Remember being a teenager, and you’d screw up pretty big, and your parents would say “I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed?” That’s the energy I’m bringing into this review ofLove, Victor, the Hulu spin-off of the groundbreaking 2018 gay teen rom-comLove, Simon. Because, while the first season begins with a really intriguing approach to how a spin-off should work, by the end it ultimately fails to rise above the cliches....

We know the names “Kylo Ren”, “Rey”, and “BB-8” as well as we do “Darth Vader”, “Luke Skywalker”, and “R2-D2” even though we haven’t seen the latestStar Warsmovie, and in truth, don’t know much beyond a few superficial details regarding the new characters....

It’s a great time to be in theStephen Kingbusiness. Thanks to 2017’s blockbuster hit,IT, there has been a Hollywood resurgence devoted to giving King’s stories the live-action treatment.

A feature film iteration of the antihero story has been in the works for over half a decade now, withAnchormanandStep BrothersdirectorAdam McKayattached for a long while to bring it to fruition.

Barnum, it would be a more apt description for directorMichael Gracey, who makes an impressive feature debut despite middling songs and a tepid story that only works in the broad strokes of “Acceptance = good, social climbing = bad.” Barnum should be a rich, interesting character, but outside the bounds of a biopic showing the complexities of the entertainer/flimflam man,The Greatest Showmansettles for a borderline hagiography where Barnum is the leader of outcasts who learns to appreciate the family he’s put together rather than aspiring to reach the high society that was denied to him as a child....
