 A whole new world? Hardly. The new, completely unnecessary live-action re-make of Disney's animated classic, "Aladdin" should have stayed bottled up.
 Netflix, 2019. "See You Yesterday" is a sharp time-travel story that takes on some weighty subject matter...but despite its teenage stars, it is definitely meant for adults.
 Warner Bros. Pictures, 2019. The first "good" movie based on a video game? I'm not quite sure I can grant "Detective Pikachu" that honor, but it makes a solid case, relying heavily on fan-service...as any Pokémon movie should.
Review: ‘Avengers: End Game’ a fitting final chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it4/23/2019  Marvel/Walt Disney, 2019. ”Avengers: End Game” is funny, exciting, a bit too long and a bit absurd...or in other words, it’s exactly what we’ve come to expect over the course of the 21 previous Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies. “End Game” is the 22nd MCU film and is billed as the “final” installment for this particular group of superheroes.
And while it's a crowd-pleaser through and through, what wasn’t expected was for this last chapter to pack such an emotional wallop. WARNING: What follows is a review of the film that DOES contain MILD SPOILERS, so proceed with caution.  Lionsgate, 2019. From the pits of Hell, I sort of wish "Hellboy" would have just stayed there.
