Review: This installment from DC Studios is better than 'Batman v. Superman,' but way worse than 'Wonder Woman.'

Superhero movies aren't talked about the way they should be. They’ve walled themselves off into their own genre, and insisted that they be rated on separate terms from the rest of the film world. Justice League, the latest from DC Studios, is not a very good movie, but it is also not demonstrably worse than what Marvel has put out.

Jane Campion the Romantic

The swooning, romantic period drama Bright Star chronicles the three-year romance between revered Romantic poet John Keats and young Fanny Brawne cut short due to Keats’s death at the age of 25. In telling this intimate tale of first love, the gifted director and writer Jane Campion (The Piano) has crafted a film that plays like one of Keats’s poems brought to life.
