D.C.’s Take: “A Quiet Place”

 - 

Imag­ine if you were in the world of re­cent thriller “A Quiet Place.” You have to stay silent in every­thing you do in or­der to keep your­self and oth­ers alive. I don’t know about you, but as some­one who nor­mally does­n’t say that much, stay­ing quiet to not at­trac... More »

D.C.’s Take: “Ready Player One”

 - 

I wish I was born in the 1980s. Whether it’s with film or mu­sic, I do ap­pre­ci­ate what that decade has to of­fer. But can an en­tire movie, helmed by a ge­nius film­maker, han­dle all that great­ness? I think it can. The highly an­tic­i­pated fan­tasy ad­ven­ture “Ready Pl... More »

D.C.’s Take: “Love, Si­mon”

 - 

If you take a look back at the films in the com­ing-of-age genre, there haven’t been a lot rep­re­sent­ing the gay com­mu­nity, let alone a wide re­lease that is­n’t of­fen­sive in some way, shape or form. We just had one of my fa­vorite movies of last year, “Call Me by ... More »

D.C.’s Take: “A Wrin­kle In Time”

 - 

As I was watch­ing Dis­ney’s lat­est fan­tasy film “A Wrin­kle in Time,” there was a part of me think­ing this was­n’t go­ing to end up in what I like to call the “Live-Ac­tion Dis­ney Big-Bud­get Bar­rel.” That’s the do­main of Dis­ney movies that, de­spite their huge budge... More »

D.C.’s Take: ‘Game Night’

 - 

Any typ­i­cal night spent hang­ing out with your friends may in­volve drink­ing, mean­ing­ful con­ver­sa­tions and play­ing fun games like cha­rades or Pic­tionary, to name just a cou­ple. And, of course, make sure noth­ing goes wrong dur­ing the night, oth­er­wise, just like t... More »

D.C.’s Take: “Black Pan­ther”

 - 

Just like last year, 2018 is go­ing to be a huge year for comic book movies. And when you think about it, it’s shock­ing that we never had a comic book fo­cus­ing on Stan Lee and Jack Kir­by’s cre­ation Black Pan­ther. If “Black Pan­ther” does­n’t get peo­ple ex­cited, I... More »

D.C.’s Take: “The Clover­field Para­dox”

 - 

If you were watch­ing Su­per Bowl LII, you prob­a­bly watched a quick TV spot from Net­flix for the next film in the un­ex­pected “Clover­field” fran­chise. “The Clover­field Para­dox” was avail­able for stream­ing on Net­flix right af­ter the game. I can say that’s prob­a­bly... More »

D.C.’s Top 12 of 2017!

 - 

Rem­i­nisc­ing about the best movies of the year is a joy­ous oc­ca­sion, just think­ing about the ones that stood out the most and won’t be for­got­ten when the year ends. 2017 was­n’t ex­actly the best year in the world, but a bright spot for me is go­ing to the the­ater... More »

D.C.’s Take: “Won­der”

 - 

Never did I think this year would have mul­ti­ple movies that have the word “won­der” in the ti­tle. We al­ready know “Won­der Woman” was ba­si­cally a mas­ter­piece, but the new fam­ily film “Won­der” takes the word to new heights. Based on the New York Times best­seller,... More »

D.C.’s Take: “Lady Bird”

 - 

Greta Ger­wig has al­ways been a very un­der­rated ac­tress, es­pe­cially for her work in in­die films such as “Frances Ha” or “20th Cen­tury Women.” She’s also the type of girl you just want to have cof­fee with and just talk about…re­ally, any­thing cool. But now, she’s... More »
