Mark Hamill Teases Possible Turn To The Dark Side For Luke In The Last Jedi

At long last, Disney and Lucasfilm have pulled the lid back on Star Wars: The Last Jedi, delivering the film's first teaser trailer this weekend at Celebration Orlando. While it was light on plot details, as expected, there was one particular moment that's got everyone talking. It comes right at the end of the preview, when Luke utters the line, "It's time for the Jedi to end." Cue fans around the world losing their collective minds.

The Unknown Girl Review [Cannes 2016]

Personal Shopper Review [Cannes 2016]

Even though it's oblique, Personal Shopper is affecting, singular and a great showcase for Kristen Stewart.

Loving Review [Cannes 2016]

Loving has Jeff Nichols' trademarks but it lacks the nuanced storytelling that made his previous films so successful.

American Honey [Cannes 2016]

Redundant, far too long and stylistically misconceived, American Honey is a disappointing turn for Andrea Arnold and another bad movie from Shia LaBeouf.

Toni Erdmann Review [Cannes 2016]

With a perfect balance of heart and humor, Toni Erdmann transcends its clichéd premise, becoming one of the most tragic comedies of the decade so far.

Danny Collins Review

Danny Collins breaks away from its Lifetime movie trappings thanks to the way it toys with cliches and a number of touching performances from a cast led by a superb Al Pacino.

A good movie is like a restaurant that serves quality food and lots of it. You can gorge yourself and there will still be plenty to take home. Some of my most distinct movie memories aren’t from watching films but talking about them afterwards. Cinema brings diverse people into a single place for a communal experience. That’s why when you watch a movie by yourself at home you miss out on half of the pleasure of cinema. If a movie is really good or really bad, at least there is always something to say. Like after the screening of last year’s most subversive film, The Lego Movie, I spent an hour discussing it with another film critic friend. Or after Michael Bay’s artless and disgusting Pain & Gain, I nearly lost my voice from shouting at someone who really liked the movie. Daniel Benmayor’s Tracers, which stars Taylor Lautner of Twilight fame, offers no such pleasures. I suspect audiences immediately forget the film after viewing it and the weather will be the most pressing topic of conversation.

Accidental Love Review

The institutions of society (such as government, religion, sports organizations, charities) and people (like athletes, politicians, priests, workers) are all broken but somehow they seem to be able to function even if there is a significant amount of corruption. By the use of satire Accidental Love shows some of the absurd aspects of society.
