‘An American Pickle’ Review: A Clumsy But Sweet Story About Family, Friendship, And Pickles By Chris Evangelista/Aug. 3, 2020 8:00 am EST For all its occasional bursts of fleeting beauty, the world is an inherently lonely place. And even those who prefer to remain loners can, on occasion, seek out the warmth of connection, however brief or fleeting.

Doctor Who Season 12 Adds Three Female Writers And Two Female Directors

‘Doctor Who’ Season 12 Adds Three Female Writers And Two Female Directors By Hoai-Tran Bui/Nov. 15, 2019 11:30 am EST Doctor Who is the longest-running sci-fi show in history, but it’s only in the past few years that the BBC series started to diversify behind the scenes. The 56-year-old series has long been criticized for its lack of female writers and directors — though it should be noted that it was a female producer that helped bring the show to life — but new showrunner Chris Chibnall has made it his mission to bring more women on board the TARDIS....

‘Harley Quinn’ Review: DC Universe’s New Animated Series Is Funny, Violent, And Very R-Rated By Chris Evangelista/Nov. 22, 2019 9:00 am EST Finally, here’s a good reason to watch DC Universe. The DC streaming service hasn’t exactly set the world on fire with its quality, and it made the most headlines when it canceled Swamp Thing almost immediately, even before the entire first season had streamed in full.

Hunters Trailer Nazi Hunter Al Pacino Wants You To Choose Between Light And Darkness

‘Hunters’ Trailer: Nazi Hunter Al Pacino Wants You To Choose Between Light And Darkness By Chris Evangelista/Nov. 21, 2019 10:30 am EST Put this one on your “Most Anticipated TV of 2020” list. In the Jordan Peele-produced Hunters, Al Pacino leads a team of Nazi hunters in 1977 New York City. That premise alone should sell you on this, but if not, this new trailer should do the trick. It’s mostly just Pacino giving a monologue in a thick accent, but at the last minute, “Street Fighting Man” from The Rolling Stones kicks in, knives come out, and things get very intense....

By Ben Pearson/Jan. 14, 2021 3:30 pm EST Ever since Rosamund Pike’s Oscar-nominated turn as “Amazing” Amy Dunne in David Fincher’s Gone Girl, I’ve been hoping she would step back into the fun, pulpy atmosphere of that kind of thriller again.

‘Watchmen’ Says That “If You Don’t Like My Story, Write Your Own” By Chris Evangelista/Nov. 10, 2019 7:00 pm EST After three stellar episodes in a row, Watchmen stumbles ever so slightly with episode four, “If You Don’t Like My Story, Write Your Own.” That’s not to say this episode is bad.
