Local Utica film director, Alex Moore, starts Sundance project DANTE . The film will be shot in Utica, the Adirondacks and thousand islands area.

I have always felt a connection to the tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic. I recall learning about it years ago as a kid, watching "NBC Saturday Night at the Movies" presentation of "A Night to Remember", an earlier film about the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, 102 years ago, the Titanic began sinking.

If you're looking for some free entertainment, consider a vintage Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis film being shown at the Utica Public Library tonight. Here are the details.

It's the return of the 'Avengers' franchise, with the latest entry starring everyone's favorite star-spangled superhero with a shield.

It is a weird distinction that the impossibly perky and polite Karen Gillan is the star of the scariest movie of the year, 'Oculus'. In the film, she plays a young woman determined to crack - both literally and figuratively - the mystery behind an evil mirror that has haunted her family. Her red hair pulled back in a ponytail (which bounces hypnotically to and fro as if it were itself possessed) t

No one really knows what the future holds, but for generations, science fiction authors the world over have been trying to give their own interpretations.

When it comes to dangerous weather, there's nothing more cinematic than a tornado. 'Twister' knew this back in 1996, and if its new trailer is any indication, 'Into the Storm' knows this now in 2014. But there's one big question lingering on our minds: what can 'Into the Storm' do with highly destructive, low-pressure funnel clouds that 'Twister' didn't already accomplish?

This week we get a big-budget Hollywood retelling of one of the most famous biblical stories of them all, plus the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger in kicking-butt mode.

New photos from the 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' set have surfaced featuring Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

Rotten Tomatoes doesn't always provide a perfect look at the world of film criticism, but it does paint a pretty consistent picture of what films are widely loved or widely hated. Any film that reaches 60% positive reviews or higher once they've all been tallied is considered "fresh" and anything under that is "rotten." It's very rare for a movie to reach 100% positive reviews
