#REVIEW: “UNDERWATER”

Review by George Kozera for Mr. Will Wong Nestled seven miles underneath the ocean’s surface lays a huge deep-sea drilling structure which houses hundreds of workers. As UNDERWATER opens, we see a scantily dressed Norah (a buffed and shorn Kristen Stewart) and hear her spout profound inanities that we, the audience, eventually learn has nothing significant to do with the plot, in a somber voiceover as she tries to rescue a daddy long legs spider from the bathroom sink. Suddenly, all hell ... Read more

#REVIEW: “LIKE A BOSS”

By Mr. Will Wong Borrowing some ideas from the likes of Romy & Michele's High School Reunion and Bridesmaids, Miguel Arteta (The Good Girl, Beatriz at Dinner)  returns with Like a Boss.

#REVIEW: “CATS”

By Mr. Will Wong We are torn how to look at Academy Award winning Director Tom Hooper's CATS, based on Andrew Lloyd Weber's internationally-adored Musical and also T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. On one hand, it is fantastical - a well-intentioned, star-studded, gorgeous-looking spectacle. On the other, it misses the mark its legacy has paved for it. We're certain the legions of fans who adore Cats will find joy at the chance to sing along once again and see its remarkable ...
