An excerpt from Anthony Lane's review of White Noise, the latest Noah Baumbach flick and IMO his least successful. Though like Lane I appreciated the end credits.

Snow wranglers everywhere are today wondering how a Jason Bourne film star could be critically injured plowing his driveway. It goes against the natural order of things. May Renner recover and be ab ... |

Glass Onion, the standalone sequel to Knives Out, is an enjoyable satiric poke at the billionaire ego, as Ed Norton delivers amoral kookiness channeling a Zuckerbergian fool who eventually gets what h ... |

My training was in life sciences and biochemistry, so I'm too aware of how much folk medicine (maybe "youtube medicine" is more current term) is based on pretty thin evidence (or just nonsen ... |

The recent Norwegian film "Troll" is one of those cheesy but fun romps in fantasy-meets-modern-world that barely needs subtitles. WYSIWYG, as they say. Oslo's take on Godzilla, with the us ... |
