The Batman, a reboot of DC comics’ most popular character, brings the franchise back into the shadows successfully embraced by Christopher Nolan’s phenomenally popular take but without the fetishism of the Burton/Schumacher years or the excess...

It is said that films are not made about fully functional families because their stories are inherently uninteresting. The Boys Are Back shows that dysfunction doesn't necessarily equate to compelling. There's nothing terribly wrong with this lei...

Let Me In is the English-language remake of the 2008 Swedish film Let the Right One In. From the beginning, there has been controversy associated with the "Hollywood-ization" of an edgy, ambiguous vampire tale because many die-hard adherents belie...
