The superior director’s cut of a superhero flop

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic April 8, 2021

If I’m being completely honest with everyone reading, this is not a review that I ever imagined I would be writing. However, the past year has taught me that literally anything is possible, and I’m...

Despite the craziest year in decades, the Oscars will still be held on April 25.

What the Oscars got wrong

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic April 8, 2021

On March 15, the Oscar nominations were announced, and thanks to incredibly good timing, I was able to get up early and react to them as they happened. Despite the minimal amount of movies that were released...

Now that 2020 has finally ended (thank all things holy), it’s finally time to talk about my most anticipated movies of 2021. Usually, what I do with these types of articles is talk about every movie...

The ever-elusive perfect movie

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic December 10, 2020

In my last review, I remarked on the absence of decent-to-good movies that are being released. Thanks to the pandemic, every promising movie aside from “Tenet” and “Wonder Woman 1984” were pushed...

Fincher’s triumphant return to filmmaking

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic December 10, 2020

Before turning on “Mank”, several thoughts flew through my head: This is David Fincher’s first movie in six years. It has Gary Oldman. It’s black-and-white. This has to be good. Right? “Mank”...

Another average horror movie

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic November 23, 2020

As lackluster as this year has been, the same question has been bouncing around my mind ever since movie theaters reopened: Would it kill Hollywood to actually get back to releasing good movies? “Come...

Old War, New Rules

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic October 29, 2020

Most Anticipated Movies of 2020

Peyton Berry, Staff Critic October 27, 2020

Back in January, when I compiled my list of the Best Movies of 2019, I expressed my hope that 2020 would be a better year. I was wrong. 2020 has been one life-altering disaster after the other, and at...

Who’s In, Who’s Out

PeytonB, Staff Reporter February 20, 2020

So, the Oscar nominations came out on Monday. Unfortunately, like all of us, I was stuck in school at the time of the announcements, but I was able to stay away from social media for the whole day so I...

101 Minutes of Absolute Torture

Peyton Berry, Staff Reporter February 20, 2020

Normally, I would say that after a month of Oscars hopefuls and massive blockbusters, it’s nice to start the year off with a sub-par movie. This is the one year that doesn’t quite fit that bill, it...
