Charlie Heaton, Anya Taylor-Joy, Blu Hunt, Henry Zaga and Maisie Williams (L-R) star in "New Mutants." Disney "New Mutants" will finally arrive in theaters this Friday after nearly three years of bouncing around the theatrical calendar. However, if you are looking to get a sense of how critics felt about the film before buying tickets for the weekend, you'll find the Rotten Tomatoes' review pages surprisingly bare.  That's because Disney isn't making the film available to press via an advanced screening or through a digital link. "In other words, the only way critics will be able to see 'The New Mutants' is if they buy a ticket and go to a theater, just like everyone else," A.A. Dowd, a film editor from The A.V. Club, wrote in an article Tuesday. "In normal ...

There are “a lot more questions that need to be answered” regarding former FBI Director James Comey's recent response to the Durham probe, according to Carter Page, former foreign policy adviser to Donald Trump. Comey spoke dismissively of Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham's investigation of the origins of the bureau's Russia probe Sunday, saying he has not been contacted for it and that it is being used as a political tool for President Trump and his supporters. In an interview that aired Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation," Comey insisted that everyone involved in the investigation was "trying to do the right thing" and therefore Durham's probe was not concerning for him. "I have had no contact with him and haven’t talked to him," Comey said about Durham, adding, “I can’t imagine t...
