Cathy Yan ’s The Gallerist looks stylish and bold on the surface, but beneath the colorful visuals and strong performances, the movie struggles to deliver a truly engaging story. While Natalie Portman and Jenna Ortega are highly entertaining together, the film itself feels more like a lecture than an emotional or thrilling experience. This is Yan’s first movie since Birds of Prey , and while her creative energy is still present, The Gallerist often feels confused about whether it wants to entertain or make a statement about modern art culture. A Stylish Setup With Dark Humor The film introduces us to Polina Polinski (Natalie Portman), a stressed art gallery owner on the verge of financial collapse. During a private viewing of new artwork by artist Stella Burgess (Da’Vine Joy Randolph), Polina’s assistant Kiki (Jenna Ortega) alerts her to a water leak near a large sculpture called The Emasculator . Things quickly spiral out of control when a rude art influencer insults the wo...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is no longer just about blockbuster movies. With Disney+, Marvel expanded into TV shows — and that’s where things became complicated. While early series like WandaVision and Loki earned praise, later shows such as She-Hulk , Secret Invasion , and Ironheart divided fans and damaged trust.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is already making headlines, and Episode 2 has given fans another surprise they didn’t see coming. The episode opens with an unexpectedly bold and comedic scene involving Ser Arlan of Pennytree , played by Danny Webb , and it has quickly become one of the most talked-about moments of the series so far.

The moment is brief and meant to be humorous, but its full-frontal presentation surprised many fans watching at home.

After many years away from full horror, director Sam Raimi is back with Send Help , an R-rated survival horror film that mixes blood, dark comedy, and sharp social commentary. While it’s marketed as a brutal horror movie, Send Help is actually something more interesting — a clever battle of power, ego, and control between two people stranded on a deserted island.

A Horror Film With a Psychological Twist At first glance, Send Help looks like a classic survival horror story. A plane crashes into the ocean, two people survive, and danger waits on a remote island. But beneath the gore and tension, the movie focuses on human behavior , especially how power shifts when social rules disappear. The real horror here isn’t just blood or death — it’s ego, entitlement, and manipulation. Strong Performances Carry the Film The movie is driven almost entirely by its two leads...
