film criticism by maryann johanson | handcrafted since 1997
There’s plenty of bruising action, but this fantastic slice of comic-book pulp emphasizes the humanity of its immortal heroes. Gina Prince-Bythewood elevates the familiar with emotional authenticity.
I want to live in this movie. I want to crawl inside it and curl up in its lap and stay there forever.
Here are the few films coming in 2014 that are not sequels, remakes, reboots, or based on a stage show, the Bible, young-adult novels, comic books, cartoons, or — someone make it stop — toy lines.
Someone appears to believe they can control the dialogue about this film. Too late! People are already talking about it.
Honestly. That’s Tom Hiddleston, arriving for the Cult Gala screening of Jim Jarmusch’s Only Lovers Left Alive.
I’m hyperventilating from the array of overwhelming movie awesomeness before me.
