‘Venom: Let There Be Carnage’ (2021) Review
‘Venom Let Ther Be Carnage’ (2021) Review: Symbiote Squabbles At just over 90 minutes, ‘Venom Let There Be Carnage’ is miniscule compared to your usual comic book blockbuster.

‘Jungle Cruise’ (2021) Review
‘Jungle Cruise’ (2021) Review: Fun & Familiar There’s a moment in ‘Jungle Cruise’ in which cruise captain Frank single handedly wrestles a hungry cheetah, and wins. The movie has an explanation for why this impossible thing occurs, and for the most part it’s acceptable, but it was not lost on
