadpool

REVIEW: Deadpool

DEADPOOL (2016) is a blast. Pure and simple. Is like willful cinematic junk food binge, and like how such things invariably are, it’s a satisfying splurge. I think this movie may be the fullest realization of a comic book character onscreen, which is hilarious...
