Read my spoiler-free movie review of Play Dirty (2025).

We have a new heist movie starring Wahlberg, Keegan-Michael Key, LaKeith Stanfield and Rosa Salazar coming up.

From director Shane Black, Wahlberg plays a ruthless thief who stumbles upon a major heist.

This is just the kind of fun, light-hearted action I have time for lately. I also tend to enjoy Wahlberg in action roles like this. The talented Stanfield and Salazar don’t hurt either. I’m read.

Chukwudi Iwuji, Nat Wolff, Gretchen Mol, Thomas Jane, Tony Shalhoub, Hemky Madera, Alejandro Edda and Claire Lovering also star.

Play Dirty Release Dates: October 1st 2025 (US + UK)…

MIGRATION (2023): New Trailer From Kumail Nanjiani, Elizabeth Banks, Keegan-Michael Key, Awkwafina…

23 Comments

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Migrarion (2023).

New animated comedy/adventure Migration is the story of a duck family heading towards Jamaica for a long overdue vacation.

Directed by Benjamin Renner and Guylo Homs; Elizabeth Banks, Keegan-Michael Key, Kumail Nanjiani and Awkwafina voice the key characters.

The four things I already like about Migration are:

  1. All the big-eyed duck cuteness
  2. The beautiful song that starts at 1:07 minutes into the trailer
  3. The great voice-work by all involved
  4. The promising humour, of course

I wonder where this will land in my list of favourite animated films about birds; a list that currently includes Chicken Run (2000) and The Angry Birds Movie (2016).

Are you ready for some cute avian shenanigans? I sure am.

David Mitchell, Caspar Jennings, Tresi Gazal, Carol Kane and Danny DeVito also star.

Migration Release Dates: December 22nd, 2023 (2023), February 2nd, 2024 (UK)…

Based on Jennifer Niven’s best-selling book of the same name, All The Bright Places is a drama/romance starring Elle Fanning and Justice Smith.

Directed by Brett Haley; Violet (Fanning) and Theodore (Smith) meet and impact each other’s lives in positive ways while struggling with the emotional and physical scars of their past.

Additional key cast includes Keegan Michael Key, Alexandra Shipp and Luke Wilson.

I can’t help but compare movies where teenagers fall in love, while one of them is unwell, to the rather good The Fault in Our Stars (2014). Still, I’m interested to see how this will be different.

Nicole Forester, Felix Mallard, Lamar Johnson, Ming Wang, Kelli O’Hara, Sofia Hasmik, Paige Neuenschwander, Jack DeVillers and Andrew Van Camp also star.

All The Bright Things Release Dates: February 28th, 2020 (US)…

New comedy Playing With Fire has a crew of rugged fighters trying to stay in charge. All while taking care of three rambunctious kids before their parents arrive to collect them.

Directed by Andy Fickman; key cast includes John Cena, Keegan-Michael Key, John Leguizamo and Judy Greer star.

Certainly a very simple premise, but I’ll be giving this a chance because of Leguizamo and the promised humour.

Kristine Wilson, Tommy Europe, Finley Rose Slater, Jessica Garcie, Kurt Long, Jasmine Vega, Christian Convery and Brianna Hildebrand also star.

Playing With Fire Release Dates: November 8th, 2019 (US); December 26th, 2019 (UK)…

Starring Keegan-Michael Key, Zachary Levi, Gina Rodriguez and Kristin Chenoweth; The Star, a new animated movie directed by Timothy Reckart tells the story of the first Christmas, from the perspective of the animals.

I’m curious because I want to know if the donkey in this movie will cause me to forget about one of the most famous animated donkeys of all time. At least while I watch this movie anyway. I’m of course, referring to ‘Donkey’ from Shrek (2001).

Ving Rhames, Anthony Anderson, Kris Kristofferson, Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry also star.

The Star Release Dates: November 10th, 2017 (US); November 24th, 2017 (UK)…
