Josh Reviews Only Murders in the Building Season Three
One of the great TV pleasures of the last few years was the magical combination of Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez in Only Murders in the Building. In the show’s third season, the three amateur sleuths find themselves embroiled in the mystery of the death of star Ben

Steven Spielberg Triumphs Again With The Post!
In 1971, the New York Times obtained a secret study prepared by the Department of Defense on the history of the United States’ involvement in Vietnam from 1945-1967. These documents demonstrated that a succession of Presidential administrations had been lying to the U.S. publi
From the DVD Shelf: The Deer Hunter (1978)
A few years ago when I was watching the documentary I Knew it was You: Rediscovering John Cazale (a really incredible short documentary that is well worth checking out — click here for my review), I commented that of Mr. Cazale’s five films, the only one that I hadn’
Catching Up on 2010: Josh Reviews I Knew It Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale
It’s very possible that John Cazale has the greatest batting average of any actor in history. He only appeared in five films, but they were, in order: The Godfather, The Conversation, The Godfather Part II, Dog Day Afternoon, and The Deer Hunter. It’s an amazing streak o

“So, do you love me, or what?” Josh reviews Manhattan (1979)!
I’ve been reading Drew McWeeny’s writings about film for, oh, probably a decade now. I first found his work when he wrote for Aintitcoolnews.com, though these days he has a terrific blog over at Hitfix.com. The dude has some sharp opinions, and while I’m not alwa
The Top 10 Movies of 2009 — Part Two!
Yesterday I began my list of my Top 10 Movies of 2009! Let’s continue, shall we? 5. Inglourious Basterds — Quentin Tarantino demonstrates, once again, that no one can wring more nail-biting tension out of simple conversation than he can. What I thought would be a s
Josh Reviews Fantastic Mr. Fox
Having watched Fantastic Mr. Fox, the phenomenal new stop-motion animated film from director Wes Anderson (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and The Darjeeling Limited), I am almost forced to reconsider all of his previous (also wonderf
