Nolte: Kevin Costner’s “Horizon: An American Saga—Chapter 1” is stunningly ambitious for all kinds of reasons.

Isn’t replacing a minority group with a majority group discrimination?

Hollywood has insulted, demeaned, attacked, condescended to, and alienated half the country, all while attempting to “queer” and groom our kids.

Woody Allen has created an undeniable masterpiece that explores the darkest recesses of adultery, murder, the guilt that consumes us, and the unexpected bit of luck that can exonerate us. Seamlessly weaving it all together, he’s crafted his most morally

“The Equalizer 3” delivers cathartic action and a second-to-none movie star performance courtesy of Denzel Washington.

This dumb attack on Rotten Tomatoes is an act of naked panic.

Legendary director John Carpenter said a sequel to The Thing (1982) starring Kurt Russell might just happen.

James Nathaniel Brown was born in 1936 and passed Thursday at age 87. For reasons no one need explain, he will primarily be remembered for his extraordinary athletic achievements in college and professional football. To give you an idea of just how great of an athlete Jim Brown was, think about this.

Nolte: ‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ is debuting to worse reviews than ‘Indiana Jones and the Kindom of the Crystal Skull.’

Uncle Remus is a black man in a 1946 movie who is not only the star of the movie, his character is the moral center of the story; he is its moral authority and a father figure to a white boy.

The Trump-defending Alan Dershowitz is portrayed as a righteous hero fighting on behalf of a rich, heterosexual white guy in 1990’s “Reversal of Fortune.”

Director Elizabeth Banks’ Cocaine Bear fumbles the can’t-lose concept of a black bear high on cocaine rampaging through a state park.

Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles is not for everyone. You have to meet it on its own terms, which is challenging. But it is unquestionably a masterwork deserving of a place among our great movies, even if that place is not number one.

The left’s ongoing era of woke fascism turned a rewatch of Wim Wenders’masterpiece Wings of Desire (1987) into something special.

Nolte: Two-time Oscar winner and international treasure Michael Caine turned 90 this week. Here are some of his non-blockbuster films I treasure.

Steven Spielberg’s film memoir “The Fabelmans” consists of a lot of bad acting and not a single scene that feels real.

The impossibly beautiful actress and icon Raquel Welch died Wednesday at age 82

Politics and dishonesty aside, ‘She Said’ is dumb, dramatically inert, and populated with dull characters, dull dialogue, and dull scenes.

If sanity ever returns to the American culture, writer/director Todd Field’s brilliant and hypnotizing “Tár” will be remembered as the only honest document of the disgraceful Woke Era.

Watching You People, the latest big Hollywood “comedy” from Netflix, is another depressing reminder (and example) of the ongoing collapse of Hollywood.

Emily the Criminal is the promising feature debut of writer-director John Patton Ford, and I say “promising” because this guy knows how to tell a lean, tense story involving realistic characters in a beautifully paced 93 minutes.

Will Smith’s “Emancipation” has ambitions well beyond its grasp, but works just fine as a streaming movie.

Apple’s big Oscar push this year, director Antoine Fuqua’s Slave Drama “Emancipation,” appears to be dead in the water.

A good example of just how much our culture has regressed over the last half-century can be found in the joyous splendor of the nearly forgotten action-comedy classic, Freebie and the Bean (1974).

Nolte: Chuck Norris movies rawk. Here are my favorites — the ones I’m most thankful for — ranked in order of favoritism.

Quentin Tarantino does not hide his disgust with the quality of movies today. In his mind, movies today don’t “even exist.”

The big, Oscar-bait #MeToo movie She Said went into wide release this weekend and promptly swan-dived into one of the year’s biggest flops.

Road horror takes place on the road, with our protagonists always on the move. Here are nine of my favorite movies that meet that criterion.

RKO left Val Lewton alone to make his movies, and the results saved the studio from bankruptcy and resulted in a run of timeless films that still entertain, provoke, and chill.

Director David Gordon Green plays bait-and-switch with Halloween Ends. Instead of delivering what was promised, an obsessed and intense Laurie Strode hunting down Michael Myers, we’re served a dull character piece focused on some guy named Corey.  

Writer and director Andrew Dominik’s Blonde is an ambitious failure.

The Daily Beast — a far-left propaganda site that doxes private citizens and spreads conspiracy theories — and its unnatural obsession with “My Son Hunter” continued this week with yet another lengthy screed.

How awful does a woketard movie like ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ have to be to earn negative reviews in this fascist era of the Woke Gestapo?

Wolfgang Petersen, the German director who died this week at age 81, is a good example of not knowing how good you have it until it’s gone.

The people who brought us John Wick and Nobody have just delivered Day Shift to Netflix—another flat-out crowd pleaser.

They/Them, a gay empowerment/anti-conversion therapy horror film, was supposed to help put the Peacock streaming network on the map.
