Exclusive interview: Lex Scott Davis and Shamier Anderson talk ‘A Lot of Nothing’

Co-writer and director Mo McRae’s feature-length debut A Lot of Nothing aims to spin a lot of plates, and it manages to do so in a style that finds the actor and filmmaker establishing himself as a talent well worth keeping an eye on.

The story finds Y’lan Noel and Cleopatra Coleman starring as James and Vanessa, a seemingly perfect couple who end up caught in a night they’ll never forget. After watching a news report on a police shooting, the pair discover that their neighbor (as played by Justin Hartley) was involved, and they try to figure out what to do about it.

Like clockwork, ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ gets admitted to the ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’ school of criticism

One of the most predictable developments that comes attached to any popular movie is that in the aftermath of its theatrical release, the tide will begin to turn. Just like clockwork, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has been getting reappraised as one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s biggest disappointments ever since it came to Disney Plus.

While there’s no harm in not enjoying every single feature or streaming series the franchise puts out there, it’s nonetheless interesting to see how perception can shift on a dime. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder almost instantly saw their reputations take a battering once the dust had settled on their big screen runs, whereas Eternals only continues to grow in popularity.

An Oscar-winning dark fantasy that got a reboot instead of a sequel inherits a fresh wave of admiration

The first two decades of the 21st Century were defined by the colossal number of YA literary adaptations being thrown into multiplexes with reckless abandon, with the misses dramatically outnumbering the hits. Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events was one of the small exceptions to the rule, though, but still didn’t get a money-spinning franchise to call its own.

On paper, there weren’t many reasons not to carry on telling the story on the big screen, and with 13 source novels to choose from, there was hardly a shortage of content, either. And yet, despite earning $211 million at the box office, landing strong reviews from critics and an enthusiastic reception from audiences, as well as winning an Academy Award for Best Makeup from four nominations in total, it simply wasn’t to be.

The worst-reviewed superhero movie in the history of cinema heads once more into the breach on Netflix

Taste and personal preference is entirely subjective, but it’s hard to argue with facts. As the most popular genre in cinema, superhero stories continue to divide opinion and ignite discussion, but not a single one of them has fared worse in terms of reviews than 2006’s Zoom.

A Rotten Tomatoes score of only four percent gives it the unwanted distinction of being the lowest-rated comic book adaptation of all-time on the aggregation site. That means Tim Allen’s dismal return to action as the title hero is held in lower esteem than Morbius, Josh Trank’s Fantastic Four, Jonah Hex, Halle Berry’s Catwoman, and even Son of the Mask, which is probably the most galling of all.

A deranged R-rated martial arts fantasy epic survives a deadly betrayal on Disney Plus

Thanks to Disney’s increased stake in Hulu and acquisition of 20th Century Fox, the Mouse House’s streaming service is becoming a hotbed of R-rated content from Hollywood’s past and present, but it’s Chinese fantasy epic True Legend that’s become the latest unexpected breakout success on the most family-friendly platform of them all.

As per FlixPatrol, legendary stunt coordinator and filmmaker Yuen Woo-ping’s extravagant martial arts fantasy has been going down a storm with subscribers, having ascended onto the Disney Plus global most-watched list. A reasonably-sized success at the time of its initial release in 2010, the hand-to-hand combat is everything you’d expect from the unsung mastermind responsible for choreographing The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill.

Review: ‘The Outwaters’ leads us into the dark and never looks back

In the vast darkness of the Mojave desert, four friends are camped out, preparing to make a music video together. As they sit in their tents and try to get rest, thunderous booms and mysterious ripples of light in the sky disrupt them. Soon enough, they will be gone, consumed by something unknowable and awful in the dark, and their footage will be all that’s left of them.

Such is the premise for Robbie Banfitch’s The Outwaters, a wild descent into hell (or another dimension, perhaps?) that promises to disorient and disquiet the viewer. The film isn’t afraid to march forward hand-in-hand with us into the darkness, no matter how much blood, tears, and screeching there is along the way.

