John Clyde
Review: 'The End of Oak Street' is a thrilling throwback to the original '90s blockbusters
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted Aug. 14 - 6:56 p.m.
"The End of Oak Street" is a big, entertaining, original adventure that mixes spectacle with heart, reminding us that the best creature features aren't really about the monsters. They're about the people trying to survive them.
Before Silicon Slopes, there was WordPerfect. New show details company that changed Utah
John Clyde for KSL | Posted Aug. 1 - 9:00 p.m.

Review: 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' proves Tom Holland's Spider-Man still has plenty of life left
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted July 31 - 10:33 a.m.
"Spider-Man: Brand New Day" is another entertaining entry that doesn't quite capture the same magic as its predecessors, yet still reminds us why this version of Spider-Man remains one of Marvel's best.
Review: Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' is a filmmaking marvel that asks a lot of its audience
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted July 16 - 7:01 p.m.
"The Odyssey" is an experience that settles in slowly and asks you to wrestle with it long after the credits roll.
Review: 'Young Washington' is an imperfect film perfect for kicking off the 4th of July
John Clyde for KSL | Posted July 3 - 10:49 p.m.
"Young Washington" isn't a perfect movie but it reminded me why stories about imperfect people often make for the best history.
Review: 'Minions and Monsters' proves you really can have too much of a good thing
John Clyde for KSL | Posted July 2 - 8:30 p.m.
By the time the credits rolled in "Minions and Monsters", I wasn't disappointed. But I was just kind of done before we got there.
World Cup victory is small potatoes for Messi compared to meeting Spider-Man
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted June 30 - 8:30 p.m.
Lionel Messi has met presidents, won World Cups and collected enough trophies to fill a small museum. Apparently, though, meeting Spider-Man still makes the list.
Review: Surprisingly, I actually kind of cared about 'Supergirl'
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted June 25 - 11:26 a.m.
Somewhere underneath "Supergirl's" uneven humor, bizarre alien detours and occasionally exhausting attempts to be quirky is a character I actually wanted to spend time with.
'The Odyssey' just got an R rating. That's a much bigger deal than it sounds
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted June 20 - 8:28 p.m.
"The Odyssey" has received an R rating and that carries more than it may seem for Christopher Nolan's expensive epic.
Review: I can't believe I'm saying this, but Pixar did it again with 'Toy Story 5'
John Clyde for KSL | Posted June 19 - 5:17 p.m.
"Toy Story 5" isn't the best film in the franchise, and it doesn't reach the heights of the original trilogy, but it's a funny, heartfelt and thoroughly enjoyable return to one of Pixar's most beloved worlds.
Review: 'Disclosure Day' proves Steven Spielberg still creates wonder, even if it doesn't stick
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted June 12 - 7:46 p.m.
The good news about Steven Spielberg's new original sci-fi movie, "Disclosure Day," is that I liked it. The bad news is that I wanted to love it.
Review: 'Masters of the Universe' embraces absurdity of He-Man and that's exactly why it works
John Clyde for KSL | Posted June 5 - 9:32 p.m.
"Masters of the Universe" did something very important to make sure it was a film worth seeing: It knew it was ridiculous and it ran with it.
Review: 'The Mandalorian and Grogu' is basically a big-budget TV episode and that's mostly fine
John Clyde for KSL | Posted May 22 - 3:16 p.m.
The good news about "The Mandalorian and Grogu" is that it's entertaining. The less exciting news? It mostly feels like several episodes of a TV show stitched together into a movie.
Review: 'The Sheep Detectives' is one of the biggest family movie surprises of the year
John Clyde for KSL | Posted May 8 - 5:36 p.m.
"The Sheep Detectives" sounded interesting enough, but what I wasn't prepared for was how funny, charming, and genuinely engaging this movie would be.
Review: 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' proves there's still life left in familiar characters
John Clyde for KSL | Posted May 1 - 3:12 p.m.
Heading to see "The Devil Wears Prada 2" 20 years later, I wasn't dreading it. I was cautiously optimistic. And thankfully, that optimism paid off.
Review: 'Michael' leans hard on nostalgia but sidesteps the full story
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted April 25 - 8:31 p.m.
Love him or hate him, we all know Michael Jackson's music and most of us remember the massive superstar he was. Now, we get that in a biopic, kind of.
Utah filmmaker took a Regency romance from Lehi to England, and now to No. 1 on Amazon
John Clyde for KSL | Posted April 5 - 9:00 p.m.
It's not every day a Utah filmmaker takes on a Regency romance (think Jane Austen), crowdfunds the whole thing and then watches it climb to No. 1 on Amazon.
'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' trailer teases a more mature Peter Parker
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted March 18 - 8:37 p.m.
The first trailer for "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" has officially dropped, and for fans of Tom Holland's web-slinger, it's been a long time coming.
Review: 'Project Hail Mary' launches summer season with heart, humor and a whole lot of science
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted March 13 - 12:37 p.m.
Once in a while a movie comes along, that reminds us why the big screen still matters. "Project Hail Mary" was one of those movies for me.
Review: 'Hoppers' shows Pixar is still searching for its former magic
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted March 5 - 6:34 p.m.
It feels like that special magic that Pixar used to produce consistently has been fading for a while now, and sadly, "Hoppers" doesn't do much to bring it back.
Review: 'Scream 7' tries to go back to its roots, but forgets what made them work
VideoJohn Clyde for KSL | Posted Feb. 27 - 6:36 p.m.
I wouldn't say I was overly excited for "Scream 7," but I was cautiously optimistic. Unfortunately it felt forced from the opening scene to the final reveal.
Review: 'Send Help' is a wild, uncomfortable ride
John Clyde for KSL | Posted Jan. 29 - 6:01 p.m.
"Send Help" is certainly a lot of things. But out of all of those I'm not sure any of them were for me.
Review: '28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' is an entertaining detour but a noticeable step down
John Clyde for KSL | Posted Jan. 16 - 7:33 p.m.
Here's what worked, what didn't and why "The Bone Temple" ultimately feels more like franchise maintenance than meaningful evolution.
