In a post-pandemic culture, we strive for the return of normalcy. Beyond the comfort of familiarity, pop culture returning to its righteous place is an assurance of stability in the world. The film community is apt to throw out the expression, “movies are back,” in this current climate when a film performs well at the box office, and generally speaking, cinephiles long for the days when the movie-going experience was ingrained in the culture....

10 Best Characters in 'Jurassic Park', Ranked

Jurassic Parkis one ofSteven Spielberg’s numerous masterpieces, and there are plenty of reasons why. Just to name a few, there’s Spielberg’s direction, the masterful blend of CGI and practical effects, the story’s themes of Man playing God and manipulating nature, the humor, andJohn Williams’s reliably beautiful score.

Certain anti-war movies, for example, benefit from being anything but simple or straightforward.Come and See, for one example, is an unpredictable and oftentimes bewildering watch, while something likeThe Thin Red Line(also quite anti-war) plays around with chronology to poetic effect. Some other movies – whether anti-war or otherwise –choose to take a more direct approach to depicting war, though, perhaps emphasizing how one’s minor role within a broader conflict can be simple, for better or worse (worse often equates to “tragic,” with lives thrown away on simple yet deadly missions)....

When it wasfirst announcedthatJon Bernthalwould be starring in a reimagining ofPaul Schrader’s sexy ’80s crime dramaAmerican Gigolo, a collective cry went up from a very specific corner of the internet — those fans who have followed his career with great interest since his memorable turn in AMC’sThe Walking Deadfollowed by a redefining interpretation of Frank Castle in Netflix’s Marvel seriesDaredevilandThe Punisher.
