Yeah, I saw it back in the '80s. It was one of the first art movies I ever saw.

Jennifer Lopez sizzles in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN, but it's her lesser-known co-star who completely walks off with the movie.

Here's my review: aisleseat.com/kiss-of-the-...

A burn victim looks for his place in the world in SOUL ON FIRE, starring John Corbett and William H. Macy. This weak faith-based film is a massive step backward for the genre. It's in theaters nationwide this weekend.

Here's my review: aisleseat.com/soul-on-fire...

Just got out of an early screening of KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN. Mark my words, that Jennifer Lopez is gonna be a star! 😉

AMC's BLACK PHONE 2 popcorn bucket is...a black phone! I know that sounds obvious, but this actually looks pretty cool.

I heard about the movie M.D.P.O.P.E. for the first time today, and now I've gone down a rabbit hole reading about it. You couldn't pay me to watch this freaking thing.

The worst thing about this is that Dwayne Johnson will probably go back to making nothing but generic franchise wannabes like RED NOTICE and RED ONE.

With a $5.9 million haul from 3,345 theaters, A24’s “The Smashing Machine” delivered the lowest wide opening of Dwayne Johnson’s career—underperforming his 2010 action thriller “Faster,” which debuted at $8.5 million.

PREDATORS: This documentary will totally change the way you look at Chris Hansen, TO CATCH A PREDATOR, and the many online predator sting videos. I would not have predicted that beforehand.

I highly recommend Dark Nights at Hersheypark, especially the Fill & Kill gas station haunted attraction.

This is the Kissing Tower at Hersheypark. True story: I rode this once and almost passed out on it. (I don't do well with heights.)

I would literally have to strap her to a chair and prop her eyes open, A Clockwork Orange-style.

The kids are occupied elsewhere, so my wife and I had a Date Movie NIght. We watched ANYONE BUT YOU (which I'd already seen). Afterward, I had to explain to her why everybody is always in an uproar about Sydney Sweeney.

If the Taylor Swift release party isn't your thing, check out my reviews of this week's new releases, THE SMASHING MACHINE, GOOD BOY, BONE LAKE, COYOTES, and SHELL.

They're online at AisleSeat.com.

TAYLOR SWIFT: THE OFFICIAL RELEASE PARTY OF A SHOWGIRL - No, it's not a conventional movie, but the "Fate of Ophilia" video is amazing, the behind-the-scenes footage is fun, and the lyric videos (with commentary from TS) gave me added appreciation for the new songs. Obligatory pre-show photo:

Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt reunite for THE SMASHING MACHINE, a movie that could not be more different from JUNGLE CRUISE.

This very loud and very chaotic, and there's a lot of K-POP DEMON HUNTERS music.

AMC must be expecting the Swifties to get out of hand because they brought in a security guard for opening night.

I like both movies but CHRISTY > THE SMASHING MACHINE
