28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE – Review by Susan Granger

February 18, 2026February 27, 2026 Susan Granger 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, alex garland, Alfie Williams, amazon prime, danny boyle, Jack O'Connell, nia dacosta, ralph fiennes, sony

Determined to continue Danny Boyle’s bleak, dystopian franchise, screenwriter Alex Garland and director Nia DaCosta create a bizarre, somewhat incoherent installment: 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple – now available for rent on Amazon Prime. Reaching beyond the ghoulish brain-eaters known as zombies, this hardcore horror thriller, set in a post-apocalyptic world, re-introduces deranged-yet-erudite Dr. Ian Kelson (Ralph Fiennes), who built an ominous Bone Temple – ‘an ossuary’- an immense pyramid of bleached skulls, surrounded by tall, thin towers of trussed-together bones, resembling white bamboo columns – as a monument to death.

Where there’s a Will there’s a way. Will Harris that is. A small billy goat who has dreams of being the greatest of all time…in roarball – a high intensity, co-ed basketball league played by the most aggressive animals in the world. When a viral video of his skills surprisingly earns him a spot on his struggling hometown team, Will must now convince his squad that size doesn’t matter. GOAT is Rocky meets Space Jam. An inspirational tale about an underdog…err…goat…who just wants to be part of the herd. The PG animated sports comedy emphasizes perseverance, teamwork and trust.

GHOSTBUSTERS: Frozen Empire – Review by T.J. Callahan

March 19, 2024March 20, 2024 T. J. Callahan Annie Potts, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Ghostbusters:Frozen Empire, jason reitman, kumail nanjiani, Patton Oswalt, sony

After an ancient relic unleashes an evil force, the original and the new Ghostbusters combine to turn up the heat on a tall, dead and horny villain named Garraka whose mission is to bring on the second coming of the Ice Age in Ghostbusters:Frozen Empire. This 4th installment of the Ghostbusters franchise means well, but tries to do too much. There are multiple storylines throwing a myriad of particles and Stay Puft Marshmallow men at us that only make for paranormal plot holes. There’s an abundance of sarcasm and over acting from the younger performers with plenty of mugging for the camera by all.

GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE – Revew by Susan Kamyab

March 19, 2024March 21, 2024 Susan Kamyab Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Finn Wolfhard, Gil Kenan, jason reitman, kumail nanjiani, mckenna grace, paul rudd, sony

In this newest sequel, the discovery of an ancient artifact unleashes an evil force, making Ghostbusters new and old join forces to protect their home and save the world from a second ice age. All the beloved cast from the previous film have returned, but this time around filmmaker Jason Reitman, son of Ivan Reitman, who directed the original movies, sticks to co-writing credits and Gil Kenan steps in as director. It’s possible this was the first mistake, as Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is a disjointed mess, bloated with too many scattered storylines.
