Josh Reviews the Snyder Cut of Justice League!
Let’s start here: I’m a Zack Snyder fan. I was blown away by his adaptation of 300 when it was released in 2006, and I’m a staunch defender of his adaptation of Watchmen (especially the super-long “Ultimate Cut”) which, while flawed, is still a heck of
Josh Reviews The Midnight Sky

Josh Reviews One Night in Miami
I only just recently finished listing my favorite movies of 2020, and already I’ve seen one of the first great movies of 2021: One Night in Miami. The film is a fictionalized version of what might have happened on the night in February, 1965, when Cassius Clay, Jim Brown, Malcol
