There is a dread that hovers over " A Thousand and One," writer-director A.V. Rockwell's remarkably vivid and tender debut feature about a mother and son in New York in the 1990s.

The film does not play out like a mystery or a thriller — it's about the mundanities and trials of life with...

"You're not a lot of fun, are you," notes barbarian Holga (Michelle Rodriguez) to brave fighter Xenk (Regé-Jean Page) in the new "Dungeons & Dragons" film, making two jokes at once.

The first is that Xenk, a paladin (or holy knight) in "D&D" lingo, is everything BUT fun — gorgeous...

It's one of the great ironies of cinema that many — not all, but many — of the most seemingly arthouse filmmakers make some of the most approachable films.

The on-screen pairing of Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin is not exactly a novelty at the moment. Seven seasons of "Grace and Frankie" and the movie "80 for Brady" has, perhaps, spoiled us a little lately. And, unfortunately, second-act movies with Hollywood legends have a very hit or miss track...

David Letterman joins Bono and The Edge in a new streaming documentary about U2 and one obvious question soon jumps out: What exactly is David Letterman doing here?

The droll, bushy-bearded American comedian is an odd choice to be master of ceremonies for this Disney+ project, unbalancing...

Sam Claflin is the first to admit that when he got the part of Billy Dunne, the co-lead singer of a world-famous 1970s rock band in "Daisy Jones & the Six," he was no musician.

Claflin was the last person cast. His co-stars had already begun rehearsing at a band camp where the actors...

It must be a daunting prospect to pick up a franchise on the third movie. Add in the pressure of following filmmakers like Ryan Coogler and Steven Caple Jr. in your directorial debut that you're also starring in and it's enough to make you wonder what on earth Michael B. Jordan was thinking....
