crime… Movie #70 2021: Primal Fear (1996) 18 Mar 202126 Feb 2021 Primal Fear. What an utterly basic, bland title for a film. In all honesty, it doesn’t even relate to anything that goes on within this movie either. What I’m asking…
Awards Season… Movie #66 2021: Promising Young Woman (2020) 14 Mar 202125 Feb 2021 You know that phrase ‘anxiety-inducing cinema’? If this movie doesn’t embody that phrase, I don’t know what does. Promising Young Woman is written, produced and directed by first-time feature film…

crime… Movie #29 2021: Taking Lives (2004) 4 Feb 202127 Jan 2021 Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie. A murder mystery. Sounds great, right? Taking Lives is the 2004 effort from director D.J. Caruso (Disturbia, I Am Number Four), and is basically your…
