#REVIEW: “THE CROW”

Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong Here is a secret shame I am admitting to, I never saw Brandon Lee’s The Crow until I watched the 4k this year. So with that being said, I had no nostalgic point of reference for its 2024 reboot. When I watched it, I was *not* a fan, so when the advertisements and discourse surfaced around Rupert Sanders directing Bill Skarsgard and FKA twigs in this  retelling, I felt no which way about it. But after seeing this reimagining of the cult classic, I ... Read more

#REVIEW: “BLINK TWICE”

Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong Actors-turned-Directors are often hit or miss and get even more questionable when they also write their directorial debut. However,  there are always exceptions to the rule and Zoe Kravitz gets to join the elite list of Actors-turned-Directors who succeed in crafting a solid directorial debut. For something that is better left not seeing any of the promo materials for, there are a lot of surprises in the Movie and a twist that is slightly predictable ... Read more

#REVIEW: “STRANGE DARLING”

Review by Amanda Gilmore for Mr. Will Wong Strange Darling is the greatest Horror-Thriller of the year. Writer-Director J.T. Mollner has crafted an audacious and wickedly fun ride that plays with audiences’ expectations resulting in twists and surprises at every turn. We open with a prologue that visually mirrors 1974's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. With the same tone, the voice-over reads the words as they move like credits on the screen. We learn in Oregon between 2018 and 2020 a serial ... Read more

#REVIEW: “ALIEN: ROMULUS”

Review by Nicholas Porteous for Mr. Will Wong In a distant and terrible future, a ragtag team of space outcasts board an abandoned ship to scavenge sleep pods so they can chart a course to the nearest, supposedly much more habitable planet. But in the process, they awaken the suckiest, speediest facehuggers since Aliens. This is Alien: Romulus, a back-to-basics Creature Feature that positions itself smack dab in between the events of beloved Sci-Fi masterpieces Alien and Aliens, borrowing ... Read more

#REVIEW: “THIS ENDS WITH US”

Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong There are movies which target specific demographics, and they usually work within those demographics. I would like to consider myself part of the demographic that enjoys a good Romance that hits all the right notes, and maybe a little trouble thrown into the mix.  It Ends With Us is bit of a cross between J-Lo’s Enough and a Nicholas Sparks movie. It deals with some very sensitive subject matter, in a nearly non- delicate way. The Movie focuses on ... Read more

#REVIEW: “BORDERLANDS”

By Mr. Will Wong Fans of the Gearbox Software video game BORDERLANDS should be excited about its star-studded fillm adaptation, but it might be expecting a bit much of the general moviegoing public that knows little about the source material to be invested. Set in a future dystopian society - Pandora - Eli Roth's BORDERLANDS is a raucous, chaotic ride with a bit of heart at its central story.  This Film centers on Lilith (Cate Blanchett), a tough outlaw and bounty hunter, who's tasked with ...

#REVIEW: “THE INSTIGATORS”

Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong The big thing that The Instigators has going for it, is the fact that Director Doug Liman (Road House, Edge of Tomorrow) knows well how to direct Action. Mostly, that is where the excitement for the Movie ends, which is disappointing considering its pedigree and A-list talent. And trust me, we love a good Heist movie, great set pieces and action sequences.  We just expected more. The Film focuses on two 'numbskulls' Rory and Cobby  (Matt Damon and ... Read more
