The Best Fight Scenes of the 21st Century, Ranked

Action films have had undergone an interesting transition since the turn of the century. A genre that used to be largely populated by trained performers capable of in-camera stunt work, American action cinema has more and more been folded in and blended with high concept franchising. Superheroes, sci-fi and spectacle are the order of the day, and in a film market increasingly driven by proven box office star power, the classic model of action star has by and large been relegated to the realm of direct-to-video in favor of leading man heroes with remarkable trainers and even better stunt doubles....

The Princess Review: Diana Spencer’s Life Examined Once Again

The Princessis not the first film to be made aboutPrincess Diana Spencer, nor is it likely to be the last. Before and after her tragic death, she has been the focus of a long list of biopics that have all largely been forgotten. Just last year, there was the evocativePablo LarraínfilmSpencer, which emerged as one of the more compassionate yet no less painful portraits of her life to date. One almost wishes it could have ended there and that the memory of the woman could be left to rest for at least a little while....

This 'Karate Kid' Sequel Is the Saga at Its Most Intense

Anyone born in the 1980s is certainly familiar with theKarate Kidseries, but one installment in particular is noteworthy for raising the bar for martial arts films in general. TheKarate Kidmovies are a breed apart from the more family-friendly action offerings of their time (honorable mention goes toNo Retreat, No Surrender) because they were willing to raise the excitement in ways that others weren’t. While the series has its highs and lows between the different installments, theKarate Kidepic reached its dramatic apex in 1986’sThe Karate Kid Part II....

When To Watch the Live-Action ‘City Hunter’ Adaptation on Netflix

Yet another beloved anime and manga is being adapted for Netflix, this time coming from the genre’s home of Japan with an all-new live-action version ofCity Hunter.

Alas, Netflix finally struck gold with the fittingly pirate-themed live-action version ofOne Piece, which became a hit with critics and fans and even scored a Season 2....

Why Did Anakin Appear to Ahsoka Instead of Anyone Else?

Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for Episode 5 of Ahsoka. In Star Wars, the most important enemy that a Jedi will face is the enemy that exists within them. Sometimes, a Jedi will hold themselves back because they are internalizing things like fear, regret, or trauma, but only until they face their inner demons will they truly be at peace.
