Tyler Perry recently released a psychological crime drama film called Straw. The movie, which debuted on Netflix on June 6, has been a hit with viewers.

Per ScreenRant, the latest thriller from Madea creator Perry has closed out its first weekend on Netflix with some solid reviews from viewers. At the time of writing, Straw holds a 76% approval rating via review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes' user-generated "Popcornmeter," as averaged across more than 250 user-submitted ratings. Although there are not currently enough critical ratings to generate a "Tomatometer" score for the film, early reviews from critics point towards it being a general success.

Written and directed by Perry, who also produced alongside Angi Bones and Tony Strickland, Straw stars Taraji P. Henson as Janiya Wiltkinson, a single mother living with her often ill daughter Aria. Over the course of the film, a series of minor crises eventually build up to a full-blown lethal breakdown...

Ambitious and often overlooked, Isla will have to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community that she is the right choice for the job. Running Point was renewed for a second season early last month.

This post contains spoilers for "Your Honor."

"Your Honor" wasn't quite the hit that star Bryan Cranston's previous drama series, "Breaking Bad," was. But when your drama series is on Showtime (now Paramount+ with Showtime), it's at somewhat of a disadvantage in terms of its reach — which is why the excellent, savage satire that was "The Curse" never got the support it deserved. Luckily, after the series wrapped up in 2023, "Your Honor" got a Netflix boost when it hit the streamer back in July 2024, making it a much more widely-viewed show than it ever was before.

That's a good thing, too. As widowed New Orleans judge Michael Desiato, Cranston was characteristically brilliant, delivering an arresting performance that demanded a lot from the actor as he rendered the Judge's transformation from morally upstanding citizen to compromised criminal. After his own son, Adam (Hunter Doohan), admits to killing a young man...

Spoilers for Your Honor for seasons 1 and 2 ahead.

Fia Baxter (Lilli Kay) becomes a critical character in Your Honor season 2 and when she gives up her baby, it marks a critical moment in her relationship with her family and her past. Sofia "Fia" Baxter is the only daughter of crime lord Jimmy Baxter (Michael Stuhlbarg), and his wife Gina (Hope Davis). In season 1, Fia becomes Adam Desiato's (Hunter Doohan) girlfriend, though she is unaware that Adam was the one who killed her brother. Fia is a sweet and kind character, in contrast to her more hot-headed older brother, Carlo (Jimi Stanton).

Adam and Fia's romance lasts until Adam is accidentally shot in the season 1 finale, but their relationship lives on as revealed in Your Honor season 2, episode 1. At the end of the episode, it's shown that Fia has a newborn, and there's only one person who could be the father: Adam.

Spoilers for Your Honor season 1 ahead.Your Honor season 2, episode 1, "Part Eleven" picks up right where season 1 left off, requiring any recap to cover the big points of the season 1 finale. Adapted from the Israeli series Kvodo, Your Honor season 1 premiered in December 2020 on Showtime, billed as a miniseries. The show earned middling reviews with a 49% on Rotten Tomatoes, but it's one of Bryan Cranston's best performances. He plays the lead and titular "honor", Michael Desiato, a respected New Orleans judge who subverts the law to save his son, Adam (Hunter Doohan).

The end of Your Honor season 1 sees Adam shot dead, despite everything Michael tried to do to protect him. It's a tragedy in every sense, as Michael compromises his morals to protect Adam, but his son still winds up dead from a fluke accident and Michael ends up in prison. Despite the finality of season 1, interest in...

Your Honor may return for a third season after all. The crime drama series, which ended last year after two seasons on Showtime, has become a hit on Netflix since it arrived on the streaming service at the end of May.

Bryan Cranston, Rosie Perez, Michael Stuhlbarg, Hope Davis, Lilli Kay, Jimi Stanton, Benjamin Flores Jr., Andrene Ward-Hammond, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and Keith Machekanyanga star in the Your Honor series, which follows a father, New Orleans judge Michael Desiato (Cranston), who lost his son following the boy’s involvement in a hit and run.

Bryan Cranston's legal thriller, Your Honor, made it to Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows this week, garnering 20.7 million hours viewed. Your Honor showcases Cranston's talent in dramatic roles, differentiating him from his comedic past. The series stands out due to its moral ambiguity and intricate plot, making it a core hit for the streaming service.

Bryan Cranston's legal thriller Your Honor has broken into Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows this week, proving the popularity of the two-season show on its new streaming platform. Originally airing on Showtime, the story follows Cranston's Judge Michael Desiato, who tries protecting his son Adam after the young man killed the teenage son of a mob boss in an accidental hit-and-run. The story expands as the series continues, with many figures in Your Honor's cast having relations in the criminal underworld now trying to find Michael's son.

Now, Netflix has revealed Your Honor...

Bryan Cranston's Your Honor was primarily filmed in New Orleans, using key locations like Uptown and the Lower Ninth Ward for storytelling. The series delves into moral dilemmas as Michael grapples with his past decisions, showcasing the city's geography as a crucial backdrop. Important landmarks like Commander's Palace and the Bourbon Orleans Hotel play significant roles in shaping the narrative of Your Honor.

