Allegiant Movie Review: Allied to Mediocre Sci-Fi

Watching theDivergentmovies is like watching a loveless marriage between ideas and execution that will never truly come together.

Avengers Endgame Will Hawkeye's Daughter Take Over Her Father's Role?

(Spoilersahead forAvengers: Infinity WarandCaptain Marvel.) There’s not a ton of new footage in the recently postedAvengers: Endgametrailer, but what’s present is there for a reason.

Better Call Saul Season 2 Finale Recap

Let’s start by stating for the record thatBetter Call Saul’s second season has already established itself as one of the year’s best. It was not only an incredible acting showcase (I named three of its stars asTV Performers of the Week), but it improved upon its first season by not hingeing on absurdist plot points (though it did briefly at the beginning with Mike’s client). Instead, it was a breathtaking character study that found an unexpected hero not in Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) but in his co-worker and eventual romantic partner, Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn)....
