Movies & TV & Theater on The Jitney is Miami’s cultural corner booth, the one where the cortadito hits hard and the takes hit harder. This page is for people who live their lives between art openings, Heat games, and late-night arguments about whether the new A24 movie was genius or basura. Everything here moves with Miami speed. Reviews are not academic snoozers. They’re fast, emotional, sunburned dispatches from someone who has seen too much, feels too much, and still shows up for another round.

Film coverage jumps from Wynwood-indie-weirdo vibes to blockbuster spectacle at Dolphin Mall. TV gets the same locally-sourced treatment. Prestige dramas, trash TV, guilty pleasures you’d never admit at Panther Coffee but binge anyway at 2 a.m.

Theater, though — that’s where the page breathes. Broadway, Off-Broadway, tiny Miami rooms where the AC barely works. If a show risks something, if it tries, if it even thinks about having corazón, it finds a home here.
This isn’t some neutral critic voice. It’s Miami talking. Sweaty, loud, honest, a little chaotic, and deeply in love with storytelling — the kind that rearranges your soul, at least for the night.
