Movie review: ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ pays stylized homage to WWII operatives

Body
Guy Ritchie’s latest, the cumbersomely titled “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” is at once his “Inglourious Basterds” and also his “Dunkirk.” With his adaptation of the nonfiction book “Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare: How Churchill’s Secret Warriors Set Europe Ablaze and Gave Birth to Modern Black Ops” by historian and war reporter Damien Lewis, Ritchie borrows Quentin Tarantino’s winking post-modern retro style to pay homage to reallife British war heroes with the same reverence that Christopher Nolan paid to the heroes of Dunkirk.

Movie review: Radio Silence brings maximalist style to vampire flick ‘Abigail’

Body
The filmmaking team known as Radio Silence, made up of directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, and producer Chad Villella, struck black (comedy) gold with their 2019 horror thriller “Ready or Not,” about a young bride, played by Samara Weaving, who has to battle her way out of a murderous game hosted by her wealthy soon-to-be in-laws. The film demonstrated their mastery of coupling an irreverent tone with splashy violence, and netted the team the responsibility of making the next two “Scream” movies, the first without Wes Craven behind the camera.

This addition to the Hughes family legacy was brought into fruition after Congress passed the Wild Horse and Burro Act in 1972.

Review: In the enjoyable ‘Franklin,’ Michael Douglas plays a flirtatious founding father

Body
Michael Douglas, star of “Romancing the Stone,” “Fatal Attraction,” “The American President” and so much more, is not the actor one would think of as first in line to play portly, balding man on the money Benjamin Franklin, but he has nevertheless done just that.