Bryan Cranstons New Orleans-set show Your Honor had a number of key filming locations that gave rise to the film. The Breaking Bad star returned to a leading TV role with Your Honor, a legal drama that sees Cranston play Michael Desiato, a judge who must reckon with his past decisions and role in his son's tragic hit-and-run. In addition to Cranston, Your Honor features a talented cast including Hope Davis, Michael Stuhlbarg, Lilli Kay, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Benjamin Flores Jr., Keith Machekanyanga, Hunter Doohan, and Jimi Stanton.

Your Honor, developed by Peter Moffat, stars Bryan Cranston as a judge in New Orleans who covers for his teenage son when he accidentally kills the son of a dangerous mobster. The cast of Your Honor remained largely consistent between seasons, with some actors departing after season 1. Alongside Bryan Cranston, the cast of Your Honor includes longtime actors like Hope Davis, Michael Stuhlbarg and Isiah Whitlock Jr., and relative newcomers like Hunter Doohan, Lilli Kay, and Keith Machekanyanga.

In the cast of Showtime's crime drama Your Honor, Bryan Cranston was surrounded by a balanced mix of familiar faces, seasoned actors, and young up-and-comers. Developed for American audiences by Peter Moffat, Your Honor follows Cranston's Michael Desiato, a New Orleans judge who finds himself in a tough situation when his son accidentally commits a life-ruining crime. Your Honor premiered on Showtime in December 2020 and aired until February 2021.

Though it was...

Fans of Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston will soon be able to watch both seasons of Your Honor at a new streaming home at the end of the month. The actor has shared that the limited series, which originally aired at Showtime, is hitting Netflix on May 31.

"Hi Everyone... I'm excited to announce that my show Your Honor Seasons 1 & 2 will be on Netflix as of this Friday May 31st," the actor said in a post on X to share the news. "If you havent seen this limited series - please do catch it. Im very proud of it. We have a terrific cast, and youll be on the edge of your sofa watching this story unfold.

Back in 2019, we watched as Bryan Cranston spiraled deeper and deeper into a web of lies so twisted, it seemed like the only way out was death. Your Honor Season 1 followed Judge Michael Desiato (Cranston) as he goes to extreme lengths to cover up his son’s hit-and-run. Not an easy task for any parent, let alone when the victim is the son of the head of New Orleans’ most notorious crime family, Jimmy Baxter (Michael Stuhlbarg). Michael’s deceit and cover-ups lead to the wrongful conviction of a member of a local gang, Kofi Jones (Lamar Johnson). All but one member of Kofi’s family is killed in a bombing by the Baxters, and he himself is beaten to death by Jimmy Baxter’s older son, Carlo (Jimi Stanton) in prison. This leads to Michael fixing the trial of Carlo to keep the Baxters at bay. Oh, and Michael...

There’s a new showrunner set to preside over season two of Showtime’s Your Honor.

Joey Hartstone, who worked with exec producers Robert and Michelle King on season one of the series and is a veteran of The Good Fight, is taking over as showrunner. Peter Moffat (Criminal Justice) oversaw season one and departed for personal reasons. He next has season two of AMC’s 61st Street, which he co-created with J. David Shanks, set to premiere next year.

The legal drama starring Breaking Bad grad Bryan Cranston was originally picked up as a limited series and submitted in that category for Emmy consideration. After being shut out by the TV Academy, Showtime renewed the series for a second season featuring the same cast.

Season two will return to the premium cable network on Sunday, Dec. 11, at 9 p.m., with a streaming debut on Dec.

Your Honor is returning soon for its second and final season and Showtime has released a teaser trailer.

Starring Bryan Cranston, Hope Davis, Sofia Black-d'Elia, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Michael Stuhlbarg, Carmen Ejogo, Keith Machekanyanga, Andrene Ward-Hammond, Lilli Kay, Benjamin Flores Jr., and Jimi Stanton, the series revolves around the actions of Michael Desiato (Cranston), a prominent judge from New Orleans. The first season follows Desiato as he twists the law after his son (above) is involved in a hit and run that kills the offspring of a mafia kingpin.

Exclusive: We’ll be seeing more of Carlo, Fia and Eugene in the upcoming second and final season of Showtime’s Your Honor. Jimi Stanton (Castle Rock) Lilli Kay (Chambers) and Benjamin Flores Jr. (Fear Street), who recur as the characters, respectively, have been promoted to series regulars for Season 2.

Bryan Cranston stars in the series as Michael Desiato, a respected New Orleans judge whose teenage son is involved in a hit-and-run that leads to a high-stakes game of lies, deceit and impossible choices.

As the only surviving son of Jimmy Baxter (Michael Stuhlbarg), Stanton’s Carlo Baxter is now more determined than ever to follow in his father’s criminal footsteps. Stanton appeared in eight episodes in the first season.

