Despite the central hardship and the constant threat of society’s merciless judgment, the film remains unpredictable and hopeful. Review
Not every gag lands (a couple actually fall quite flat), with a few portions meandering a touch, but several definitely stand out, sure to endure... Review
It’s nevertheless minimally amusing to see the collection of speed demons get killed off in ever more explosive ways, as they’re entirely unsympathetic and scripted solely as implacable bullies worthy of untimely demises. Review
Even framing the film with a court case provides negligible titillation, since motives are so transparent and unwavering. The end may be fitting, but it’s neither unexpected nor emotionally satisfying. Review
It’s difficult to dredge up much sympathy for personas that feel so inauthentic – and behave so recklessly. Review
Unfortunately, though a notable experiment in furthering the legacy of this famous movie monster, it’s very far from solid entertainment. Review
The unsteady nature of the comedy is immensely disappointing for a project that depends so singularly upon it. Review
Its quickness, crispness, visual excitement, and routine entertainment value are transitory; A Quiet Place: Day One doesn’t really add much to the world of noise-sensitive world-conquerors. It’s quite far from a necessary installment. Review
Yet even with the return of likable characters and the imaginativeness (and hilarity) of how a personality can be crafted – and then reshaped – by aging and the onset of disruptive hormones, Inside Out 2 doesn’t pack the poignant wallop of its predecessor. Review
As it turns out, however, the comedy is generally more effective than the action, particularly when the stars must shoot their way out of preposterously deadly situations... Review
This brief narrative reveals few original or eye-opening revelations, considering the pointed visuals of a psychosomatically manipulated soul, other than the reiteration of the significance of having a dependable friend in a moment of danger. Review
As for the technical side, the film is nicely shot, with crisp cinematography. Yet even with its two leads working well under the instruction of writer/director Jay Liu, minor background elements tend to shake viewers from the authenticity of Wong and Kam’s performances. Review
But as every subsequent chapter unfolds (a narrative scheme that tends to stifle the pacing, which already has issues due to the lengthy runtime), revisiting recognizable regions and reintroducing placeable people, it merely feels like more of the same. Review
Room Taken is quite efficient and effective during its brief runtime. It also helps that stars Adewusi and Brennan are first-rate, emoting effortlessly through expressions and idiosyncrasies rather than needlessly wordy dialogue. Review
It’s exceptionally well-designed, consistently engaging, and quite the adventure – a wonderful feat for a project whose top three billings are for apes. Review
The acting is exceptional (lead Lorena also wrote and directed), which greatly elevates the picture’s modest production values. Review
Despite the femme fatales, the drugs, the dead bodies, and the excitement of chases and showdowns, the bulk of the picture is about highlighting stunts and the people involved in making them look good. Review
It’s a swift, engaging watch, boosted by excellent sound effects, camerawork, lighting, and music; competent technical aspects certainly aid in what could have been a far more forgettable glance at Norwegian housing policies. Review
The acting is first-rate and the cinematography is crisp; the production values definitely help “Grandma Bruce” to be a capably-made picture, veiling the shoe-string budget, even if the parting-shot resonance is a touch wobbly. Review
Many of the action shots are genuinely exciting. But since everyone is comedic and insincere, suspense and consequences are terribly fleeting. Review
It’s a clever concept for a short subject, aided by convincing acting and excellent visual effects, blending computer-animated components with endearingly old-fashioned makeup. Review
The realism is extraordinary. Writer/director Alex Garland is occasionally preoccupied with capturing fragility, futility, and the viciousness of humankind in alternately shocking and beautiful cinematographic frames, which nicely complement striking character arcs. Review
The artistic distortions grow so hallucinatory and distracting at times that it feels as if watching the film while being waterboarded. In the end, the vengeance is engaging, but the exposition is dull – and they’re not dispensed in the proportions viewers will want. Review
