I am a wuss. It’s part of my personality. I’m scared of most things and tend to avoid danger at all costs. I’ve always been this way. Had I lived near Action Park, I probably would have avoided it like the plague, but I am also deeply uninteresting. For those that braved the infamous amusement park, they’ve come away with darkly comic tales that fill the majority of Seth Porges and Chris Charles Scott III’s HBO Max documentary Class Action Park. The first hour of the documentary goes ride-by-ride of how people were …

Remember being a teenager, and you'd screw up pretty big, and your parents would say "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed?" That's the energy I'm bringing into this review of Love, Victor, the Hulu spin-off of the groundbreaking 2018 gay teen rom-com Love, Simon. Because, while the first season begins with a really intriguing approach to how a spin-off should work, by the end it ultimately fails to rise above the cliches. Love, Victor begins with the titular letter-writer (Michael Cimino) and his family moving abruptly from their original home in …

The Vast of Night is a mystery that can't sustain itself. It's fine to try and build up to a big reveal, but along the way we need to be invested in more than just "the answer." Unfortunately, the script for The Vast of Night is wholly invested in two teenagers chasing down a mysterious signal, but fails to show interest in their interior lives, their wants, desires, or really any kind of conflict beyond, "Let's find out what this signal means." The film's saving grace is director Andrew Patterson, who gives his low-budget feature …

Blake Lively's character Nancy Adams was put through hell in The Shallows, but it turns out the actress herself didn't come out unscathed.

The Shallows, from director Jaume Collet-Serra, brought the killer shark movie back in a big way, but didn't rely on blood and gore to terrify.

The Shallows was one of the best shark horror movies in years, but it still took the time out to pay tribute to Jaws by recreating a classic scene.

2016 hit The Shallows showcased a gripping battle of wills between Blake Lively's Nancy and a great white shark, at least until the ending got silly.

Shallow Hal features a scene where Jason Alexander's character reveals he has a tail, which is based on a real-life medical condition.

The most recent Oscar winner for "Best Original Song" is being challenged with a multimillion dollar lawsuit.

A remake of the sports movie Victory is on the way via an unlikely source. Per The Wrap, The Shallows and Non-Stop filmmaker Jaume Collet-Serra is onboard to direct Warner Bros.'s remake of director John Huston’s 1981 sports drama Victory, which starred Michael Caine, Sylvester Stallone, and Pele. The story revolves around a soccer match during World War II between allied POWs and the German National Team to be played in Nazi-occupied Paris. The POWs must decide whether to try and escape, or work to defeat the Nazis on the national stage, thus humiliating them … The post ‘The Shallows’ Director Jaume Collet-Serra to Helm Sports Movie Remake ‘Victory’ appeared first on Collider.

While the Academy seemed to be taking steps to make the Oscars telecast more appealing to viewers with a proposed Popular Film Oscar and removing some categories from the live broadcast, last night’s ceremony was proof positive that the Oscars will always—without fail—create memorable moments all its own. Those who tune in usually do care about the Oscars already, so there’s no “dumbing down” necessary to make the show more appealing. But last night’s telecast was definitely not lacking for moments worth cheering for, worth tearing up for, and maybe even worth celebrating. ABC has …

The Maine family was reunited, and you better bring your tissues.

With the news dropping recently that Black Panther's "All The Stars" and A Star Is Born's "Shallow" would be the only nominated songs performed at the 91st Academy Awards, Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper decided to get a bit of impromptu practice in. During Gaga's Saturday night performance of her Las Vegas residency, the artist called her Star Is Born co-star and director up on stage to deliver a rendition of the duet that's been stuck in my goddamn head since what feels like 2015. "Jackson never used these," Cooper said of the in-ear …
