A Art Tv Review

 Gareth Edwards returns to his roots with The Creator, an $80 million sci-fi extravaganza that has more in common with his $500,000 debut Monsters than even his other two blockbusters, Godzilla and Rogue One. Although has a much bigger budget than Monsters, what this new feature shares, in addition to a real visual invention, is a strong sociopolitical handling, a Trojan horse through an action movie veneer. The Creator is a futuristic thriller about an American special forces agent, Joshua (Tenet star John David Washington, continually proving his leading man credentials), who is outfitted at a post in New Asia (an area imagined as a unit among several Asian countries). when a war is fought between the United States and advanced artificial intelligence. In his quest to put an end to it, he becomes involved in the life of robot scientist Maya (Gemma Chan). Their relationship manifests as true love, and she is imminently expecting a child when she begins the film. Director: Gareth Edwar

In his astonishing 2012 film, “Our Children,” Belgian screenwriter and director Joachim Lafosse turned an unthinkable real-life tragedy: the story of a mentally ill mother who, on a previously normal afternoon, single-handedly murdered her five children, in a deeply compassionate film, which does not focus on the gruesome what of the event, but on its most intimate and least discussed whys.  That approach again serves Lafosse well in “A Silence,” another solemn and disturbing domestic chamber piece that lightly fictionalizes and foregrounds the thorny, hidden family tensions behind a headline-making scandal. In this case, it's one disturbing, high-profile court case that begets another, both connected by different forms of patriarchal abuse, but Lafosse's interests lie, as always, less in procedural formalities than in unruly domestic turmoil. Director: Joachim Lafosse Writers: Chloé Duponchelle, Paul Ismael, Joachim Lafosse Stars: Daniel Auteuil, Laurent Bozzi, Emmanuelle Devo

The first group of applicants is made up of eight single guys, all between 30 and 50 years old (Nivea, Braxton and Lozada are between 40 and 40 years old). The first night, everyone mingles at a cocktail party wearing masks, so no one judges anyone by their appearance. Once the masks are removed, the Queens are tasked with asking two of the men out. That leaves two men on the sidelines, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're out of luck. During two-on-one dates the next day, the Queens dictate the activity: Nivea wants to be fed foods with aphrodisiac qualities, Tamar asks her boys to decorate a cake based on her vibe, and Evelyn asks her men to paint his portrait. . Each of them has individual time with their two dates. Stars: Holly Robinson Peete, Tamar Braxton, Rodney Peete After those dates, the Queens decide which of the eight singles, whether they attended the dates or not, are the most insecure. They then have to go to an "elimination dinner", where they can

 When professional truck racer Roger (Thiago Martins) loses his father in an accident, he has to turn to a life of crime to pay off all of his father's debts while keeping his team employed on the Brazilian Netflix original film Overhaul (Maximum Load). , directed by Tomás Portella and written by Leandro Soares. The film starts off rather unintelligibly, but as things get worse and more dangerous for Roger, some initially wayward elements eventually end up in mediocrity. The first half hour of Overhaul is basically one long montage where anything potentially interesting about racing or robbing is cut into such small pieces that it loses all luster. It attempts to use classic heist editing with quick clips to create excitement in both Roger's running and heisting lives, but instead completely eliminates all characterization. At least, from the protagonist. The bad guys are all your run-of-the-mill cartoons, so they're easy to understand instantly. Director: Tomas Portella Wr

 In 2023, Netflix released a sequel to the 2019 French film Street Flow called “Street Flow 2.” This new film continues the story of the Traore family, two years after the first film.

 In late 2020 and January 2021, a motley crew of small investors, loosely led by a nerdy YouTuber and a Reddit poster calling themselves Roaring Kitty, gave the Wall Street elite an emphatic poke in the eye. An avalanche of money and a frenzy on the shares of GameStop (a struggling American video game store chain) inflated the value of the shares, with brutal consequences for several billionaire hedge funds. It was announced as a counterattack to the cynical practice of short selling (essentially when a trader bets on the downfall of a business) and as an event that heralded the democratization of the stock market, until now an industry strongly strengthened and controlled by the far-right. -Rich and ultra privileged. Now, director Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya, Cruella) takes on the subject with a vigorous, ripped-from-the-headlines docufiction starring an affable Paul Dano as Keith Gill, aka Roaring Kitty. There's a lively bustle to Dumb Money, which successfully brings together a ho

