Sequels have been a touchy subject when it comes to Pixar, but it's hard to deny the natural premise of "Inside Out 2." It's been nine years since "Inside Out," yet in the span between that film and its new sequel, Riley, the young girl with a head full of emotions, has gone from 11 years old to...
Death has taken many forms in cinema. It's been Bengt Ekerot. Ian McKellen. John Cleese. Even Brad Pitt with blonde highlights. But in "Tuesday," filmmaker Daina O. Pusić's bold, fantastical and affecting debut, death looks like a lot like a macaw that's seen better days.

He's 61 now, well-off and trim. He has many accomplishments as an actor but there's this one thing he finds hard to shake: Back in 1985, he got called something.

At the beginning of "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga," we are introduced to a kick-ass woman who rides a horse, then a motorbike, nails a few bad guys with sharpshooting finesse and fights off a mob. But it's not Furiosa — it's her mom.
That's one of the oddities of this latest offering in the...
You know what? It's true. They never do tell you about the placenta.
