Action/Adventure

In Ari Taub's new film "79 Parts," premiered at this year's Soho Film Festival, we rediscover New York City of the 1970s before cell phones, Uber, and "If you see something say something."

The most interesting Draculas of the 2000s are Jonathan Rhys Meyers' principled, love-sick, brilliant inventor/entrepreneur in the short-lived NBC TV series; Richard Roxburgh's rattled, sardonic, paternal, philosophical, yet ultimately villainous portrayal in the vastly underrated Van Helsing; and Luke Evans' family man and conscientious prince who must sacrifice his own humanity to protect his people from the rapacious Ottomans in the 15th century of Dracula Untold.

"X-Men Apocalypse" contains mass destruction, impressive action sequences, and a plot filled with familiar mutants, religious/cultural overtones, historical/pop culture references, and familiar flashbacks/dialogue.

Directors Joe and Anthony Russo discuss 'Captain America: Civil War' and drop a potential Captain Marvel spoiler in Washington, DC.

"Ip Man 3": An action purchase you won’t be sorry about later.

"The Revenant" utterly lacks extras, but is an enlightening experience in film.

'The Bandit' documents the story behind the making of 'Smokey and the Bandit' and of the relationship of star Burt Reynolds and his close friend, stunt double, and creative force behind the film, Hal Needham.

Not for those seeking thought-provoking storytelling, this President-in-peril thriller is strictly a guilty pleasure.

'Turbo Kid' isn’t just worth a look, it’s something you’ll want in your collection.

It is what it is — a horror comedy — and for a straight-to-video affair, it’s way better than average.
