Film Review – The Invite
After the psychological mystery/thriller that was Don’t Worry Darling (2022), Olivia Wilde’s immediate directorial follow up – The Invite (2026) – takes a complete 180-degree turn.

Film Review – Seven Snipers
There’s something to be said about films that get right down to business. Instead of mucking about with unnecessary exposition, character development, or world building, it gets right to the action because it knows that is what we are expecting. There’s a time and place…
