The world of Formula 1 is revving up bigger and bigger every year. With every race that occurs, audiences everywhere are pulled into the high stakes, high speed thrills of their favorite drivers zooming at top speed down the most challenging tracks ever. This year, Warner Bros, Apple, and director Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick, Tron: Legacy) are going to immerse fans deeper than ever into the driver’s seat with their tentpole film F1, hitting theaters June 27!

New Trailer and Poster for Brad Pitt’s ‘F1’ Race Their Way Online

July 7, 2024July 8, 2024 Mike Manalo

Director Joseph Kosinski is perhaps one of the most underrated filmmakers working today. Say what you will, but I loved the hell out of Tron: Legacy. And naturally, everyone saw and loved Top Gun: Maverick, a movie no one expected to make over $1B at the box office, let alone walk away with a Best Picture nomination at the Oscars. But now Kosinski is following up his need for speed with another picture about speed, teaming up with Brad Pitt to bring us F1!

NOC Review: ‘Puss in Boots: The Last Wish’ is the Best ‘Shrek’ Movie in Years

November 28, 2022November 28, 2022 Mike Manalo

Yes, it’s true that Dreamworks Animation has had to live in the shadow of Pixar Animation studios for some time. But I truly think audiences tend to underestimate them. The first two Shrek movies are terrific. The entire How to Train Your Dragon trilogy is a masterpiece (one of the few film trilogies ever where all entries are fantastic). And even the Kung Fu Panda and Madagascar franchises are well done. It seems the impact great filmmakers like Guillermo Del Toro and Chris Sanders & Dean DeBlois has indeed (much like the fearless feline protagonist of the film this review is for) left an indelible mark. Because case in point, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is surprisingly quite good.
