Nicolas Cage's THE SURFER is a head trip that wants to bug and provoke and unsettle you. It does -- it follows you home like sand in your shoes. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

The Accountant 2” subtracts everything that worked about the original. Ben Affleck's grisly efforts to bust up a human trafficking ring are duller than watching him talk about taxes. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

I finally subscribed to WIRED a few months back and...I love it? Its tech lens on culture and politics means it's writing some of today's best journalism. You can see that scope just in today's most popular pieces.

THE WEDDING BANQUET. The overall tone feels like Ahn asking us to trust him to make this modern romance work. But he has a too-clever tic of cutting away from big confrontations. It’s as though we’ve been invited into this home only to be ordered to butt out. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Commentary: Will tariffs threaten the diversity of L.A. menus? Spiking ingredient prices have chefs scrambling

DROP is clever in an Alfred Hitchcock-meets-ChatGPT kind of way. The plot is silly and the climax is at once too fast, too slow and too ludicrous. Really, there are too many things on the menu -- and a lot of red herrings. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

“Warfare” wants to live in the dictionary shoehorned between war cry and war hawk. It's strictly the facts, and those alone are terrible, brave, intense, random, tedious and captivating. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Jack Black is a feat of engineering: a round peg who fits perfectly into MINECRAFT's square-centric land. He was born to pose backlit by a pyre of flaming zombies and does so here, with the hot wind tickling his locks perfectly. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

This twee-sounding British comedy about a folk music duo stuck on an island with their strangest fan sounds like a throwback, and it is. But it's something almost as rare as a revelation: a crowdpleaser I’d recommend to everyone. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

“I did run into moments when I was [promoting] FEUD where people were like, ‘Where have you been? It’s good to see you back.’ And I’m like, ‘I didn’t go anywhere.’” For the @latimes.com, I profiled Naomi Watts, who has a new film and a new book. She didn't go anywhere, but she's definitely back.
