TIFF 2023: Memory Review
Peter Sarsgaard and Jessica Chastain star in Michel Franco's quietly subdued character study, Memory. One of the highlights of TIFF and featuring dynamite performances from two veteran actors, Memory is a compassionate tale of two broken people longing for connection and stability.
Dopesick Review: A Slick, Sick, Must-See Pick
An engrossing and enraging look at the opioid crisis, the A-list ensemble Dopesick is as highly-addictive as the drug its characters peddle to the masses.

Robot & Frank Review
With a story of a grumpy old man learning life lessons and pulling off heists with the help of a robot sounds like a concept that Disney would have come up with circa 1998, Robot & Frank is an incredibly sweet, charming, funny and deeply enjoyable movie that avoids grating sentimentality and builds actual excitement and emotion.
Behold! Wondercon Green Lantern Footage!
Wondercon attendees were treated to an extended trailer for the upcoming Green Lantern film last night. The trailer expands on a number of concepts that I was curious about, namely the setting up of the film's main villain (Parallax?) and introducing us to the Green Lantern Corps in their entirety.
Green Lantern
Trailer Debuts
The first trailer for DC and Warner Bros.' live-action Green Lantern film has hit the web. Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, test pilot and man without fear – or rather man who is able to overcome fear as it was later retconned. The film is being directed by Martin Campbell (GoldenEye, Casino Royale) and also stars Blake Lively, Mark Strong, Peter Sarsgaard and Tim Robbins.
