By Adam Woodward

This is not a review of Bad Boys for Life. This is a requiem for Bad Boys.

review

By Hannah Strong

Will Smith goes mano-a-mano with his younger self in director Ang Lee’s exhilarating action spectacle.

review

review

By Elena Lazic

review

By Adam Woodward

DC’s freak show rodeo is an undercooked, cartoonish romp that reveals a great deal about modern moviemaking.

review
