Some call Morbius one of Marvel’s most compelling and conflicted characters. The comic book character comes to the big screen with Jared Leto transforming into the enigmatic antihero, Michael Morbius. 

Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder, and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. What at first appears to be a radical success soon reveals itself to be a remedy potentially worse than the disease. 

Daniel Espinosa directed Morbius with the story by Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless and the screenplay by Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless and Art Marcum and Matt Holloway. The rest of the cast includes Matt Smith, Adria Arjona, Jared Harris, Al Madrigal, and Tyrese Gibson. It’s refreshing to see a surprise appearance of Michael Keaton, who is not on the cast list yet.

horrifying look at a boy who befriends a doll, Brahms: The Boy II

Directed by William Brent Bell, Brahms: The Boy II brings a frightful look at the unaware and terrifying history of Heelshire Mansion. The story follows a young family just moving into a guest house on the estate where their young son soon makes an unsettling new friend, an eerily life-like doll he calls Brahms.

Bell directed the first Brahms movie. An excellent cast includes Katie Holmes, Christopher Convery, Owain Yeoman, and Ralph Ineson.

The studio calls this the final trailer, and it’s okay because it tells more about the story.

Inspired by True Events “The Two Popes” Trailer and Clips

drama, true stories, ,
Discussing the possibility of leaving the role of pope, we wonder who is actually the pope.

Directed by Fernando Meirelles, The Two Popes is an intimate story of one of the most dramatic shifts of power in the last 2,000 years. Frustrated with the direction of the church, Cardinal Bergoglio, played by Jonathan Pryce, requests permission to retire in 2012 from Pope Benedict, played by Anthony Hopkins. 

Instead, facing scandal and self-doubt, the introspective Pope Benedict summons his harshest critic and the future successor to Rome to reveal a secret that would shake the foundations of the Catholic Church. Behind Vatican walls, a struggle commences between tradition and progress, guilt and forgiveness, as these two very different men confront their pasts to find common ground and forge a future inspired by actual events for a billion followers around the world. 

The three clips with Hopkins and Pryce are no comparison. It’s incredible to watch these two work together and evidence as to why Pryce received a Golden Globe nomination.
