‘Verity’ review: Latest Colleen Hoover adaptation fades, then fizzles (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Having seen “Verity” — the latest screen adaptation of a novel by popular romance novelist Colleen Hoover, which hits theaters this week — it’s hard not to chuckle a little when reading the movie’s production notes. “Hoover was inspired to write her first thriller due in part to feeling disappointed in a horror film’s unearned plot twists,” the notes state.

Great Lakes Theater’s ‘The Winter’s Tale’ review: Problems and pleasures (opens the original)

Read excerpt
The dazzling new film “Forgotten Island” stands out from the animated pack in part due to its celebration of Filipino folklore. Set in Manila and a magical island home to various Aswang — an umbrella Filipino term for shape-shifters and other supernatural creatures — the mainstream movie is proudly of its place. That said, you need not be of Southeast Asian heritage to connect deeply with the latest release from DreamWorks Animation, maker of films such as “Shrek,” “How to Train Your Dragon” and
