Flick fights back tears as Barca seal LaLiga title with Clasico triumph

BARCELONA, May 10 : An emotional Hansi Flick celebrated guiding Barcelona to their 29th LaLiga title on Sunday, delivering a commanding 2-0 Clasico win over Real Madrid hours after his father passed away overnight. The German manager took his place on the sidelines at a sold-out Camp Nou despite his personal tragedy, steering his side to a result that put Barca out of reach of their rivals with three matches to play. Before kickoff, the stadium observed a minute’s silence in tribute. Broadcast images showed Flick in tears, comforted by members of his technical staff and players in a poignant moment that set an emotionally charged tone for the evening. On the pitch, Barcelona delivered the flourish to a campaign built on momentum, nerve and an unwavering commitment to attack, cementing Flick’s bond with a demanding fan base who have embraced his bold and aggressive approach. “It was a tough match and I’ll never forget this day,” an emotional Flick said to a packed Camp Nou during the title celebrations. “I want to thank the …

Chimp Slasher Flick ‘Primate’ Hits Streaming. Warning: This Ain’t No Punch the Monkey Story

If you’ve been yearning to watch a horror film about a killer animal similar in tone to, say, Stephen King’s Cujo, I’ve got some good news for you. Primate will stream soon. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you’re in for a ride. Primate follows a pretty simple story: A group of friends is repeatedly attacked by Ben, the family chimpanzee. As you can see from the trailer below, the cute pet turns savage and does some unspeakable things to the folks he used to cohabit peacefully with. This ain’t no cuddly Punch the monkey story. And for that matter, it’s no Bubbles story either, but never mind, go ask your parents. Johnny Sequoyah stars alongside Jessica Alexander, Oscar-winner Troy Kotsur, Victoria Wyant, Gia Hunter, Benjamin Chang, Charlie Mann, Tienne Simon and Miguel Torres Umba, who plays Ben. The film is helmed by The Strangers: Prey at Night director Johannes Roberts. Keep reading for more info on when Primate will premiere and how to watch it with a VPN. When to watch Primate …

Dave Bautista & Jason Momoa Action Flick

Dave Bautista & Jason Momoa Action Flick

Big guys beating bad guys, and occasionally each other, to a pulp is the basic idea behind the new Prime Video action movie starring Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa. In the unimaginatively titled The Wrecking Crew (not to be confused with the 2008 music doc or the cheesy 1968 Dean Martin movie), the two oversized, testosterone-laden actors play estranged half-brothers who team up to investigate their father’s mysterious hit-and-run death in the scenic environs of Honolulu. Yes, it’s the sort of buddy cop action-comedy that was once a multiplex staple but is now largely relegated to streaming. Although this Prime Video offering proves a lot more entertaining than the Chris Pratt starrer Mercy that was just released in theaters. The Wrecking Crew doesn’t set out to reinvent the formula, but rather luxuriate in it. All of the familiar tropes are there, from the numerous pop songs peppering the action (including one by Phil Collins, just to remind you of Miami Vice) to the profane banter between the two main characters to the endless fights, shootouts …
