Saatva Helps You Sleep Like a (Nepo) Baby
Recently I was invited to a celebration for the new Saatva Las Vegas Viewing Room at Tivoli Village, one of my favorite Summerlin shopping and dining areas. With a husband who is extremely “discerning” about his sleep platforms, it feels like I’ve visited over 1oo mattress showrooms, but I’ve never seen anything quite like this…
I SWEAR Review — Definitely Worth Shouting About
In her I Swear review, Lisa Johnson Mandell says it’s the kind of film that can make a better person of you, with a fuller understanding of the human condition. What could be better than that? I know, I know, if you’re like me, when you see the title of this much awarded biopic, the…
PROJECT HAIL MARY Review — Astoundingly Out of This World
Lisa Johnson Mandell’s Project Hail Mary review says it’s its an immediate sci-fi classic that the whole family will find full of wonder, intrigue and soul.

THE BRIDE! Review — A Stylish Monster Mash-Up Alive With Electricity
Lisa Johnson Mandell’s The Bride! review celebrates the film’s brash, nourish, original take on the Mary Shelley tale and the themes that are applicable today.

31 CANDLES Review — A Rom-Com That Merits Monumental Kvelling
Lisa Johnson Mandell’s 31 Candles review says this is a rom-com that spreads out its warmth and laughs like the coziest of blankets. Here’s a thought experiment. What if Albert Brooks had a bar mitzvah, fell for a woman who could dunk on him at basketball, and somehow turned the whole thing into a clever love…
EPiC – ELIVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT Review — Caught in a Trap
Lisa Johnson Mandell’s EPiC – Elvis Presley in Concert review dethrones the King, and she knows she’s going to take all kinds of heat for it. Bring it! I’ve never been a fan of Elvis Presley. Maybe because I remember him best in his later years, when he seemed to me an overstuffed parody of…

WUTHERING HEIGHTS Review — Lovely, Lusty Literary License
This Wuthering Heights review says this Emerald Fennell’s take on the Gothic classic is a jewel box full of dazzling images that will inflame and intrigue. Those who are concerned that this version of Wuthering Heights strays too far afield from Emily Brontë’s Gothic romance need to understand that writer/director Emerald Fennell never did intend…
