The more accustomed we become to this interpretation of life at the dawn of humanity, the less alien it seems – an examination of an ancient culture with unfamiliar customs and morals.

U.S. Home Release Date: 2024-02-06

Issues about the current relevance of the dialogue aside, the presentation offers a clinic in the importance of the non-verbal aspects of filmmaking.

Reminds viewers that the boardroom game can be as tense, unpredictable, and exhilarating as the one on the court.

Run Time: 2:01
U.S. Home Release Date: 2023-08-15
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity)
Genre: Drama
Director: Matt Johnson
Cast: Jay Baruchel, Glenn Howerton, Matt Johnson, Rich Sommer, Michael Ironside, Martin Donovan, Cary Elwes

A classic rags-to-riches-to-rags story; a feel-good tale that transforms into a meditation on arrogance and neglect.

A far cry from the fantastic majesty of the Tolkien-based epics but has the feel of something that could spawn an enduring franchise if it catches on.

Run Time: 2:09
U.S. Home Release Date: 2023-05-30
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content, Drugs Use/Addiction)
Genre: Drama
Director: Zach Braff
Cast: Florence Pugh, Morgan Freeman, Celeste O’Connor, Molly Shannon, Chinaza Uche

The participation of Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman, both in top form, transforms this from a middling weeper into a deeply felt meditation about the ravages of drug addiction.

By delivering the expected and doing so with style and intensity, it lands in the top tier of the nine "Rocky" universe movies.
