Sinners, written and directed by Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed), reunites Mr. Coogler with his frequent collaborator Michael B. Jordan, who plays dual roles as twin brothers “Smoke” and “Stack”. It’s 1932, and the brothers return home to Mississipp
Josh Reviews Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning
I never watched the original Mission: Impossible TV series, but I’ve been a fan of the Mission movies ever since seeing the first one, directed by Brian De Palma, back in 1996. With the exception of the hiccup that was the second film (which had a great first 30-40-ish minutes

Josh Reviews Daredevil: Born Again
I was delighted when the MCU started incorporating aspects of the Marvel Netflix shows, by bringing back Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home and then again in an excellent episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law… and by bringing back Vincent D’Onofrio as Wi
