***Movieline*** was a [Los Angeles](/source/Los_Angeles)–based film and entertainment magazine, launched in 1985 as a local magazine, which went national in 1989. Known for its cult status and popularity among film critics,[1] the magazine eventually was retooled and named ***Movieline's Hollywood Life***, with the website renamed as hollywoodlife.com and the name on the webpage shown as Hollywood Life.

[Penske Media Corporation](/source/Penske_Media_Corporation) bought *Movieline's Hollywood Life* in September 2008 and, in 2009, closed the magazine. At that time, Penske continued the *[Hollywood Life](/source/Hollywood_Life)* website as a "new" standalone entity, while relaunching the original *Movieline* website. The *Hollywood Life* website continues today (2024), but the *Movieline* website closed down sometime in 2014. The last movie review credited to a *Movieline* critic on [Metacritic](/source/Metacritic) was written on 27 July 2014, a retrospective review for the 2010 film *[The Killer Inside Me](/source/The_Killer_Inside_Me_(2010_film))*.[2]

*Movieline* launched a [YouTube](/source/YouTube) channel on 15 August 2012, which no one has taken down as of November 2024[\[update\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Movieline&action=edit); at that date, it holds an assortment of reviews, TV series recaps, interviews, and movie trailers dating from 16 August 2012 (the official trailer for *[The Last Stand](/source/The_Last_Stand_(2013_film))*) through 12 September 2014 (a *Movieline* review of *[Dolphin Tale 2](/source/Dolphin_Tale_2)*).[3]