An underrated sequel that aged even better after 3 disastrous failed reboots nukes the Netflix charts

Despite very recent history pointing out no less than three times that it isn’t something general audiences are interested in seeing again, there’s an air of inevitability to yet another Terminator reboot. There’s one small positive, though, and that it’s each failed reinvention of the franchise paints Jonathan Mostow’s underrated Rise of the Machines in a better light.

There was a hefty amount of pressure on the filmmaker heading into the project, which was of course completely understandable when he was tasked with not only following up James Cameron’s back-to-back classics, but doing so after a decade-long absence with the single most expensive production in the history of cinema at the time.

Daisy Ridley refuses to rule out an eventual return to ‘Star Wars’

We’re entirely convinced at this point that George Lucas is a member of X-Men, and his mutant power involves making everything that comes out of his brain into some of the most timeless material in the history of pop culture. Indiana Jones, despite a relative hiccup with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, remains a beloved franchise that will soon meet its swansong later this year with Dial of Destiny, and even Willow, Lucas’ charming-if-mediocre foray into high fantasy, found new life as a Disney Plus series late last year.

We all know that Star Wars dwarfs most pop culture properties in the realm of cultural impact and longevity, and the franchise’s journey has been truly unthinkable; who would have known that a sci-fi epic celebrating heroism and camaraderie would lead to the likes of Andor, The Mandalorian, and Visions?

A key cog in James Gunn’s DCU admits the ‘cool nerd’ picked up a few tricks from Kevin Feige

Now that James Gunn has finally unveiled the DCU’s Chapter 1 – Gods & Monsters to the world, maybe the conspiracy theories claiming that he was a double agent sent undercover by Kevin Feige to tear the competition down from the inside out can be put to rest.

Of course, with the internet being what it is, we’re inclined to believe that it’s not going to happen. At least not yet, anyway. Should Gunn and Peter Safran win over even their most ardent of critics once the film, television, live-action, and animated slate has been released in its entirely, then maybe – just maybe – he won’t be subjected to so much flak on a daily basis.

An outrageous horror comedy sequel might just be a masterpiece for those with the right mindset

If you’re going to craft a sequel to a horror comedy that was so over the top it bordered on the ridiculous, and then slap an even more preposterous suffix onto the end, then there are a set of expectations that demand to be met. For better or worse, Piranha 3DD made the grade and then some.

Alexandre Aja’s remake of the cult favorite upped the ante when it came to sun, sea, sand, sex, and blood, which proved to be a recipe for success after it tore strips off the box office and ended up winning surprising levels of acclaim given its wildly excessive nature and penchant for turning the dial up to 11, then leaving it stuck there.

At least one person thinks Ana de Armas deserves the Best Actress Oscar, which is something

Pedro Almodóvar is a self-professed fan of Andrew Dominik’s incredibly controversial Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde, starring Ana de Armas. After praising her performance back in May of last year, when most of the world had yet to watch and chastise the film, the acclaimed Spanish auteur is doubling down on his love for the actress’ take on the blonde bombshell, following her Oscar nomination.

De Armas’ Oscar nod caused quite the uproar among the film community, not necessarily because of her performance, but because many believe a film like Blonde shouldn’t have been given any kind of recognition. The Netflix picture, based on the eponymous biographical fiction novel by Joyce Carol Oates, has been criticized for offering an exploitative depiction of the Hollywood icon. For Almodóvar however, there is no doubt about it – de Armas deserves the Oscar.

A superior slasher splits opinion on whether it’s overlooked or a firmly established classic

When it comes to some of the internet’s more irritable nuances, there are few more reliable hotbeds than r/horror; the subreddit is rife with clickbait titles, reactionary bait, “unpopular” opinions, “hot” takes, and a general disregard for the sentiment of the community, which can be either a virtue or a vice depending on the subject.

One post recently managed to capture the best and the worst of all of the above by bringing a discussion of The Hitcher to the table. The film, widely panned by critics upon its release in 1986, including some palpably venomous words from Roger Ebert, found new life years later as a cult classic, and while it didn’t quite receive the reappraisal that John Carpenter’s The Thing did, one user has argued that it’s more than deserving of such recognition.
