Originally published as a serialized adventure in “The Saturday Evening Post,” Jack London’s “The Call of the Wild” has been seen as a classic American story of adventure since 1903.
“Dolittle” (2020) brings a new telling of a classic story that many know and love from childhood. Even if you didn’t watch the original film from 1967 or the retelling in 1998, I can still bet that as a child, you tried to speak to animals — or at least wished you could.

“Joker,” directed by Todd Phillips, follows Arthur Fleck through a story about mental illness and finding a purpose, showing the tragic events that pushed him to become the clown prince of crime we all know and love.
IT Chapter 2 is the fulfilling finale to one of the greatest horror stories of this generation. This clown teaches a better life lesson than most family stories in this epic tale of self-discovery and letting go of the pains of the past. This spoiler free review will talk about the overarching feeling of the film…
