SPONSORED CONTENT WARNING: This week’s Ruthless NFL column is brought to you by #HotChicksForRuthlessNFLColumnists, a totally organic and grassroots movement by and for sexy ladies that is not, in any way, a hilariously inept attempt for a doughy, muttering, unshaven, easily distractible lawyer from New York City to cop a side piece over the internet.

Film Title
GlassSynopsis
A sequel to a 19 year old movie you forgot existed.
Director
M. Night ShyamalanCast
Bruce Willis
Samuel Jackson
James McAvoy
Sarah Paulson
Anya Taylor-Joy
Spencer Treat Clark
Insert broken pun here. One of the biggest mysteries in Hollywood is how M. Night Shyamalan still has an active directing and writing career. My friend and I pondered this question on our way to a screening of Shyamalan’s latest film, Glass. After The Village disappointed countless fans, Shyamalan rapid-fired four of the worst movies […]
NFL 2018 Divisonal Round
January 13, 2019 by
An angrier man would spit out some sort of ALL CAPS excoriation of the goofy ending to the Cowboys-Seahawks game, wherein a freak injury to a 40-year-old professional football player who we had just backhandedly complimented knocked down a domino that tumbled a set of circumstances leading to Seattle being forced to go for two, […]
My Year in Reviews – 2018 Edition
January 6, 2019 by
Resistance is futile. Is it just me or does 2018 feel like it has lasted about a hundred years? Between hurricanes, forest fires, racists, sexual harassers, gun massacres, and the systematic destruction of reason, decency, and ethical governing by the elephant party and the worst president this country has ever seen, I’m surprised aliens haven’t […]
NFL Playoffs: 2018 Wildcard Edition
January 5, 2019 by
If people are upset with that lady from Michigan calling Trump a motherfucker, they must not get out much, and they damn sure don’t read this publication. I think if anyone should be mad, it would be Dan Savage, who rebranded his old catchphrase DTMFA, an acronym for dump the motherfucker already, into ITMFA, and […]
The Favourite

Film Title
The FavouriteSynopsis
A sick and depressed Queen Anne rules England, but with the help of two other women. Three is definitely a crowd.
Director
Yorgos LanthimosCast
Emma Stone
Rachel Weisz
Olivia Colman
James Smith
Nicholos Hoult
Joe Alwyn
The Favourite is yet another brilliant film from the young Greek auteur Yorgos Lanthimos. Unlike his previous films, like The Lobster and The Killing of a Sacred Deer, The Favourite is a vicious comedy and historical period piece, centered around the 18th century royalty in England. Yes, a comedy. We had men in ridiculous and […]

Viggo Mortensen
Mahershala Ail
Linda Cardenelli
Sebastian Maniscalo
Mike Hatton
Dimiter D. Marinov
Other Goodfellas Clones
I’ve been meaning to watch this movie for a while. On the surface we have another get whitey, dumb cracker, Magical Negro, Oscar bait type move. Forrest Gump drives Mr. Daisy to the deep South for racism and abuse. The all-knowing and vastly superior Negro speaks parables of wisdom and tolerance, multiplies the fishes and […]

Roger Guenveur Smith
Luke Gross
Adrian Galley
Langley Kirkwood
I am a big fan of trash cinema and I have come to realize that Steven Seagal movies don’t receive enough attention. [EDITOR’S NOTE: They do at Ruthless] So for my first review, I have spent the hour and a half watching the 2006 film Mercenary for Justice, so that you do not have to. […]

Sherpas
Climbers
Expedition Company Colonialists
Here at Ruthless, we have a fascination with mountain-climbing movies and documentaries. Now that Christmas and the reviews have come and gone, it is time to resume our scrutiny and annoyance with mountain climbing, which has grown into a big business. We have hit the mother-lode with the movie Sherpa. Without Sherpas, there would be […]
NFL Week 17
December 30, 2018 by
Not going to spend my time writing an elegy for the career of Jon Jones, or rather, what Jon Jones could have been. Part of me wants to. Part of me remembers what Jon Jones was, who Jon Jones was, back when he was begging the referee to make him stop battering his opponent, a […]
