Movie reviews of Alex Brannan

Has the unrestrained raw energy needed to make the X-Men universe interesting. Review

It is Huller and her character that shine, carrying this film to somewhere higher. Review

A noble effort that is wonderful to look at, if there is enough else there to warrant looking for the entire length of the film. Review

A messy script that lacks intrigue and narrative drive. Review

Marked by its poignancy and unfortunate temporal relevance. Review

The film, given its short runtime and superficial subject matter, is harmless. But it is a harmless that comes off as bland. Review

The acting, the cinematography, the costume design, the stunt choreography. It is all fantastic. Review

There is only one moment in the film that is genuinely, unironically amusing. Review

Not a work of art, but for an action film it is quite exquisite to take in. Review

Enough zany humor to satisfy the average child-parent moviegoing pair. Review

It is something unique which takes the familiar and bends it into a chilling masterpiece of dread. Review

Boldly ambiguous. Review

A messy film coming from a director who shows passion enough. Review

Something to behold, an achievement of visual storytelling. Review

The arcs of highs and lows within the film are, beat for beat, emotionally rich and unflinchingly human... Review

An expertly handled film about those who experienced the harrowing events that caused the BP oil spill... Review

The characters interact with each other in some interesting ways, particularly given the lack of depth. But it’s just not enough. Review

While nowhere near perfect thriller territory, it offers viewers a fun romp, a charge led by McAvoy’s fantastic performance. Review

The scripting and performances keep the film from losing its direction, and, ultimately, propel this struggle... Review

An exceedingly simplistic narrative with deeper and more complex issues laying beneath the surface. Review

The film we have today does not do justice to those affected. Review

Either the scene is utterly bland or it is hilariously ill-conceived. Review

Lacks the action-packed intensity that the James Bond franchise is known for. Review

There is enough of a feel-good story to appease the average viewer, but it is a story with nothing novel in its bones. Review
