It is not in any way uncommon for two or more seemingly unrelated film genres to come together, at best resulting in, say, 2013’s time travel rom-com “About Time” and at worst something akin to 2011’s dust bowl intergalactic romp “Cowboys and Aliens.” A gritty street film with touches of comedy and a sci-fi angle that seemingly takes its cues from an abridged version of “Us” or “Happy Death Day?” Why not?  Continue reading ‘They Cloned Tyrone’ Review: Sci-Fi, Grit & Humor Mostly Work Together In This Interesting Experiment at The Playlist.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic In America today, no one has a lock on conspiracy theory. It has become the air we breathe, the Kool-Aid we drink, the rabbit-hole ideology that defines too many of us. Yet conspiracy theories come in different shapes and sizes. Many are false, some are true. Many are bat-house crazy, some are more than plausible. All, in one way or another, work as metaphors: for the forces (within government, corporations, whatever) that collude in hiding things from us, for the sinister tantalizing truth that we aren’t allowed to see. “They Cloned Tyrone” is a slow-burn inner-city sci-fi nightmare thriller, one that plays off the spirit of conspiracy theory that has often thrived — with justification — within Black culture. The Tuskegee experiment was a conspiracy that happened; its horrific impact on the hearts and minds of African-Americans is beyond measure. And in the 1970s, the belief that the CIA, linked by the war in Vietnam to the Golden Triangle (the source of most of the world’s heroin), was dumping drugs into America’s inner cities was a notion that gained currency, culminating a decade later in the theory that the CIA was the hidden force behind the crack epidemic.

He added: “If The Truman Show drank a bottle of vodka, what would the outcome be?”“Me and my writing partner [Tony Rettenmaier] always joked about who would make the most ill-fitting detectives – the worst possible candidates to be thrust into the middle of a conspiracy,” Taylor said.They Cloned Tyrone has received largely positive reviews from critics, earning a 97 per cent score on Rotten Tomatoes at the time of writing.A trailer was released last month – you can check it out above.Other cast members include David Alan Grier, Kiefer Sutherland, J.

Jamie Foxx shared a new photo of himself to Instagram three months after suffering a "medical complication." On Thursday, the 55-year-old actor posted an image in which he was seen wearing a sharp black suit as he posed on top of a gold and black Formula One race car.The photo was from an ad campaign for BetMGM, a sports betting company that is partnered exclusively with MGM Resorts.

In a recent interview, John Boyega, most recently known for his role as Finn in the Star Wars movies, opened up about a possible return. His recent words about the franchise come years after he spoke out about how Disney treats black characters in their projects. Boyega accused Disney of using diverse casting to bring in viewers and then pushing those characters to the side after they have made their quick buck. “That was a few years ago, so they were the subject of that particular project,” Boyega recently told TechRadar, in an interview that was conducted before the actors strike.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director John Boyega was asked by “Hot Ones” to rank the films in his “Star Wars” trilogy, which kicked off on a high note in 2015 with the beloved “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and then got polarizing with 2017’s “The Last Jedi” and 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker.” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens is most definitely the best,” Boyega answered “Second, for me, comes [‘The Rise of Skywalker’]. The worst – in the most respectful sense – is [‘The Last Jedi’]. But they’re all lovely.” Boyega cracked a smile and gave some side eye, alluding to the fact that many “Star Wars” fans already know Boyega’s grievances with the space franchise. He notably told GQ magazine in 2020, “What I would say to Disney is do not bring out a Black character, market them to be much more important in the franchise than they are and then have them pushed to the side. It’s not good. I’ll say it straight up.”