Stanton plays Carlo Baxter. As the only surviving son of Jimmy Baxter (SAG Award winner Michael Stuhlbarg), Carlo is now more determined than ever to follow in his father’s criminal footsteps.

In December, Showtime debuted Your Honor, a harrowing crime drama starring Bryan Cranston in a role that brought the actor his eighth Golden Globe nomination.

The 10-part series, executive produced by The Good Fight’s Robert and Michelle King and The Night Of’s Peter Moffat, centers on Michael Desiato (Cranston), a prominent New Orleans judge whose son Adam (Hunter Doohan) accidently kills another teenager in a hit-and-run collision.

When Desiato finds out what has happened, he immediately urges his son to turn himself into the police. He changes his mind, however, when he learns the victim of the hit-and-run was the son of local mob moss, Jimmy Baxter (Michael Stuhlbarg). The revelation leads him to dispose of evidence incriminating Adam. Naturally, the judge’s actions have tragic consequences.

Your Honor’s first episode sets the stage for violent conflict between Desiato, Adam and the Baxter family. Edward Berger directed...

Chicago – The filmmaker’s journey to premiere is different for all, but no one has seemed to symbolize it better than Logan Stone, the director and co-writer of the new release “Exodus.” The film will open in theaters and Apple TV+ streaming on March 19th, 2021.

“Exodus” involves Connor (Jimi Stanton), an enforcer in a small town, feeling the effects several years after The Rapture. His job is to make sure no one leaves town, but after questioning an escapee, he discovers a VHS tape that paints the image of “The Door,” rumored to be an entry to a Utopian Paradise. He also then escapes, to pursue this portal to salvation.

In this first clip, director Logan Stone expands upon the story of “Exodus,” accessed by Clicking Here … followed by the film’s trailer.

Filmmaker Logan Stone has a Chicago connection via his roots in St. Louis. After doing his undergrad at Southern Methodist University,...

"Don't be afraid..." Gravitas Ventures has released an official trailer for Exodus, a peculiar new old school sci-fi adventure of sorts. When a VHS-tape proves the existence of a rumored doorway to paradise, a young man abandons his decaying hometown in pursuit of the door to salvation, evading vengeful pursuers along the way. The film is set in a "post-rapture world" and involves post-apocalyptic gangs running towns. This doesn't look as good as it should, but there's some interesting ideas in here. Exodus stars Jimi Stanton, Janelle Snow, Charles Andrew Gardner, Keith Jardine, James McKinney, Hannah Kloepfer, Zachary Gossett, Dan Gonón, Grace Barnes, and David Leonard. There isn't enough footage in this trailer to say if it's going to be any good, however the poster actually gets my attention more than anything. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Logan Stone's Exodus, direct from Gravitas' YouTube: In a post-rapture world,...

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Part Ten,” the series finale of “Your Honor.”

Showtime’s limited series “Your Honor” started with a horrific yet accidental child-on-child crime when Adam Desiato (Hunter Doohan) hit Rocco Baxter (Benjamin Wadsworth) with his car and then left the scene after Rocco had died in the street, so it seems only fitting that it would end with another. But, showrunner Peter Moffat tells Variety, that wasn’t always going to be the case.

“Originally the ending was going to be that Jimmy Baxter takes possession of Adam — that he owns him — and that’s the kind-of killing of Adam. While his father looks on, he loses Adam to his nemesis,” he says.

Instead, in the months Moffat had to sit with later scripts after production was paused due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he realized he wanted to bring Eugene...

Stefan Pape, Scott Davis and Linda Marric review Greyhound for the HeyUGuys Youtube channel.

Tom Hanks leads the Word War 2 film Greyhound, which also stars Stephen Graham, Elisabeth Shue, Michael Benz, Rob Morgan, David Maldonado, Jimi Stanton, Matt Helm, Manuel Garcia-Rufloa, Travis Przybylski and tom Brittney. It went to VOD, disappointing Hanks, but our team take a look at the war film and see if the action still impresses on the small screen. Plot: Early in World War II, an inexperienced U.S. Navy captain must lead an Allied convoy being stalked by Nazi U-boat wolfpacks.

Based upon the novel “The Good Shepherd” by C S Forester, this is the thrilling story of the leader of an Allied convoy crossing the North Atlantic in 1942 as he faces relentless attack by a Nazi submarine wolf pack. The leader of the convoy’s destroyer screen is a Us Navy commander making his first Atlantic crossing.

There are so many clichés in the film world. So many of today's films are formulaic. Heck, before there even was a film world there was theater. That Shakespeare guy, even he reworked older stories. For example, Romeo and Juliet. The plot is based on an Italian tale translated into verse as The Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet by Arthur Brooke in 1562 and retold in prose in Palace of Pleasure by William Painter in 1567. Othello comes from the Hecatommithi, a collection of tales published in 1565 by Giraldi Cinthio. Cinthio in turn had been influenced by the Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio. Shakespeare's source for Macbeth is the account of Macbeth, King of Scotland, Macduff, and Duncan in Holinshed's Chronicles from 1587, a history of England, Scotland, and Ireland. And so on and so on.
