From *Cannibal Holocaust* to *Anaconda* and *The Green Inferno*, genre cinema has maintained a highly fraught relationship with the Amazon rainforest. While *Beware Boiúna*’s portrayal of the South American jungle and its indigenous peoples is not without stereotypes, this fast-paced creature feature directed by Mike P. Nelson surprises—both through its attunement to the rhythms of the environment and its complete lack of interest in condescendingly exorcising white guilt. After an opening sequence that sets the stage—showing Amazonian indigenous people confronting illegal gold miners—the film introduces us to the passengers of a boat drifting leisurely along the mighty Amazon: a humanitarian team led by Dr. Miguel (Juan Pablo Shuk) and accompanied by rookie doctors Alli (Jessica Rothe) and Callum (Will Close), who have traveled to the region to provide medical care to underserved populations. When the group crosses paths with Brendan Malloy (Logan Marshall-Green) and his band of unscr...

Before entering an ostrich enclosure, Frank, an animal control officer, slips something into his partner’s back pocket. It’s a stick of beef jerky, and within seconds, Frank is cracking up as the flightless birds chase his hapless colleague.
That’s the general vibe of “Animal Control,” a new sitcom from Fox. Here, “Community” alum Joel McHale plays Frank, an ex-cop who was fired after trying to root out corruption. (This is a clever trick to sidestep the current national conversation about policing: Our complicated protagonist was kicked off the force for being too virtuous.) His partner, a Fred who goes by Shred (Michael Rowland), also came to this particular force through an unconventional path; he’s a former professional snowboarder whose laid-back character suggests that, deep down, he never left the slopes.
Creators: Bob Fisher, Rob Greenberg, Dan Sterling Stars: Joel McHale, Vella Lovell, Michael Rowland
Their relationship is the backbone of “Animal Control,” but that backbone could use some chiropractic help to straighten out. McHale is an actor who has to be careful to fall on the right side of the line between sardonic and caustic; here, he doesn’t quite pull it off, and one wonders if his case for staying on the police force was weakened by being such an annoying guy. A recurring device is Frank yelling at Fred to stop telling corny jokes before he gets his coffee, and while the jokes are certainly dumb, there’s an edge to Frank’s insistence that comes off as off-putting, as if the show is making us feel guilty for wanting to have fun with him.
As Fred, Rowland is an appealing presence, and I also liked Vella Lovell as the pair’s boss. Much of what Animal Control does is, in this show’s narrative, low-stakes and charmingly offbeat, leaving room for workplace comedy scenes that could just as easily be at an elementary school or a paper supplier. That’s why it feels urgent for the show to recalibrate Frank’s character. His jokes are too mean-spirited, his antipathy for Fred is too crafted. We get it: These unlikely companions will end up loving each other. But right now, with Fred in outer space, it seems like an asymmetrical fight — and one in which Frank’s dyspepsia gets a little out of control. Maybe the loudest growls would be best left for the creatures he’s helping.
“Animal Control” premieres Thursday, Feb. 16 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Fox.
The *gayest* anime ever created has saddled up once again, returning with such overflowing authority—atop its steed, clad in haute couture, flashing a gold-toothed grin, and serving up the most gorgeous visuals ever committed to screen—that even the notion of a "return to form" feels astonishingly inadequate. Four years after its predecessor, *Stone Ocean*, closed the long and cyclical book on the original Joestar lineage on Netflix, Part 7 of the acclaimed *JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure*—titled *Steel Ball Run*—bursts forth as a new gospel for its legions of fervent emissaries; a soft reboot of the franchise that carries the DNA of its legendary legacy in its very bones, along with the confidence born of nearly twenty years spent being hailed as one of the greatest manga ever written. The initial hysteria surrounding its premiere—including the immediate convulsions across the internet when, just hours after its release, it dethroned *Frieren* from its comfortable, cushy perch on...
Vinland Saga is set to debut on Netflix and Crunchy Roll early in the new year. In order to get fans excited for the return of their favorite Viking epic anime, an official trailer featuring the ending song has been posted on their website. The trailer is set to LMYK's song “Without Love” and features a brief description that simply reads, “Against Fate: Crawl Cause and Effect. This is no doubt referring to Thorfinn's situation from season 1, as his actions in leaving home and what he did the entire time he was gone will surely have consequences. Vinland Saga Season 2 will stream every Monday at 12:30 p.m. JPT, starting January 9, 2023, with a simulcast on Crunchyroll and Netflix a bit later in the day for the US run. The anime's second year will have 24 episodes, which will likely be split into two 12-episodes. Covering the "prologue" arc of the original manga, the first season of Vinland Saga follows the story of a young Viking warrior named Thorfinn who joins a...
The Paramount series Marshals takes place a few years after the end of season five. Here, we see Kayce Dutton and his teenage son, Tate, living in East Camp after selling his family's Yellowstone Ranch to Broken Rock President Thomas Rainwater. Kayce and Beth, the only surviving children of John Dutton, didn't want the family legacy to fall into the wrong hands, so they decided to return the land to its rightful owners: the Native Americans. It's likely that after selling the land, Beth and her husband, Rip, left Montana, while Kayce, his wife, Monica, and their son, Tate, began a quiet life in East Camp, working as ranchers. Okay, I get it. You want to know what happened to Monica? The first episode revealed that Monica died of cancer a few years ago, but the exact date of her death has not yet been revealed. A brief conversation between Kayce and Rainwater hinted that Monica had chosen a spot in East Camp where she wanted to be buried. I tried to find her death date on he...
