During my rundown of the most anticipated movies of 2024, British filmmaker Alex Garland’s newest movie about a renegade America going into war with itself was my top pick.

It’s laughably inaccurate, but despite … Continue reading Historical Accuracy Be Damned, ‘Braveheart’ Still Owns – ScreenHub Entertainment
