Vision Quest Is Getting Too Big for Vision
Vision Quest started as a story about Vision figuring out who he is. Four episodes in, another Ultron-like synthesoid has appeared, the shadow of Sokovia is hanging over a growing AI crisis, and Ultron is beginning to take control of Vision himself. Adam looks at why the series may be reaching…

Street Fighter Tries to Do Everything and Accomplishes Almost Nothing
The new Street Fighter has the characters, the tournament, the nostalgia and enough franchise mythology to fill several movies. What it doesn’t have is a clear idea of which story it actually wants to tell. Adam breaks down the movie’s missing protagonist, rushed tournament, weak fight...
-

-
Behemoth! Review: Tony Gilroy Turns a Drama Into a Thriller
Behemoth! is not quite the movie its trailer suggests, and that's one of the reasons Adam is keeping this festival review unusually spoiler-light.

-
Digger Is About Who Owns the Truth
When a catastrophe affects millions of people, who gets to decide how the person responsible is remembered? Adam reviews Digger, examining its theatrical reconstruction of an environmental disaster, Tom Cruise's performance as an actor challenging that reconstruction and the deeper question…

Charlie Harper Is a Millennial Romance With a Gen X Protagonist
Charlie is smart, well-read and completely unsure what he wants to do with his life. That kind of drifting protagonist has been a staple of American independent film for decades; but in Charlie Harper, the archetype sometimes feels like it belongs to an earlier generation. Adam looks at the…

Finding Emily Overcomplicates a Great Rom-Com Premise
A guy meets a woman named Emily, gets the wrong phone number and finds another Emily while trying to track down the first one. That is already a great rom-com setup.

-
Lanterns Episode 3 Turns John Stewart's Strength Into a Tragedy
Lanterns Episode 3 explains why John Stewart may be one of the most naturally formidable Green Lanterns we've seen; but the answer comes with a cost. Adam looks at John's childhood, the extreme training his parents put him through after learning he might someday be chosen by the Guardians, the...
-
Coyote vs. Acme Is Good, So Why Did Warner Bros. Try to Bury It?
After years on the shelf, Coyote vs. Acme finally made it to theaters, and seeing the finished movie only makes Warner Bros.' original decision more confusing. Adam reviews the long-delayed Looney Tunes film, its surprisingly sharp corporate satire, its deep affection for animation history and…
more -
Lanterns Isn’t Afraid to Be Green Lantern
HBO’s Lanterns looked like it might turn Green Lantern into a grounded prestige drama and leave the cosmic weirdness behind. After the first two episodes, Adam is pleasantly surprised. Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre establish a strong Hal Jordan/John Stewart dynamic, the central mystery actually...
-
The End of Oak Street Has a Great Premise and No Idea What to Do With It
If an entire town gets thrown into prehistoric Earth, the town should probably matter. This week on Beware of Spoilers, Adam breaks down The End of Oak Street, a new Bad Robot dinosaur movie with an excellent premise but too many competing ideas. From an underdeveloped suburban community to a...
-

-
Nolan's Odyssey and the Art of Deconstruction
Christopher Nolan is back, and Adam is ready to call it: The Odyssey is the best film of the year so far and a full five stars. Join in for a spoiler-inclusive breakdown (though the book is 3000 years old so the statute of limitations has well passed) of why Nolan has quietly become the best...
-
Episode Discussion: My Adventures With Superman Season 3 Episodes 1, 2, and 3
My Adventures with Superman is back after nearly two years, and Adam digs into the first three episodes of season three. Is this secretly Kara's season, how the Reign of the Supermen arc reframes Cyborg Superman as a Lex Luthor story, and why the show's refusal to hit the reset button on Clark…
more -
Milly Alcock Carries Supergirl Across the Finish Line
DC's second swing lands, mostly. Adam caught an early screening of Supergirl and makes the case that Milly Alcock's jaded, Woman of Tomorrow-flavored Kara is strong enough to carry a film with real structural cracks. Full spoilers on the Kara-and-Ruthye dynamic that anchors the whole thing, the...
-
Toy Story 5 and the Movie That Won't Commit
The toys are back, and Adam has thoughts about whether they needed to be. A full-spoilers breakdown of Toy Story 5, the Lilypad tablet villain, a tech-and-childhood theme the movie raises and then refuses to actually wrestle with, why this is fundamentally Jessie's story and all the better for…

-
Masters of the Universe: 15 Years for This?
After almost fifteen years in development hell, He-Man finally hits the big screen.

Plus:...
