Fantastic journey of William Miller. A teenage writer, voyages thorough the world of travelling rock bands and their groupies. Kate Hudson, Billy Crudup, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, and Frances McDormand complete a stunning cast for this coming-of-age epic.
Edward and Bella wed and manage to conceive before the fast growing baby forces her to become immortal. Fun plot twists and YA romance.
Annalee Newitz sci.fi. thriller that focuses too much on rogue drug dealers and robot interest in human sexuality.
Laini Taylor romantic fantasy of a lost magical city and a librarian obsessed with its rediscovery. This creative celebration of imagination and conflicted relationships was entertaining while a bit uneven in its compelling versus repetitive elements.
Entertaining comedy partnership of Emma Thompson and Mindy Kaling bringing new, and politically correct, blood to an aging talk-show-host’s writers team.
An adult science fiction movie that delivers the best alien arrival story since Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I just re-watched this amazing film and it was better yet on a second viewing. I’ve upped my rating
Melissa Albert’s YA horror fantasy is a moody and inventive dark tale of a hidden magical story world a little too connected to reality. Echoes of Labryinth.
Smart science fiction comedy that entertained while delivering much the same fare as prior MIBs. Tessa Thompson was great as the first (Woman in Black). Family fun.
