“Alice Through the Looking Glass,” Disney’s follow-up to the 2010 film “Alice in Wonderland,” has all the trappings of an early summer hit: family-friendly, star-studded and shot with gorgeous special effects. Unfortunately, it also suffers from the summer movie pitfall of mediocrity in most other...
Nothing quite captures the spirit of leaving our parkas behind and gearing up for summer like a list of reasons why you should spend your nights inside. But the movies slated to be released this summer boast an array of sequels, reboots and adaptations. And while we’re all for going outside and...
One of the greatest creations of “Key & Peele” was Luther (played by Key), the anger translator who said what Obama (played by Peele) couldn’t.

Two straight-laced guys infiltrate a street gang to rescue their kidnapped kitten. It’s a funny concept, and when you add in the undeniably hilarious duo of Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key, there’s a recipe for a killer comedy. As a five-minute sketch, “Keanu” would be amazing.
