The Unholy (2021) Movie Review
"The Unholy" is a religious horror movie based on James Herbert's 1983 novel, "Shrine." The story follows disgraced journalist, Gerry Fenn (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), as he investigates a case of cattle mutilation in a small Massachusetts town. However, Fenn stumbles upon a bigger story when a deaf teenage girl, Alice (Cricket Brown), sees the Virgin Mary in the trunk of a scary-looking tree. Alice performs miracle cures, and her small town turns into a modern-day Lourdes, attracting crowds from far and wide. But is the Virgin Mary who she claims to be? Fenn's stories turn Alice into a viral sensation, but when doubters and skeptics start dying mysteriously, Fenn and Father Hagen (William Sadler) begin to question if Alice's powers are indeed divine.

Nobody (2021) Movie Review
In the film “Nobody,” Bob Odenkirk takes on the role of Hutch Mansell, a man with a seemingly ordinary life. The movie opens with a montage that highlights the monotony of Hutch’s daily routine, which consists of scanning his transit card and missing the trash man by mere seconds. Hutch’s life is dominated by routines that have taken a toll on his marriage to Becca, played by Connie Nielsen, but have created a happy home for his children, Blake and Abby. Hutch works at a manufacturing company owned by his father-in-law Eddie, played by Michael Ironside, and his alpha brother-in-law Charlie, played by Billy MacLellan.

No Sudden Move (2021) Movie Review
Steven Soderbergh's latest film, "No Sudden Move," is a captivating genre exercise that serves as a testament to the director's talent for assembling sharp ensembles and interrogating power structures. With a cast of criminals and auto executives bouncing off each other against the backdrop of the auto race in Detroit in 1954, Soderbergh delivers an old-fashioned film with a sharp social commentary. The film is a steel drum of betrayals and twists, and its plot is a classic example of compounding mistakes and hidden motives that release skeletons from closets.

A Quiet Place Part II (2020) Movie Review
In 2018, John Krasinski managed to get moviegoers to be silent in the box-office hit “A Quiet Place,” co-written with Scott Beck and Bryan Woods. The film’s plot goes beyond the characters trying to survive in quiet and teaches uneasy audiences to do the same, filling theaters with silent observers. “A Quiet Place Part II,” the follow-up, makes changes that may surprise fans of the original. The sequel is bigger, faster, louder, and more typical for the horror blockbuster genre. Krasinski proves his intelligence and talent in writing and directing this sequel, showing his non-subversive priorities when it comes to being a genre director. He orchestrates tense life-or-death scenes with an exciting sense of when to go slow and when to floor it. “A Quiet Place Part II” delivers a thrilling experience, reminding the audience of Steven Spielberg's “The Lost World: Jurassic Park,” which also let his beasts rampage through a new environment in a staggering way.