 The idea behind Dan Harmon's latest animated series is that it can take a while to build a civilization when there are a lot of competing interests, egos, and messy humans involved. It's apt territory to explore considering how long it took for Krapopolis to be built and aired. Harmon signed a deal with Fox in 2020 to create a new animated series and the premiere has since been delayed several times. Interestingly, despite the constant setbacks, Fox also renewed the show for two more seasons before a single episode aired. That means Fox is confident Krapopolis will be a network staple, and that hope is likely based on the popularity of Harmon's success with Rick and Morty. With that show and Community before it, Harmon gained a following, which is increasingly rare these days, and Fox hopes fans will continue to watch everything Harmon posts. That said, I'm not sure Krapopolis will appeal to fans of Harmon's previous shows. While the series features some of his sig

 Progress against systemic injustice does not occur naturally, but is driven by sheer force of will, often by a radical visionary. In the case of racism in the fashion industry, that person is Bethann Hardison. A pioneering model in the 1970s, she became one of the top agents of the 1990s, when she discovered the first male supermodel Tyson Beckford and mentored Naomi Campbell and Iman. When fickle trends threatened to erase all of her hard work in the '20s, she boldly called out the industry's blatantly racist casting practices, sparking seismic change once and for all. Hardison's remarkable and fabulous life serves as an inspiring lesson in how to achieve radical change from within the system, and her methods can be studied thanks to the fascinating new documentary "Invisible Beauty." Directors: Bethann Hardison, Frédéric Tcheng Writers: Bethann Hardison, Frédéric Tcheng Stars: Tyson Beckford, Stephen Burrows, Naomi Campbell Hardison serves as co-writer and dire

September is the time to say goodbye to teenagers and begin new chapters in their wonderfully energetic lives. The powers that be decided not to offer us any respite in this sad process and dropped the departure of Otis, Eric, Maeve, Aimee, Adam and the rest of the Moordale gang into the emotional mix of the fourth and final series of Sex Education. It's not like they're the Moordale gang anymore. The old school site has been sold to developers and we join them as Maeve (Emma Mackey) starts her writing course at Wallace University in the US, Adam (Connor Swindells) starts a new job at a local stable and Otis (Asa Butterfield), Eric (Ncuti Gatwa) and Aimee (Aimee Lou Wood) take their A levels and their angst to Cavendish College. This is an impeccably woke and safe student-run space, which is nice for the students, but less rewarding for viewers because it transforms the series into what feels like one big box-ticking enterprise. Creator: Laurie Nunn Stars: Asa Butterfield, Emma

 Showtime's four-part Supreme Court docuseries, Deadlocked: How America Shaped the Supreme Court, will premiere its first episode on September 22, amid a period of intense concern about the impact and integrity of the high court. From director Dawn Porter, the project delves into the court's modern era, reaching back to Earl Warren's court of the 1950s and '60s, when the justices established a series of landmark progressive precedents, to the present day, with the conservative majority tearing down the right to abortion. and affirmative action. With it has come growing distrust of the court itself, as well as internal intrigue given last year's unprecedented leak of the Dobbs abortion decision. "I wanted people to understand how the court works," Porter told Deadline. “…You don't pay attention until something you love is gone, until a right you hold dear has been revoked. So I felt like it would be good to contribute to this conversation. News is impor

 Max's Young Love is a delightfully charming animated series. Through its intelligent writing and strong comedic timing, it offers a humorous and often poignant depiction of a modern African-American family. Although its reserved handling of some mature themes prevents Young Love from living up to its impressive predecessor, Matthew A. Cherry's Oscar-winning short "Hair Love," it still manages to be one of the most entertaining animated offerings from Max. “Hair Love” presented an uplifting portrait of black fatherhood: When Stephen's girlfriend Angela (Issa Rae) was diagnosed with cancer, it was his turn to style her daughter Zuri's hair. The resulting struggle to tame his natural curls acts as a means to dispel negative stereotypes of absent fathers; It also reinforced the cultural importance of taking care of your hair. As a spin-off of “Hair Love,” Young Love does an admirable job of expanding on these and other positive notions through the continuation of

 Murder mystery dramas have to be one of the most interesting genres out there. These stories, if presented well, allow the audience to open their minds and be insightful about the options and paths a murder investigation could take. A poorly crafted murder mystery can fall apart very quickly. Hard Broken, a Lebanese Netflix original, is the latter type. This murder mystery drama is an investigation into the violent death of a young, successful doctor. Directed by Elie F. Habib, the show was released on the streaming platform on September 20, 2023. Hard Broken, a six-episode miniseries, follows the murder of a young doctor named Yasmine in the presence of her husband Adam, after which the killer has been on the run ever since. The killer also left the crime scene in her expensive car, leaving Yasmine to die. Although Adam barely survived the ambush, Yasmine's death leads to a full-fledged investigation by the local police to discover if this was a robbery gone wrong or if her death

