Selma isn't a film that will be shown in grade school history classes. But it's the film that *should* be shown in grade school history classes.

While 'Blackhat' does hacking well and hints at the depths of cyberterrorism and a dichotomy of tangible and virtual threats, it's primarily a stylish but dull thriller that never quite satisfies.

Despite having all the elements of one, 'Big Eyes' isn't a very Tim Burton-esque film but more a straight-up biopic that effectively allows stars Christoph Waltz and Amy Adams to display their acting chops.

We may only be scratching the surface of what 2015 has to offer, but part of the fun of fandom is anticipation. Here are the 10 films that we at Pop Mythology are most anticipating for next year.

Here are twelve movies to watch when you feel stuck or trapped in any life situation. They will provide you with the lessons and inspirations that you need to power up and break free.

Benson Lee is a filmmaker I've had the great pleasure of working with on numerous occasions, so I was thrilled to learn that his newest film, Seoul Searching, was chosen as part of the Premiere Lineup in the 2015 Sundance Film Festival.

'Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1' confidently delivers on its themes, even as it holds back its biggest, boldest statements for the next film.

'Big Hero 6' is the new toy your kid will love intensely for a week and break in a month. Or the new big kid toy smartphone that will be obsolete next year.

'Interstellar' is that rare epic where the ideas and execution are so enthralling that we are eager to view its missteps as simply part of the journey.

'Birdman' is one of those rare films in which characters, setting, plot, music, humor, dialogue, imagery, and even meta-textual elements fit perfectly together.

If 'Star Wars Rebels' is any indication, Disney understands exactly what made the original trilogy so great. The Force is strong in this one.

'Fury' is similar to war itself: it's grim, relentless, filled with stark and stunning visuals, a lot of people die, and ultimately there is little to no meaning.

While the twisted story of 'Gone Girl' takes some effective stabs at meaning, it's most enjoyed when looked at for what it is, a story.

Saw was pretty much the film that kicked off the current torture horror craze, and this Halloween, on the movie's 10th anniversary, Lionsgate will be re-releasing the film in theaters for a special, limited run.

Although not entirely novel or even logical, the world of 'The Maze Runner' maintains momentum through its slow bits and cliches.
