Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
To be perfectly clear, Godzilla x Kong is 10 pounds of stupid in a 5 pound bag. Taken as a film for intellectual film snobs, it’s trash. Taken as a film that inhabits exactly what the kid in me who … Continue reading

After a somber and frustrating first act, I was surprised and curious to realize I was watching Jim Henson’s Rashomon Babies. A film that unfolds in an elementary school across three different points of view, slowly folding out to reveal … Continue reading
