Graham Craycraft Suburbicon is directed by George Clooney, written by Clooney and the Coen Brothers, and is set in 1959 in the community of Suburbicon which models Anytown USA. The film balances two levels of plot which seems at first to be poorly executed, but on further study and thought it is executed mediocrely. There is a clear cut racial issue of a black family moving into the solely white lived community of Suburbicon. Matt Damon’s character, Gardner Lodge,  and his family deal with the tragedy of losing his wife to violent criminals and those criminals are also looked into with some detail. Clooney’s different plot channels would be better suited to separate movies. He weakly, or absently, mixes in the race issue with the study of the Lodge’s family. They only work together in a few scenes which I’ll let you get to on your own as they would spoil some level of the movie. With great acting and one well thought out storyline Suburbicon is a good movie. Damon, who ...

Graham Craycraft Curb your Enthusiasm season nine debuts with the episode "Foisted." Larry David is finally back after many years of a break from the show. The time in between season eight and nine was much longer than any usual break. Larry David loves doing this show and has said before that it is the most fun thing he does right now. So why the large gap? Well David said for years after season eight that he was thinking of revamping the show but just still wanted it to be funny. The same issue plagued Seinfeld during those years. One of the most popular shows in television history did not return after season nine because they wanted it to be funny up until the end. So with that in mind let's get into the new season. As previously stated, the first episode is named "Foisted," and begins in a kind of strange way. After the immediate hilarious opening of David in the shower trying to open a bottle of pump shampoo, ultimately ending with him destroying i...

By Michael Momper In a world full of mindless and trivial sci-fi movies that often unravel to be little more than quick cash-grabs, it is a SEQUEL that stands alone in 2017 as the most thought-provoking, riveting, and beautifully photographed sci-fi film yet. Blade Runner 2049 is an achievement in filmmaking on its own, but it is absolutely astounding to me that it can so accurately capture the atmosphere and philosophical musings of its source material that came 35 years before it. Regrettably, the sci-fi film industry has decided to masquerade behind a shiny facade of CGI as effects have become more stunningly realistic; this facade usually serves as a distraction to the fact that there is little emotional depth, and very little rumination on parallels between the futuristic world created therein and our world today (movies with a lot to look at but little to say, such as " Jupiter Ascending ", come to mind). Director Dennis Villenueve, however, is no sucker for hollow...
