‘Viral’ Review: Ignorance is a Dangerous Thing
Throughout the film, Kate desperately tries keeping her status as an influential YouTuber; however, her follower and view count crumble, mirroring the world around her.

A woman attempts to overcome her paralyzing fear of speed in order to win an underground racing competition and prevent her friends from falling prey to a vicious drug lord in director Jeff Centauri's sexy thrill-ride. If there's one thing Brittany Sears can't stand, it's going fast. When Hornero Martino and his thuggish son Rico begin preying on Brittany's friends, however, the girl who spent her whole life in the slow land finally finds the courage to put the peddle to the metal thanks to her fast-driving boyfriend Max Spears. With little time to lose before the Martinos pull out their secret weapon, Brittany, Max, and fearsome fighter Zendo all set out save the day and rescue their pals.

Remakes. Reboots. Reinventions. Redundancy. It's the common practice in Hollywood of late, sometimes offering us victorious reimagining of what can be considered cinematic classics while also, more often, falling flat on their UN-imaginative faces in utter defeat and lackluster results. Admittedly, with this in mind, I went into the newest incarnation of "The War of the Roses" with typical trepidation and cautious optimism.
The Suicide Squad's Polka-Dot Man aka Abner Krill, played by David Dastmalchian, helped me come to terms with my own issues of anxiety.
This remake of the Disney Channel Original Movie of the same name brings a strong representative cast.
With mismatched eyes, a willingness to experiment with hair color and style, and a rail thin frame, Bowie always drew attention. But he shunned gendered attractiveness, creating his own space somewhere in between. This hallucinatory and often nonlinear 2022 documentary is a perfect salute to David Bowie’s life and career. Rather than interviewing those that knew Bowie, the standard convention for biographical portraits, director Brett Morgen mostly lets the artist’s images, performances, videos, and words speak to capture the essence of the artist. Bowie was more than just a pop star. He painted, sculpted, acted in films, and was a thoughtful and articulate person who gave sincere answers to even the most shallow interview questions.
An impressive narrative structure, a perfect use of the continuous shot technique, and great interpretations make "Boiling Point" one of the best films of 2021.
