The investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election has hung over Trump’s head and rained on his parade for over two whole years. It’s pretty understandable he would express some relief at the […]
Amilinda: an Iberian Experience in Milwaukee [REVIEW] Posted on May 19, 2019January 1, 2020 by Luis Mauro Queiroz Filho There’s something really present on the soul of every foreigner, which is a certain sentiment of nostalgia. It is built on very small portions of things you miss from your home country or town that create a big void. It works like a brick wall. However, foreigners also learn that complaints won’t solve anything. You […]
Marvel’s Doctor Strange: Could it Have Been a Better Film? [REVIEW] Posted on May 19, 2019May 19, 2019 by Luis Mauro Queiroz Filho Dealing with Marvel movies requires, above all, rationality. To understand that there is a ruler, a measure, that guarantees a shallow depth of content. Dr. Strange is a work that almost surpasses this threshold. It is likely that this film was the densest production for most of its audience, used to the PG-13 type of […]
First Man: The Depiction of an American Hero [REVIEW] Posted on May 19, 2019May 19, 2019 by Luis Mauro Queiroz Filho Hollywood producers are masters in shaping heroes.

That’s very much the case of “First Man”, a 2018 production that tells the story of Neil Armstrong – the first human to step on the moon, in 1969. However, by telling […]
End of an Era: Endgame Neatly Wraps up a Decade of Superhero Movies [REVIEW] Posted on May 19, 2019May 19, 2019 by Royce Podeszwa The 12-year-old epic saga of Marvel superhero movies has finally ended with the spectacular crescendo that is Avengers:Endgame. The over three-hour film takes us through the highs and lows of the franchise and delivers an acceptable sendoff for the heroes an entire generation grew up loving.

Can Money Buy Freedom? It Appears So [EDITORIAL] Posted on May 19, 2019May 19, 2019 by Royce Podeszwa The recent decision by the Cook County District Attorney’s Office to not press charges against Jussie Smollett is wrong and should never have happened. The DA office themselves admitted they believe he’s guilty. And instead of dealing out justice, they claimed his case isn’t worth prosecuting and they’d rather focus on more “serious” issues. What […]

We do have a good one. Maybe you think of our many festivals. We are known for a lot of those. Or maybe, just maybe, it’s the beer. We do have the nickname “Brew City,” […]
‘Shea Butter Baby’ review Posted on May 19, 2019July 7, 2019 by Andrew Boldt When Top Dawg Entertainment was declared the “Mafia of the west” by Kendrick Lamar on his untitled.unmastered record some years ago, there was little competition in terms of a record label that could rival what was, at that point, Lamar, Jay Rock, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q, SZA and Isaiah Rashad. Young Money was running on both […]
