Despite his unending oddness, the character is amusing; he’s an unorthodox protagonist, but a fitting one for this comical, fantasy premise. Review
It may be an important film (it’s certainly noteworthy based on its minority-led cast), but its ordinariness and slow pacing contribute to few outstanding, memorable sequences – or an unforgettable whole. Review
For a movie that could have been both dramatic and chilling, it’s instead strangely unaffecting. Genuinely emotional shots are fleeting, even when stark injustice and violence enter the frame... Review
This is an aggravatingly lusterless, entertain-less finisher for a gruelingly uncreative trilogy (with what has got to be one of the most uninspired of all movie titles). Review
It remains an amusing yet empty sort of project, alluring as it transpires but evanescent once it ends. Review
Like other anthologies, the work as a whole is often dragged down by its weakest constituents (of which this has many, since most of the tales are overly familiar and unexceptional), which is exactly what causes this particular endeavor to suffer. Review
The concept of an independent, unbiased newspaper is laughable even in this era, just as the bulk of the story plays out in a generic, predictable manner, with a climax that is about as implausible and idealistic as they come. Review
It’s a serviceable, obscure little production, capturing the feel of countless other supernatural horror pictures from the ’80s, with a decent quality and a couple of striking sequences. Review
It’s all meant to be an exercise in a Sherlock Holmes failure of sorts, but when it’s not presented purely as comedy, it becomes a rather unamusing way to watch the iconic shamus work. Review
Thanks to top-rate acting and a genuine feel for down-to-earth scripting, it’s never difficult to believe in her authenticity. Review
Unfortunately, even with a few decent laughs and unforgettable antagonists, the end result isn’t spectacular; it’s a unique sci-fi genre blend, recalling productions from a bygone era of schlockier monster movies, but it’s only moderately entertaining. Review
A few jump scares do crop up, while several scenes are dragged out as the camera follows players moving throughout poorly-lit rooms, suggesting that something shocking might happen at any moment. But very little does. Review
Volume 2 just can’t live up to the pacing and intensity – the rollercoaster ride – of its predecessor, feeling like a duller, inferior half, even if it presents an uncommonly suitable conclusion. Review
It ends as vaguely as it begins, yet with a distinct sense of satisfaction and unexplainable resoluteness, as if something profound has unfolded amid the odd plainness of it all. Review
Saturn 3 is the type of production that had immense potential, but just couldn’t figure out a way to make something from its curiously adequate resources. Review
With equal portions of humor and heart, this inventive, touching, poetic fairy tale is highly memorable, even if it borrows routinely from prior properties, gothically twisting them into Burton’s signature vision. Review
Wilder’s sense of comic timing merged with lighthearted romance is pure entertainment – and quite the accomplishment as only his second directorial effort. Review
At least the cinematography is fantastic, managing to capture the look of a nostalgic picture from the ‘80s – even though visual excellence here has no bearing on the quality of the story. Review
The adventure is effective, the humor is amusing, and the conclusion is satisfying – even if the end result is only moderately engaging rather than emotionally powerful or thematically resonant. Review
Though it would make a splash both critically and commercially during its theatrical run, as well as spawn numerous sequels, it’s too straightforward and predictable to be memorable beyond the mere imagery of ’50s-levels of violence and Dracula’s specific appearance. Review
Most of the characters are blandly designed and thoroughly unsympathetic, making it difficult to care if anyone survives the slaughters or finds a solution to the devilish possessions and werewolf-ish transformations... Review
The entertainment value is about the same as before, failing to change up the formula to a worthwhile degree – even if the finale is appropriately action-packed and bloodthirsty. Review
It’s intoxicating and extreme in its focus and perspective (running a touch overlong as it reiterates its themes a few too many times) – and highly compelling (even if the conclusion is tidier than anticipated). Review
The end result may be highly unusual (and noncommercial) and untraditionally un-cinematic, but it’s nevertheless sweet and touching, embellished with moments of effective humor and stirring sentimentality. Review
