It’s not easy having eyes all over the scene, being around to take in all the wild visuals at all the worthwhile places in the city. There are, however, those parties and gallery openings where a fortunate photographer can point and shoot. Every week, in collaboration with WorldRedEye, New Times…
A new Miami Vice TV series is in the works, but what does it mean for the Magic City?
“Don’t shoot the messenger.” That’s the age-old expression reminding us not to blame the bringer of bad news. It isn’t their fault, after all. But what if the messenger is kind of a dick? Can we at least punch him? Bill Maher has made a career of dropping bad-news bombs on the public during times of political wars, which is just about always.

Give Putin this: The man knows how to deny his government’s elaborate, outrageous conspiracies violating international laws and norms. To this day, despite the 37 medals that have been stripped from his nation’s Olympians, Putin insists that Russia never engaged in a longrunning campaign of doping its athletes and then…
Thursday Even if you haven’t smoked lots of psychoactive drugs, you’ve probably spent more time than you’d like to admit staring at those screen savers that change shapes based on the music that’s playing. PAMM’s latest Free Community Night is taking this concept to a new level with Sacred Geometry,…
At the Tidally United Summit, taking place August 4 and 5, a group of archaeologists, geologists, academics, activists, and local legislators will gather at the Native Learning Center in Hollywood to discuss the impact of climate change from an angle that’s often overlooked: its effect on indigenous communities and cultural heritage.
Man, it’s a hot one. This summer is a miserable mixture of extreme heat and rain. Instead of suffering outside, keep dry and cool inside one of your local art cinemas. With the continuing growth of the repertory cinema scene in Miami, there are a ton of options for classic films to improve your cinematic literacy while also providing a good time.
Only slowly does it become clear that Comrade Detective, a star-driven meta-prank cop-show curio, isn’t supposed to suck. This fact hit me early in the second episode, a full hour into this squirmiest of prestige streaming series, when the comedy’s winking premise — that we’re watching a well-regarded but propagandistic…
In 2014, the German-born, Miami-based artist Dara Friedman’s film about a local man, Ishmael Bermudez, earned a showing at Art Basel Miami Beach.

Who came out on top and who got the short end of the lightsaber Florida Supercon 2017?
I sincerely hope that there’s a five-hour cut of Kathryn Bigelow’s Detroit somewhere, a version with cleaner through-lines, deeper characterizations and a more organic narrative. But the version that we have right now — a messy, troubling beast clocking in at around 150 minutes — is riveting in its own…

It’s August, which means it’s even hotter than July and you need TV now more than ever! The planet is hot, but you watching TV in your underwear with a fan pointed directly at your swimsuit parts is even hotter! Have at it! Manhunt: Unabomber, Aug. 1 (Discovery) Essentially, this…
It’s hard to imagine a less promising film title than An Inconvenient Sequel. Maybe Another Imposition Upon Your Time? It’s clear, in the opening minutes, as we watch him shake off the slights and smears of his critics, that Al Gore is too savvily upbeat a technocrat to give the…
You can go late-night bowling, celebrate Whitney Houston’s birthday, or chow down on some grilled goods this week without the anxiety of wondering where your money is going, ’cause you won’t need to spend it.
At 5 p.m. Thursday, I became one of the first people in this country to see The Emoji Movie a second time. (Aside, obviously, from the folks who made it — though I’m not entirely sure that some of them actually bothered to see it all the way through once.)…
Earlier this year, the film Moonlight won critics’ hearts. The story, adapted from a Tarell Alvin McCraney play by his fellow Liberty City-raised director Barry Jenkins, proved to the world that Miami is fertile ground for filmmakers. Now, Quiet on the Set! hopes to educate Miami’s next Barry Jenkins…
From Questlove at Floyd to ’80s Flashback Fest at Churchill’s, these are the best things to do in Miami this weekend.
It’s not easy having eyes all over the scene, being around to take in all the wild visuals at all the worthwhile places in the city. There are, however, those parties and gallery openings where a fortunate photographer can point and shoot. Every week, in collaboration with WorldRedEye, New Times…
