With its R rating, Kraven the Hunter attempts to carve out a niche in Sony’s Marvel Universe, delivering a few solid and cool kills. However, despite these moments, the film ultimately falls flat, lacking the hilariously terrible tone of Madame Web or the bat-shit insanity of the Venom trilogy. The plot of “Kraven the Hunter” […]

Sony’s Marvel Universe continues to flounder as the Venom trilogy comes to a messy and rushed ending in Venom: The Last Dance. Picking up from the end of Venom: Let There Be Carnage (and Eddie/Venom’s cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home), Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and Venom (also Hardy) are fugitives wanted for the murder […]

The recently released Smile 2 does exactly what a good sequel should: it takes what worked in the first movie and ramps it up to new levels. Naomi Scott takes over the lead role as Skye Riley,  a troubled pop superstar on the verge of starting a big comeback tour.  While trying to get some […]

2019’s Joker was an interesting spin on a classic comic character and a stylish throwback to 70s Scorsese griminess that found its way to an Oscar win for Joaquin Phoenix and over 1 billion dollars at the box office.  Joker: Folie à Deux is one of the most baffling sequels in recent memory. It feels […]

As we get into a cozy fall season, the games we played this month haven’t slowed down the fun.

Check out everything we played this month below.
