SIFF Film Review – Sword of Trust

July 25th, 2019 | POSTED BY Adelaide Blair

The opening film for this year’s Seattle International Film Festival was Sword of Trust, directed by Seattle native Lynn Shelton. It’s the story of how pawnshop owner Mel (Marc Maron) receives an opportunity to make some big bucks, and how that opportunity gets real, real…

Film Review – Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

July 25th, 2019 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Writer/director Quentin Tarantino’s latest film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) is arguably one of his most affectionate undertakings. It’s a loving tribute to 1960s Los Angeles – not so much the one that actually existed but the one that resides in Tarantino’s memory.…

Film Review – The Art of Self-Defense

July 18th, 2019 | POSTED BY Nick Ahlers

The opening scene of Riley Stearn‘s uber-black comedy The Art of Self-Defense masterfully establishes the film’s tone from the outset. Casey Davies (Jesse Eisenberg) sits by himself at a restaurant as a French-speaking couple in the booth across brutally mock him in their native tongue.…

Film Review – The Lion King (2019)

July 18th, 2019 | POSTED BY Sarah Ksiazek

Excited was an understatement when I saw the first poster and trailer for The Lion King (2019).  The CGI looked amazing, and it brought back nostalgia from the original animated film in 1994 which released when I was in high school.  With Disney seemingly given…

Film Review – Stuber

July 11th, 2019 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

I’ll say this much: Stuber (2019) did make me laugh…occasionally. The setup is your classic odd couple pairing, in which two completely separate personalities – this time being Kumail Nanjiani and Dave Bautista – are forced to work together for a single goal. On paper,…

Just a couple of months separated from the release of Avengers: Endgame, we’re back to pick up the pieces in a Starkless world through the prism of our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Far from Home. Not that he’s particularly interested in being our tour…

Film Review – Midsommar

July 1st, 2019 | POSTED BY Sarah Ksiazek

Writer/director Ari Aster’s first feature film, Hereditary, was a breakout hit and solidified him as a budding master of breathing new life to the horror genre. Given his success for Hereditary, the hopes are high for his second film, Midsommar. In blunt terms, Midsommar is…

Film Review – Yesterday

June 27th, 2019 | POSTED BY Nick Ahlers

We all know Biff Tannen is a butthead, but can’t we at least admit his stealing of a sports almanac in the future to enhance his present is innately enticing? To be the only one on earth with information guaranteed to bring you fame and…
