Feminist WashPost Movie Critic Says 'Taboo' Ends in Pro-Abortion Films

May 8th, 2022 10:20 PM

In Sunday's Washington Post, liberal chief movie critic Ann Hornaday is again professing her love for abortion movies.

WashPost Film Critic Loves Satanist Movie: So 'Brave' and 'Idealistic'

April 29th, 2019 6:21 AM
When last we discussed Washington Post chief movie critic Ann Hornaday, she was insisting they never reviewed the pro-life movie Unplanned because no one sent them a DVD, and that the pro-lifers had a "false sense of victimhood" in noting the Post refused to review the film. There's still no movie review, so this Friday's Hornaday rave review was a dramatic contrast: the documentary Hail Satan…

On October 12, the movie Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer debuted in 673 theaters on October 12, and grossed $1.2 million in its first weekend.  But The Washington Post offered no review for its debut, although it was showing in eight Virginia theaters and six in Maryland.

Rob Reiner's 'Shock & Awe' Movie About Heroic Liberal Journos Tanked

July 21st, 2018 2:18 PM
Rob Reiner has a new movie named Shock & Awe that celebrates heroic liberal Knight-Ridder reporters who fought the Bush team’s case for war in Iraq. Liberal critics celebrated it as timely, but not as a great movie. It had a terrible opening weekend, grossing only $45,000 at the box office (or $459 a screen). Two movies that debuted on just four screens had much stronger openings.

WashPost Film Critic Oozes Justice Ginsburg is Summer's Hottest Ticket

May 19th, 2018 6:32 PM
Washington Post chief film critic Ann Hornaday demonstrated a little too much feminist enthusiasm in her Friday article in the Style section. The headline was “And the summer box office’s big winner is . . . Ruth Bader Ginsburg?” CNN Films made a gushy Ginsburg documentary called RBG that has grossed two million dollars. Somehow, that makes her comparable to an Avengers movie.

Film Critic: 'Tech-Savvy' Obama ‘Wielded’ Media While Trump's Reckless

April 14th, 2017 6:45 PM
Washington Post film critic Ann Hornaday penned a column for Friday’s paper reviewing President Trump’s first 100 days as if it were a movie, blasting him as dangerous for using friendly outlets to distract from his administration lacking any “core, coherent polic[ies]” that could end in “a train wreck.”

WashPost Adores Another 'Terrific' Myth-Making Movie About Obama

December 16th, 2016 11:51 AM
Washington Post movie critic Ann Hornaday doesn’t just love Barack Obama. She’s loving both Obama biopics. In Friday’s newspaper, she wrote “Remarkably, two movies have come out this year about the young adulthood of Barack Obama. Even more remarkably, they’re both terrific.” The new movie is Barry, coming out on Netflix, with the screenwriter Adam Mansbach borrowing from Obama’s phony memoir…

August 26th, 2016 11:02 PM

WashPost Sneers: Finally ‘Christian Movies for the Rest of Us’

Culture
May 13th, 2016 9:47 AM
Someone really should come up with a typesetter’s font for when our liberal betters to use when forced to write about things they disdain. We could call it “Helvetica Sneer,” and it would save busy cosmopolitan authors a lot of time and trouble.

Top Newspaper Movie Critics Rejoice for New Pro-Abortion Documentary

March 5th, 2016 11:54 AM
One-sided propaganda films celebrating abortion doctors are always an easy demonstration of how liberal the nation's leading newspapers are. All their film critics are celebrating a new documentary called Trapped, which was also promoted in a recent John Oliver pro-abortion rant on his HBO "comedy" show.

Anti-Catholic WashPost Amused by Child Sex Abuse...at the Movies

August 14th, 2015 4:30 PM
While Chris Cuomo worried out loud on Friday about The New York Times questioning an excessive focus on the religion inspiring ISIS when they resort to rape, the same concern about stereotypes didn’t come up pseudo-Catholic Cuomo for the Catholic-bashing front of The Washington Post. In “Pope urged to address clergy sex abuse in visit,” religion correspondent Michelle Boorstein repeats the never-…

WashPost Critic Adores 'Magic Mike,' Compares Strippers to... Priests

July 5th, 2015 12:13 PM
Like The New York Times, The Washington Post also undertook a political tour of the summer movies. Movie critic Ann Hornaday hailed Magic Mike XXL as a harbinger of more progressive male characters who are in touch with their “inner drag queens.” Even stranger, Hornaday labored to compare the stripper corps of Magic Mike XXL to....mendicant priests? Since when do priests bump and grind?
