Mark Walhberg’s Best Performance, End of Story

There aren’t many actors working today who’ve had such impressive ups and downs in their career asMark Wahlberg,a star who seems to generate controversy with each new direction he takes. Wahlberg may have worked with great filmmakers likeMartin Scorsese, James Gray,andWolfgang Peterson, but it seems that in recent years he’s been content to star in whatever ridiculous action or comedy film is best suited to appeal to his established audience. It’s disappointing that the actor who once earned an Academy Award nomination forThe Departedandserved as a scene stealer inI Heart Huckabeesis spending his time making forgettable duds likeMe Time, Arthur the King, The Union, Infinite, andThe Family Planamong others....

Marvel Phase 2 Retrospective Ties the Universe Together

There’s “fan made,” and then there’s the step above that’s so well-crafted you may’t tell whether it’s from an amateur or the real deal. This MCU Phase 2 retrospective is the latter. Edited together by YouTube and Vimeo userClark Zhu, the video takes us on the journey fromIron Man 3toAnt-Manin under five minutes. Better still, it has the same story arc as many Marvel films. It begins with the introduction of the Marvel heroes and villains, a music change marks the “all is lost” moment as the characters reel from a major defeat or loss while questioning themselves, and then it builds towards the end much like our heroes bounce back to finish off their enemies....

Nomadland Review: A Gorgeous Elegy for Life After the American Dream

This is a repost of our review from the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival. Nomadlandis now available on Huluand in theaters. FilmmakerChloé Zhaois a magician. I don’t use that word to imply that her writing, directing, and editing doesn’t take great effort or that it’s a cheap trick. When I call her “a magician”, it means that the way she’s able to capture humanity without it ever feeling cheap, sentimental, or maudlin, is nothing short of magic....

Outer Worlds Review: A Game of the Year Contender from Obsidian

Around this time last year, I began my 100% journey throughRed Dead Redemption2, one of the rare titles I felt deserved what little free time and attention I had for such a feat. Now, I’ll be attempting to do the same forThe Outer Worlds. It’s a welcome sci-fi RPG that features a single-player campaign rather than a MMO or free-to-play battle royale, and for those of us burned by games likeFallout 76andAnthem, it’s a title that actually lives up to its promises....
