What’s new, everyone? Apple TV+ has just dropped a movie that mixes WALL-E, Cast Away, Chappie, and Turner & Hooch while taking a route through the buddy road trip genre: Finch, the post-apocalyptic science-fiction flick starring Tom Hanks as eponymous inventor Finch Weinberg, who is trying to survive in a near-future world that was devastated by solar flares leaking through … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Apple TV+’s Finch

2 Cents Critic Podcast – Pixar’s Luca | Directed by Enrico Casarosa
Tune in for Arthur’s opinions on Luca, Pixar’s 24th film (but not before he momentarily digresses at the beginning to touch on his faulty Wi-Fi that had most likely been caused by the Pacific Northwest heat wave, followed by the matter of that garbage bag Bill Cosby being released from prison). Directed by Enrico Casarosa … Continue reading 2 Cents Critic Podcast – Pixar’s Luca | Directed by Enrico Casarosa
2 Cents Critic Podcast – Wonder Woman 1984 | Directed by Patty Jenkins
Tune in for Arthur’s review of Wonder Woman 1984, a movie that he desperately wanted to love to no avail. This bloated and listless DCEU misfire is directed by Patty Jenkins (Monster, 2017’s Wonder Woman) and stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, Kristen Wiig as Barbara Minerva/Cheetah, and Pedro … Continue reading 2 Cents Critic Podcast – Wonder Woman 1984 | Directed by Patty Jenkins

My 2 Cents on Apple TV+’s CODA
What’s new, everyone? After premiering at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival in January, CODA, the family film written and directed by Siân Heder (Netflix’s Tallulah), not only snagged the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award but was also acquired by Apple for $25 million. Having been highly anticipated since then, the film has remained generally beloved … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Apple TV+’s CODA
My 2 Cents on Palm Springs
What’s new, readers? Are you still as shocked as I am that Rudy Giuliani reached into his fun factory in Borat 2? And that Jared Leto will return as the most-hated incarnation of the Joker in the Snyder Cut of Justice League? And that the election is coming up in ten days? I’ve said this over and … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Palm Springs
My 2 Cents on Interstellar
What’s new, readers? Travis Scott recently teased “The Plan,” his theme song for Christopher Nolan’s Tenet. Obviously Nolan is a filmmaking genius, but it helps that he’s a marketing wizard too—casting Harry Styles in Dunkirk to draw in One Direction fans, dropping the Tenet trailer on Fortnite to catch the attention of gamers, and now his collaboration with Scott. The … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Interstellar
My 2 Cents on Hamilton
What’s new, readers? Amazon recently pulled Washington Redskins merchandise from its website, following in the steps of Nike, Target, and Walmart. At the same time, FedEx, Bank of America, and PepsiCo are all leaning on the NFL to change the name. Oh, so now we’re realizing how awful it is to use a racial slur … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Hamilton
My 2 Cents on Disney’s Artemis Fowl
What’s new, readers? I just want to give a huge shout-out to the Gen Z users of TikTok and the K-pop fans who bought up all those seats at Trump's Tulsa rally yesterday. This is fantastic—the young people banding together to make their political voices heard, bring about change, and stand against racism. And it's … Continue reading My 2 Cents on Disney’s Artemis Fowl
