Warning: Spoilers ahead.

I will say this about "Twin Peaks: The Return," now that its insanely uneven first four episodes have been dissected and recapped by many, and ignored or kneecapped by everyone else. The Showtime reboot of the 1990-91 ABC series may be the only thing in the popular culture that refuses to converse, even in small talk, ...Read more

"Spirit Game: Pride of a Nation" isn't a standard sports documentary. Its focus is on spiritual matters as well as the physical because it deals with a game its adherents believe is just about as old as time.

That would be lacrosse, a sport the Iroquois, who originated it, call "the creator's game," something they believe was played between ...Read more

American movies are traditionally of two minds about our military might, celebrating it in John Wayne epics and mocking it in everything from "MASH" to "Dr. Strangelove." But "War Machine" has decided, with exceptional results, that it wants it both ways.

"Baywatch" is no day on the beach.

Despite lengthy sequences of attractive women and men jogging toward the camera and jiggling in slow motion, and a cool star in Dwayne Johnson, the film is nothing more than a serviceable also-ran in this year's crop of silly spring movies.
