Bombshell (2019)

Bombshell is a somewhat loose recounting of the toxic, cultish, and highly sexist atmosphere that permeated Fox News under the tenure of their CEO, Roger Ailes. Most of the events that take place in...

Aquaman (2018)

Aquaman follows in the path of Wonder Woman by going back to give an already established character in the DCEU an origin film. It’s not nearly as enjoyable as Wonder Woman though, putting more of its emphasis...
