‘Marvelous and the Black Hole’ Review: Appealing Odd-Couple Ode to the Magic of, Well, Magic

Not quite adult enough to be young adult, and not quite a children’s film either, Kate Tsang’s “Marvelous and the Black Hole” is a sweet-natured throwback, the kind of film a parent might wish their young teen would watch, rather than whichever dystopian franchise or fanfic adaptation they’re currently involved with. A set-your-watch-by-it riff on […]

Daniel Dae Kim and Randall Park Are Leading Amazon’s Asian-American Heist Film

Daniel Dae Kim and Randall Park may have played romantic rivals to steal Ali Wong’s heart in Always Be My Maybe, but they’re teaming up to steal something of even more value in an Asian-American heist film for Amazon Studios. The Korean-American hunks are leading an a yet-untitled Asian-American heist film that will be penned […]

‘Desperados’ Review: Here’s the Netflix Rip-Off of ‘Bridesmaids’ and ‘Girls Trip’

While Hollywood has struggled to marry its affection for bombastic big-budget franchises and its audience’s hunger for the mid-budget romantic comedies that fell out of box-office fashion long ago, Netflix picked up the slack and ran with it. But bulking up its robust library of originals with a litany of rom-com offerings — a good […]

‘Love Wedding Repeat’ Review: Netflix Rom-Com Provides the Weakest Timelines

Netflix has had some success with romantic comedies with movies like To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before and Always Be My Maybe, but their latest offering to the genre, Love Wedding Repeat is a total misfire. Devoid of any sentiment other than “Isn’t it funny when people are forced into an awkward situation?” the […]

New ‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Trailer Features a Helping Hand from Keanu Reeves

Keanu Reeves is having a very good year. The latest John Wick is the most successful to date; he had a brilliant cameo in Always Be My Maybe; and he’s apparently a lot of fun voicing action figure Duke Caboom in Toy Story 4. Now Reeves is moving towards video games as the latest trailer […]

Actors playing nightmarish versions of themselves in cinema – ranked!

Keanu Reeves’s cameo in Netflix’s Always Be My Maybe – as himself, yet absolutely ghastly – is a showstopper. But what about those other stars who have parodied themselves on screen?The collision of high and low culture that occurred when Al Pacino appeared as himself in Adam Sandler’s lamentable cross-dressing comedy must have been visible […]

‘Always Be My Maybe’ Review: Netflix Whips up a Rom-Com Classic

The second Always Be My Maybe was over, I immediately wanted to rush online and tell everyone to make time to watch it when it’s released (you can see it on Netflix right now). Nahnatchka Khan’s romantic comedy is arguably the best in the genre in recent memory, which is saying something when you see […]

Film Review: Netflix’s ‘Always Be My Maybe’

Society, and relentless commercial campaigns, constantly bombard women with messages about matrimony: Score a big, sparkly diamond. Obsess over a fancy white dress. And definitely marry your best friend. That latter cliché has been espoused by countless Hollywood comedies, from “My Best Friend’s Wedding” to “Made of Honor,” where one party resorts to outlandish shenanigans […]

How Keanu Reeves Ended Up in Ali Wong, Randall Park’s Romantic Comedy ‘Always Be My Maybe’

“I made Netflix spend all this money on this movie just so that, as a 37-year-old mother of two, I could kiss Daniel Dae Kim and Keanu Reeves,” Ali Wong cracked to Variety at the premiere for her upcoming romantic comedy “Always Be My Maybe.” Her co-star and the third piece to this romantic quadrangle, […]
