Vertical’s “The Good Mother” is filmed and based in New York. Believe it or not, it wasn’t shot in Georgia! Sorry. That’s a personal thing… onto the review. It’s directed by Miles Joris-Peyrafitte, whose work has mostly been short films. Good for him to be moving up! It’s written by both him and Madison Harrison. They also worked together on the feature film named “As You Are.”
This movie is the female version of Mission Impossible. Nothing wrong with that, right guys?

Coming out today is “The Baker.” It was filmed in the Cayman Islands in 2021. You finally get to see their work. The plot is relatively simple. It stars Ron Perlman, the huge man you’ll never not see as “Hell Boy.” He also had a stint on “Sons of Anarchy” as Clay Marrow and he had a role as Curtis Sunday in a little-known film that I happen to love (and you should see) called “Local Color.”

This movie starts out with a “BANG!” We begin with a New Year’s celebration and for some reason, the way it was all set in motion made me think of the Kathryn Bigelow film “Strange Days.” This being the case, I was expecting a three-minute-long POV shot. However, I was taken by surprise by what came next.