On the spookiest day of all, Halloween, we were blessed with the release of Kengan Ashura part 2 on Netflix. This new season brings action-packed fight scenes, a deeper look at the show's many supporting characters, as well as plenty of interactions between them. If you were a fan of the first part that came out earlier this year, you will definitely be a fan of this new part.  Don't worry, there won't be any spoilers for this season, but there will be spoilers for the first, so if you haven't watched part 1 yet, my short review is that you definitely should. Also note that I haven't read the Kengan Ashura manga (yes, I'm normal), so I won't be able to compare and won't notice any changes made, this is strictly moving pictures. version! Stars: Tatsuhisa Suzuki, Chô, Yoshitsugu Matsuoka They've really improved the character interactions in this new season, and many of the friendlier side characters have interactions with each other that have a lot of

Still Up is a wonderful new series that follows the nighttime adventures of best friends Danny (Craig Roberts) and Lisa (Antonia Thomas). It's entertainment for all the raging insomniacs out there: people with terrible sleep patterns, those who stay up all night and can't find relief in rest.  The premise follows the best friends through late-night phone calls, a new take on the all-too-common friends-to-lovers trope. It is a romantic comedy full of crazy adventures that can only happen in the middle of the night, far from prying eyes, starring extravagant characters that can only be met once in a lifetime and impulsive decisions that can only be made in the dark. Creators: Steven Burge, Natalie Walter Stars: Antonia Thomas, Craig Roberts, Blake Harrison As the series progresses, the friendship between Danny and Lisa deepens into something more, with hints of their romantic compatibility scattered earlier. The script uses jealousy and indifferent boyfriends to further elucidate

 After four films and just over a billion dollars at the box office, it's easy to forget that "John Wick" wasn't supposed to be a franchise. The first film was sold as a revenge fantasy for “Marley & Me” fans who couldn't settle for a good cry. Its budget was modest, it accommodated a star that the industry considered in decline and co-directors with more experience behind the wheel than in front of a camera.  Even movie revenues, rather than adding up to the kind of bills that make studio bosses spin, were only considered above average. However, in each subsequent sequel the popularity of the armed widower skyrocketed. As more and more bodies fell to the ground, more and more dollars filled Lionsgate's coffers. John Wick's journey from obscurity to omnipresence was so unexpected that the third film functioned as a particularly morbid metaphor for dealing with newfound fame. Creators: Greg Coolidge, Shawn Simmons, Kirk Ward Stars: Mel Gibson, Colin Woo

 When queer, genre-bending hip hop artist Lil Nas When the music download service emerged, he converted the physical format to digital. Since then, music has been waiting for a totally viral music star. In 2019, “Old Town Road” and “Panini” became huge hits. But the pandemic made it impossible to travel through those worms. So, amid lockdowns, masking, and a vaccine, the rapper released his debut album “Montero,” spawning even more chart-topping singles. In fact, for three years, Lil Nas “Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero,” a sparsely composed, hagiographic concert documentary, follows the artist on his debut tour. Directors Carlos López Estrada (“Blindspotting”) and Zac Manuel (“Descendant”) would be expected to focus on the nerves the rapper must feel when becoming a live act and the responsibility and journey he experiences as a man gay black in a hypermasculine world. gender. While the film attempts to cover those topics, the result is simply broad and rarely reveals any further details

 What do classic horror films like Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre have in common with newer classic horror films like The Silence of the Lambs, House of 1000 Corpses, and The Devil's Rejects? Ed Gein's terrifying actions inspired these films and many more. Very few murderers in history have been the inspiration for such nightmares.  MGM+ has released a four-part documentary about Ed Gein and his effect on society, community, and culture called Psycho: The Lost Tapes of Ed Gein. This documentary is a much deeper dive into the life and story of this troubled man, along with never-before-heard tapes, including commentary from experts, historians, and community members who knew Gein. The docuseries, directed by James Buddy Day, is also known for the series Catching a Serial Killer: Bruce McArthur (2021) and The Shocking Truth (2017). Additionally, Day served as executive producer. Released on September 17, 2023, Pyramid Productions and Roots Productions produced it. Stars:
